Kalene McSwain-Faulkner
Hello! You can call me Kalene (Kay-lean)! I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 2015 and a social worker since 2013. I am experienced and what I like to call seasoned, as life has taught me many things through times of sorrow, pain, grief, and, other times, so much joy. My knowledge also comes from higher education and practice of that knowledge throughout my career. Each year, I meet licensing requirements by yearly obtaining continuing educational credits. Additionally, I am a doctorate student who completed all coursework with a 4.0 and in the research phase. Further, I am well-rounded and have experience working with young and older clients. Serving ten years in the military taught me how to and the importance of working with an array of different people from various backgrounds, ethnicities, ages, religions, sexualities, and overall different socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds. My passion is in supporting others through multiple parts of their journeys utilizing practical, evidence-based approaches. Some therapy strategies may include cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing techniques, supportive therapy, narrative therapy, mindfulness, whole health, and a variety of other strategies or a mixture thereof. I want you to know that therapy is a process. The changes you want to see will only happen after some time, more than likely, but will result from various interactions we will have together, which will make a difference. I often refer to therapy as going to a chiropractor. You do not go to a chiropractor and say give me a spine. You have a spine, and all you need is an alignment. This means you are the true expert in your life, and you do have what you need. My plan in this current stage of your journey is to help you use what you have; sometimes, it just takes aligning things differently. I look forward to supporting you by first listening, clarifying what is heard, and advocating for your individuality, even in your partnership or marriage. Therapy strategies are not a one-size-fits-all. If you do not wish to have someone highly motivated, a positive and rational thinker who continually supports the use of your strengths and believes that YOU CAN every time, then I am not the one for you. I also incorporate many coaching and motivational principles as they are a part of my personality. Remember, you are unique, and for me to adjust what is needed, I will need your feedback and honesty regarding what is working or what you may need more. I look forward to supporting you during this part of your journey. Please participate and trust the process. Trust is a big word, but it will be well worth the journey!

When individuals are experiencing challenges and confusion in their lives they often seek counseling with a trained professional. Most end up feeling that they wish they had looked for help sooner. It is become something that people are now proud to say “my therapist”. It means that you want to better understand yourself and your situation and that you are not afraid to ask for help. I have been told that I put clients at ease with my way of accepting all situations as life challenges. I have worked with individuals, parents, children and couples for over 20 years as a teacher, therapist and personal coach. I have a wealth of experience to bring to my work and I love helping people find solutions and insight into their lives. I’m confident that together we can work to equip you with the tools to face and overcome your challenges. Whether you are struggling with life transitions, retirement, aging, anxiety, or relationship issues, it is important that you know you don’t have to be alone in this journey. As a therapist I value: -the healing power of the therapeutic relationship -a safe and encouraging atmosphere -respect for the individual If you are ready to work toward what you really want, I’m ready when you are!

Larri Rose
I am a Client Centered & Strength Based therapist who incorporates some Cognitive Behavior Therapy techniques. I have been licensed in Georgia with over 10 years of experience as a National Board Certified School counselor. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2015 to provide non-school based therapy. I specialize in providing therapeutic services to all ages. I have worked with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, stress management, anger management, relationship issues, grief, conflict resolution, parenting concerns, & career challenges. I have also helped many people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse. I would describe my own counseling approach as one that is empathetic and gentle, and yet encourages accountability and responsibility in clients. I use a Carl Rogers approach coupled with Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Solution-focused techniques. I think it is important to meet each client exactly where he or she is on an individual basis without biases or prejudice. I structure my approach as one where I allow my clients to be open and honest with me while clarifying healthy boundaries that establish respect and independence. I desire for each of my clients to know, understand, and feel that I am respectful and supportive of their own goals and their progression. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I was trained at Mercer University under a CACREP (Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs) methodology. Under the CACREP methodology, Mercer University was dedicated to ensuring that as future counselors we understood, practiced, and upheld the ethical standards outlined by the American Counseling Association (ACA) when working with clients of all ages and from all backgrounds. It takes great courage to acknowledge you are in need of support and even greater courage to seek support. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
