Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Albany, GA

I have a passion for working with individuals and couples in the LGBTQ+ community. I enjoy providing individuals with support and guidance as they learn to understand and accept their gender and/or sexual identity. Additionally, I enjoy working with couples as they explore consensual non-monogamy and how to effectively navigate an open relationship.

The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a diverse background from working with military, children and family’s, substance abuse, mental health and other populations. I graduated with my masters degree in 2016 from the University of Southern Mississippi located in Longbeach Mississippi after my military service. I like for anyone that I and providing services a service to feel safe and open.

• Authentic, community focused, and candid. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine connection, not a clinical interview.
• The Toolkit: I lean on heavy hitters like DBT and CBT, plus a little Gottman magic for relationships. In Essence, I give you the tools to regulate your emotions and distress to be able to get through the "tough stuff."
• The Specialties: I’m your go-to for navigating life transitions, self esteem/self worth, mastering relationship dynamics, or finding your footing as a young adult.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Hi, I'm Manas, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years experience working with clients from all walks of life. I've focused on helping individuals through anxiety, low self-esteem, major life changes, issues in relationships, low confidence, anger problems, stress related to education, issues at work, and addiction. I received my Master's in Social Work from the University of Georgia. In my free time I enjoy music, movies, art, poetry, family, and friends. Out of pocket charge is negotiable depending on your financial situation.

I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.

I work with clients ages 13 and up, couples, and families navigating grief, loss, PTSD, men’s issues, trauma, substance use, relationship stress, and seasons where life feels heavier than usual. Some clients come in after a specific loss or painful experience. Others are trying to make sense of anxiety, depression, identity questions, family patterns, or the pressure to keep functioning when things do not feel okay inside.

My background spans addiction recovery, group facilitation, crisis work, and private practice, so I am comfortable sitting with both everyday stress and the harder things people often feel they have to hide. My style is direct, engaged, and real. I use humor when it fits, show up as a full person, and genuinely care about helping you sort through what feels heavy, confusing, or stuck.

Many people spend years carrying anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, grief, addiction, or overwhelming emotions while continuing to show up for everyone else. On the outside it may seem like you're managing, but inside you feel exhausted, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. You don't have to navigate that alone.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 15 years of experience, I provide a supportive, compassionate space where you can feel heard, understood, and respected. My work often focuses on helping individuals navigating anxiety, bipolar disorder, addiction recovery, identity concerns, women's issues, and major life transitions. Together, we'll explore what's contributing to your struggles, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, resilience, and long-term emotional wellness.
