Dr. Sha'Rhonda Dunbar

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 10 mi away • Suwanee, GA


Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step, and I strive to make that step feel as comfortable as possible. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment, pressure, or the need to have everything figured out.

I work with individuals ages 12 and older who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Whether you're facing a recent challenge or carrying experiences that have weighed on you for years, we'll work together to better understand what's happening beneath the surface and move toward meaningful, lasting change.

I see therapy as a partnership. You'll be met with compassion, curiosity, and respect as we work toward your goals at a pace that feels right for you.

When trying to do it all yourself is no longer working....stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions can feel heavy and burdensome. Would you like to put that down? You need understanding, insight and someone to dig in with what is going on within all the layers that make you...YOU. We all need help sometimes to work through expected and unexpected life events. You may be surprised at how you are responding or that you are researching treatment options period.

Greeting!

I am a seasoned professional continuing to study and learn the most impactful ways to lessen human suffering and promote self love in all. Beginning my practice decades ago as a combat trauma therapist, I have found myself dealing with the traumas of early life and relationships with most my adolescent and adult clients. I believe counseling can offer many “tools”, to cope, however, I prefer to help people heal so that coping becomes an infrequent need.
