I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who has been working in this field for over 24 years. I have a Masters Degree from Georgia State University and The Psychological Studies Institute. I have also garnered a Specialist degree from Georgia State University. I have worked in a multitude of settings and I am well prepared to help you with your specific needs. The counseling process is a safe place where you can grow in areas of your life and come to a greater sense of well-being over time. I come from an Adlerian and Cognitive Behavioral background. From our time together we will look at core thoughts and beliefs and beliefs that you have exhibited throughout your life. We will examine how these patterns have affected you in the past and how they are affecting you now. We will also process where these patterns may have come from and how they may have formed. I want you to know that counseling is a process of self-discovery and you are the one in charge of the path that we go. I will be a guide assisting you along this path and encouraging you to push deeper so that you can reach the goals that you have stated. The pace will be up to you but be reminded that you will get out what you are willing to put into the process. I truly do look forward to working with you on this journey and speaking to you in future sessions.

In life we experience mountain highs and valley lows. Some experiences may knock us back a few steps, but then we can shake the dust off and keep moving forward. Other times, situations arise that may knock us off our feet or cause us to be stuck for a period of time not knowing how to proceed from that place. It is during those times we decide to seek assistance to help us navigate through. It can be a humbling experience to admit the need for help and the last thing one needs is someone judging them or making them feel worse after talking with them. Welcome to the judgment-free zone! My name is Tyshon Waters. I am a compassionate, licensed clinician with over 10 years of experience in the mental health field. I utilize a variety of counseling tools to include person-centered, CBT, and motivational interviewing.
