ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Atlanta, GA

Hello! I'm so excited that you are here. Welcome to the start of something new! My name is Samaria Witherspoon, but I’m commonly known as Sam. I am an author, professor as well as the founder of Hidden to Healing, LLC providing individual, couples and family counseling to those that are struggling with trauma, anxiety, overall life satisfaction, depression, aggression, grief, substance abuse, and behavioral and emotional issues.

Hello! I am so glad you're here.

I invite you to dance with these words as I share a bit more about myself! I am a licensed professional counselor, board-certified dance movement therapist, certified movement specialist & educator, certified professional clinical supervisor, and a certified Chi for Two® Embodiment Coach.

​

I completed my MA in Dance/Movement Therapy & Counseling from Columbia College Chicago, after teaching dance, working with at-risk youth and performing professionally in England and the Republic of Ireland for several years. I have a passion for music, poetry and gardening, cooking, languages and travel. I am in awe of how richly culture enlivens our energetic dances.

I maintain a private psychotherapy practice, provide clinical supervision, and serve as an educator and public speaker. I am an active member of the American Dance Therapy Association Southern Chapter, and the Atlanta dance community.

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. Reaching out for therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you or your child are carrying big emotions, past experiences, or relationship stress. Many of the clients I work with feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, respected, and supported as you begin this process.

Welcome to a place where young hearts and minds find solace, growth, and resilience. As a dedicated psychologist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy, I am here to help children, adolescents, and young adults navigate life's challenges, build positive thought patterns, and unleash their full potential. Together, we will embark on a transformative journey towards emotional well-being and a brighter future.

I am Mira Iheme, Ph.D., a doctoral-level clinician with over 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals from diverse cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Throughout my career, I have been deeply committed to helping clients navigate life’s challenges, build resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

My therapeutic approach is solution-focused, collaborative, and strengths-based, grounded in the belief that every individual has the capacity for growth and healing. I am known for my energetic, highly positive, and optimistic style, which helps foster a supportive and empowering therapeutic environment. I work actively with clients to identify goals, develop practical strategies, and move toward improved emotional well-being and life satisfaction.

I thrive in helping clients make positive life transitions, overcome obstacles, and reconnect with their sense of purpose and inner strength. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them as they progress on their personal wellness journey. It is my privilege to support clients as they work toward greater balance, clarity, and fulfillment in their lives.

I'm a therapist, punk, and human. I help late diagnosed (or suspecting!) ADHD women and AFAB folks work through the shame tapes (like "I'm lazy" or "I'm not good enough" or "everyone can do this except me") to get to empowerment. I am also trained in EMDR and group therapy facilitation for trauma processing and resilience building. Let's rise together!

Hi, I'm Maureen (she/her), and I’m a licensed professional counselor with more than two decades of experience supporting clients with toxic parent recovery, narcissistic abuse recovery, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and life transitions. I often see folks who appear successful on the outside but are struggling inside. I advocate for people who are starting something new and scary or leaving behind something painful. Whatever it is you are looking to unload, I offer a warm and validating space to explore what you’ve been carrying.

I hold a master’s degree in counseling and have worked in hospital systems, outpatient clinics, and university counseling centers. I work with adults and college students to better understand patterns and survival instincts. When I'm not working, I'm usually exercising in some way, spending time outside, or playing music.

What led me to become a therapist...

When I was a child, my mother taught me a poem called “Children Learn What They Live.” It had a big influence on me – so much so that I knew at age 15 that I wanted to work with kids.

When I was a junior in college, the unimaginable happened, as I lost my teenaged brother. That tragedy affected me profoundly, igniting a passion for turning life’s lemons into lemonade.

I had a mission: to help people who are suffering but don’t know how to change it.
