ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Athens, GA

Hi! My name is Sade Bowman and I am a LPC in Georgia. I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from GSU and a Master's degree in Counseling from Mercer University. I have 5 years of experience specializing in youth, teens, and adults adjusting to life changes, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, traumatic past, anger issues, ADHD, Autism, and abandonment/attachment issues. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, enjoying nature, art, music, exercise/yoga, hiking, concerts, and traveling.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult seasons. I’ve worked in community mental health, court systems, and outpatient programs — serving youth, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and major life transitions.

If you’re someone who has had to be “the strong one,” the responsible one, or the one who figures it out for everyone else — I see you.

Many of the people I work with are high-functioning but internally exhausted. They show up for work, for family, for everyone — but struggle privately with overwhelm, burnout, shame, or frustration.

My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to perform. You don’t have to shrink. You don’t have to explain cultural context. You can show up fully — and we work from there.

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.

My mother taught me and my brothers from a very young age not to ever hate anyone. Her words have been invaluable to me. My father instilled in us boys a mantra that too has served me well. He said to us innumerable times "Listen." Neither of my parents were strict disciplinarians, and they never used corporal punishment. But, from boyhood, through adolescence and into young adulthood, my brothers and I could count on a well-deserved lecture and extra chores if either of my parents ever caught us breaking one of these rules. My parents' philosophy helped steer me into my life's work, and I employ their beliefs daily in my career as a therapist. I believe people seek counseling so they can be accepted, validated and heard. I committed to myself long ago to never hate and to always listen to my patients/clients/consumers, regardless of their behaviors.Validation, empowerment and dignity are what I strive to create, cultivate and reap in every therapeutic alliance into which I enter.

I believe therapy should be a space where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. Using a client-centered and solution-focused approach, I help individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Together, we'll build practical tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and clarity.

My therapeutic style is to ask a lot of questions and really try to find the answers to what is bothering you. In our sessions, you will cry, laugh, talk excessively or talk a little. Our sessions will be all about you and what you need in the moment. I want our sessions to be a safe place for you to be comfortable. Bring your treats and your tissues. Bring your patience and your strength. We will be together and I will support you when you are feeling weak. Usually, I see what makes you special first. You will need to tell me what is wrong.

Hello there, my number one priority is to see clients within 1 to 5 business days to begin the process of assisting them with a hot topic known as "Life-ing." Today, I consider myself blessed because I find it rewarding in seeing clients reach their maximum potential. In addition to my mental health background for over 28 years, I have my own life experiences, coupled with being married to a minister, motherhood, and personal trauma, which have proven to be beneficial in my scope of practice.

I have done extensive work with grief/loss, anxiety, relational, premarital, substance use, and Christian Counseling.

My counseling career started at my church after obtaining a Master's Degree in Arts, focusing on Christian Counseling-Licensed Clinical Pastoral Counseling, followed by a Ph.D. in Divinity. I furthered my education with a Master's Degree in Science, specializing in Counseling and Psychology-Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Currently, I am an independent psychotherapist at Channeled Paths where I take pleasure in assisting clients from diverse backgrounds to feel valued, heard, and joyful.

I’m Jonicqua Bobb, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience helping individuals and families navigate life’s challenges. I provide compassionate, evidence-based support to those coping with trauma, stress, depression, anxiety, or substance-related issues.

I have a special passion for working with women, mothers, minority males, and blended families, as well as anyone seeking clarity, healing, or personal growth. My focus is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can process life events, build resilience, and move toward balance and fulfillment.

Originally from the West Coast and now based in Atlanta, Georgia, I enjoy mentoring, reading, staying active, and spending time with my family. I believe therapy is a journey we take together — one built on trust, compassion, and hope.
