I am a Masters-level therapist dual-licensed in clinical mental health counseling and addictions counseling in North Carolina and Georgia. I am a Level II Certified Attachment-Based Family Therapist and a Certified Adoption Competent Therapist. I am also certified in Natural Flow EMDR. I specialize in treating adolescents, young adults, parents, and families who are struggling with a variety of mental health symptoms and behavioral problems.
Hi, I’m Shanae Benito, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with support, compassion, and practical tools for change. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based practices including TF-MCBT (Trauma-Focused Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy) while creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and seen. I believe healing is not about having all the answer. It's about taking the next step forward together.
Greetings!
As a therapist, I believe it is important to walk in your purpose and I believe I do that every day. My name is Laijun English, and I am a counselor that provides treatment for teens and adults dealing with life’s challenges. I have Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Georgia Southwestern State University and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Fort Valley State University.
If your child is struggling with big feelings, hard behaviors, or school-related stress, you have found a safe place. I have worked alongside kids, teens, and their families since
2005, creating a playful, welcoming space where they can finally feel understood. I draw from play therapy, AutPlay, and creative approaches tailored to your child's
personality and developmental stage. I also partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports so your child is not doing this work alone. My goal is to help them
understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.
I am Dr. Robinette Muse, licensed professional counselor with a practice in Newnan,Georgia. I have practiced for twenty seven years and have been in the behavioral health field 40 years. My primary specialty is trauma and grief counseling and I treat ages four to ninety.
I have practiced in the community and in clinic settings, private and public mental health. My focus with my clients is to help them heal and thrive.
Personally I spend my non work time gardening and learning naturopathic healing. I am a proud mother of one son and a new daughter-in-love.
I work with adults who are feeling overwhelmed by work stress, family dynamics, relationship strain, and the pressure of trying to hold everything together. Many of my clients are trying to manage anxiety, set better boundaries, make time for themselves, and figure out how to move through life changes without feeling constantly drained. Some are navigating divorce, complicated parental relationships, family chaos, caregiving stress, or the emotional impact of raising a child with disabilities or health challenges. Others are trying to build confidence in the workplace, navigate tokenism and racial identity in the workplace, and find steadier footing in friendships, relationships, and everyday life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Albany
Searching for therapists in Albany starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or work with couples and families. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand their style, focus areas, and what sessions may be like.
In a smaller city like Albany, local appointment options may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Georgia. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home or work, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility. Before booking, review whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation to help you assess fit.
Therapy in Albany can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review estimated out-of-pocket costs, and book directly when you are ready. You can browse therapist profiles, compare availability, and find someone who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
