Kelley McCahill

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


My name is Kelley McCahill and I am a Counselor. I work with adults in the state of Georgia through Headway. My practice is entirely virtual, to make therapy more accessible in this hectic, busy world. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, as well as a Certified Addictions Counselor. I have 17 years of experience helping people change patterns that no longer serve them. I enjoy collaborating with humans who struggle with depression, anxiety, and/or addiction issues. Mental, physical, and spiritual recovery are possible, together. I am irreverent, open, and humorous in my approach. I respect my clients’ autonomy, and genuinely believe they have the answers, but might need the right tools.

Roy Woods

Roy Woods

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


In 1986, my journey in the field of human services began, fueled by a lifelong passion for helping others. Majoring in the Human Services concentration at high school laid the groundwork for my unwavering commitment to this mission.

Upon earning a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's in Science with a counseling specialty, my formal training commenced in 2002. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience and expertise, working in diverse settings. Anxiety, stress, worry, uncertainty, addictions and fear don't have to define your life. With over 16 years of clinical experience, I help individuals, couples, and families identify the beliefs, thought patterns, and automatic behaviors that keep them feeling stuck.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.
