LGBT therapists in Gainesville, GA

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping people feel understood and supported as they work through life’s challenges. I take a compassionate and collaborative approach, using techniques from acceptance based therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused work to guide clients toward positive change. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults, especially those navigating anxiety, self-esteem issues, or transitions in life. My goal is to help you feel safe, seen, and equipped to thrive both within yourself and in your relationships.

By blending an open-minded perspective with solution-focused modalities, Tinika helps clients move through depression and anxiety toward a life of authenticity and resilience. Whether you are seeking to reclaim your narrative after trauma or exploring the nuances of your identity, Tinika offers a partnership built on safety, respect, and clinical excellence.

Hey! I’m Carey, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor here in Georgia. I am a University of Georgia graduate then continued my education at Thomas University. I enjoy working with mostly adolescents and young adults, although I accept adults as well, who may be feeling anxious, depressed, or simply going through a tough time. I view counseling as a partnership where both the client and counselor work together to achieve the goals that the client sets for themselves, and I am always excited and try my best to help those goals come to fruition.

I chose counseling after my own journey, and I always dream of being the counselor that I needed when I was younger and seeking help.

I’m Brandee, PMHNP-BC and founder of Kaleidoscope ClearPath Wellness. I believe mental health care should feel supportive, personal, and easy to understand. Healing happens when we slow down, listen to ourselves, and take small, caring steps forward. My approach blends mental health care with mindfulness, balance, and everyday habits that support your whole life. Here you'll find a gentle, judgment-free space for growth and clarity. My goal is simple; help you feel better and move forward with confidence.

If you're struggling with feeling like you fit in, knowing who you are, or carrying a heavy weight across your shoulders, welcome. I specialize in trauma and dissociation, neurodivergence, and LGBTQIA+ concerns. I've been practicing therapy for the past five years and have been in mental health for the last decade.

Hi, I’m Shanae Benito, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with support, compassion, and practical tools for change. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based practices including TF-MCBT (Trauma-Focused Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy) while creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and seen. I believe healing is not about having all the answer. It's about taking the next step forward together.
