Choosing the right therapist is a significant step toward the life you want to lead, and I’m so glad you’re here.
With over 20 years of experience in the social work field my approach is rooted in a simple but powerful belief: I want to see you win. I don't just view therapy as a clinical process; I see it as a partnership designed to bridge the gap between where you are now and the fullness of your potential.
Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, or struggling with substance use? You may feel stuck, emotionally drained, or unsure how to move forward. I work with individuals across Georgia who are navigating depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, and substance use challenges. Together, we create a safe, supportive space where you can better understand what you're experiencing, build coping skills, and begin moving toward a more stable, balanced, and fulfilling life.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia with experience providing therapy and behavioral health assessments for children, adolescents, and adults. I work with individuals and families navigating trauma, family conflict, DFCS involvement, and other high-stress situations. I specialize in helping clients who feel overwhelmed or stuck build emotional regulation, improve communication, and develop practical coping strategies. My approach is grounded, direct, and focused on real-life change using evidence-based methods.
Hi! I'm Elizabeth, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe that healing happens in spaces where you feel truly seen and understood. With my background in both mental health and theology, I create a therapeutic environment that honors your full identity—cultural, spiritual, and personal. Whether you're navigating trauma, life transitions, leaving IOP settings, or identity questions, I'm here to walk alongside you with warmth, cultural sensitivity, and clinical expertise. My journey in mental health has taken me through residential facilities, faith communities, and community programs, where I've had the privilege of supporting individuals across all life stages.
If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.
You’ve been carrying a lot on your own for a long time. On the outside you seem like you’re holding it together, but inside you might feel anxious, low, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past experiences and current stress. I’m Amanda, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and EMDR-trained therapist, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, major life transitions, and relationship challenges. You don’t need the “right” words or a polished story here—my goal is to offer a warm, grounded space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard so we can make sense of what’s happening and help you feel more steady and hopeful.
I am a licensed professional counselor with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I work with all ages, but my focus is working with adults. I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years. I also have experience and a passion for autism and wrote the book African American Fathers Raising An Autistic Child.
I am experienced and trained in assisting individuals of all ages in dealing with the most unfortunate life transitions. I offer morning, afternoon, and some evening appointments.
I also offer life coaching while focusing on personal empowerment, motivation, and strategies to define and reach your dreams!
Are you ready to take your life back? Let's do this together!

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Augusta
Searching for therapists in Augusta starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. Others may want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. As you compare Augusta therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy style, and experience that match what you want to focus on.
Augusta offers a range of therapy and counseling options, including in-person appointments near local neighborhoods and virtual sessions across Georgia. If local office availability is limited or your schedule varies, virtual therapy can make it easier to find a therapist who fits your calendar. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you understand how they communicate, what they specialize in, and what sessions may look like.
Therapy in Augusta can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists in Augusta, enter your insurance details, review therapist bios, and book directly when you find a fit.
