To ensure absolute confidence in our partnership, you should know that I operate less like a traditional therapist and more like a psychological strategist. Built specifically for high-achievers accustomed to heavy loads, my approach does not rely on passive listening. Instead, I am highly active, engaged, and direct. I match your cognitive speed, treating your emotional well-being with the same urgency and strategic precision you apply to your most critical professional ventures.
Within our sessions, the usual hierarchies are stripped away to provide a rare ecosystem of utmost discretion and radical candor. Because I am entirely focused on the human being operating the machine, I will gently but firmly challenge your blind spots and call out self-sabotaging logic. You will never hear me hide behind clinical jargon; instead, I translate complex behavioral science into plain, actionable frameworks designed for a logical, analytical mind.
Ultimately, I view myself as a specialized asset in your corner, operating on the principle that insight without execution is just an expensive conversation. Our work prioritizes data and action, ensuring every concept is pressure-tested in the real world—whether in your boardroom, your marriage, or your internal life. My sole objective is to help you optimize your inner world so your outer success is sustainable, fulfilling, and integrated with the people you love.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Doctorate in Psychology from UWG, and a Master’s/Specialist in Counseling from GSU. I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years, and 11 years as an LPC. I am dedicated to providing high-quality therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I help people overcome various life challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship, and work-related issues. I have experience in addressing intense crises as well as daily stressors.
I have a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision from Mercer University. I received my master's in clinical mental health from Mercer as well. I have been in practice for almost 10 years in one capacity or another. I have my LPC in the state of Georgia.
I believe genuine healing springs from feeling fully understood and accepted. In our work together, you'll find a therapist who listens deeply, asks curious questions, and partners with you to uncover pathways toward growth and relief. We co-design your journey based on your goals, values, and strengths.
I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where healing begins with feeling truly seen and heard.

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.

I work with adults navigating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions. I believe therapy can provide both the space to better understand yourself and the support to make changes that improve how you feel and function in everyday life.
My style is warm, collaborative, and supportive while still being practical and goal-oriented. I’ll take time to understand your experiences, strengths, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll explore what may be getting in the way, build on what’s already working, and develop strategies that feel realistic for your life.
I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected. Many clients come to me during chapters of life that feel confusing or chaotic. Together, we slow things down. We work to understand what's driving the pain, identify what you truly need, and develop practical skills to move forward with confidence and clarity.
My clinical background includes addiction counseling, family dynamics, grief work, trauma-informed care, and supporting clients who have experienced unstable relationships, emotional dysregulation, or long-standing stress. I provide a non-judgemental environment where honesty is welcomed, growth is supported, and you don't have to pretend to be ok.
Therapy with me is active- we talk, plan, reflect, and practice new ways of thinking and coping. You will always leave the session with insight, direction, and support you can apply to everyday life. If you are ready to start healing, reconnect with yourself, and build healthier relationships, I'm here to walk with you. Reach out to schedule a consultation.
Great to meet you!
Hello, I’m Channa Rochester, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals improve their mental and emotional well-being. With over a decade of experience in healthcare and mental health settings, I work with clients who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood changes, or life stressors. My goal is to create a safe, supportive environment where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to take meaningful steps toward better mental health.
Before becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked for many years as a psychiatric mental health nurse, where I gained extensive experience supporting individuals in inpatient, outpatient, crisis, and community mental health settings. These experiences helped shape my compassionate and patient-centered approach to care and strengthened my commitment to helping individuals improve their mental wellness
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Counseling and Psychology and years of experience supporting individuals through some of life's heaviest seasons; depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, family conflict, and the quiet pain of not feeling good enough.
My path to this work is deeply personal. For years I wrestled with low self-esteem, and that journey, from bitter and broken to whole and beautiful, is what drives everything I do. I founded U.G.L.Y. LADY Ministries out of that experience, a ministry dedicated to helping women reclaim their sense of worth. I also serve as a school counselor, which keeps me grounded in the real, everyday challenges people face from adolescence into adulthood.
I have a particular heart for women, young people, and anyone navigating trauma, relationship pain, or the weight of feeling unseen. My faith, my community, and my lived experience are not separate from my clinical work; they inform it. I bring warmth, encouragement, and an unshakeable belief in every person's capacity to heal.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Atlanta
Searching for OCD therapists in Atlanta starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just someone who lists OCD as a focus area. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people living with OCD, and therapists may need specific training to provide it. As you compare options, look for experience with concerns like intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, compulsions, and anxiety. A therapist’s bio can help you confirm whether they mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or direct experience supporting people living with OCD.
Atlanta has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, Decatur, and Virginia-Highland, which can make the search more detailed rather than simple. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking needs, or transit route, or whether virtual sessions give you more flexibility. It also helps to compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For OCD care, review each profile closely to see whether the therapist has specific ERP training, since that can be different from general familiarity with OCD.
Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book, then compare bios, availability, and appointment formats in one place. From there, you can browse OCD therapists in Atlanta and book directly when you’re ready.
