Hi! My name is Jillian Canada, and I have lived in the state of Georgia my whole life. I found a passion for care and attended the University of Georgia where I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology followed by the University of North Georgia where I received my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have experience working in private settings as well as community health centers with ages 4 years old and onward. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and attachment. I love walking with others as they grow into who they want to be.
Many men carry struggles they’ve never felt safe enough to talk about. I work with men, adolescent males, veterans, and military members who are dealing with trauma, substance use, domestic violence, compulsive sexual behaviors, relationship conflict, and the pressure of trying to hold everything together. You might feel stuck in patterns that are damaging your relationships, affecting your sense of identity, or leaving you feeling ashamed, angry, emotionally disconnected, or out of control. My work also involves betrayal trauma, conduct disorders and men overwhelmed with power, privilege and identity issues.
Anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, and unhealthy coping patterns can make it difficult to move forward alone. My goal is to provide a space where you can be honest, understood, and supported without judgment.
I’m a trauma‐focused therapist who helps clients heal in a safe, gentle, and effective way. My approach goes beyond talk therapy to include experiential methods that support deep nervous‐system healing while you remain fully in control. I draw from psychodynamic, somatic, and humanistic traditions to help you reconnect with yourself and move forward with confidence
Sometimes the hardest part isn't what happened to you—it's carrying the weight of it every day while trying to be there for everyone else. Anxiety, family conflict, grief, trauma, or difficult life transitions can leave you feeling emotionally drained, disconnected, and unsure how to move forward. You deserve a space where you don't have to carry those burdens alone. I work alongside individuals, couples, and families experiencing anxiety, family issues, grief and loss, women's issues, and trauma so they can strengthen their relationships, build emotional resilience, and create healthier, more connected lives. Working with adolescents, adults, and families, I strive to create a compassionate, supportive environment where healing feels possible and lasting change can begin.
I am an LCSW with a mission to untangle trauma and transform lives.
I've observed that many are unaware their struggles stem from unresolved childhood trauma. I focus on addressing core beliefs formed during these transformative years.
As I too struggled with unhealthy patterns of my past. Hitting rock bottom was my turning point. I immersed myself in retreats and inner child work, finding strength in spirituality. Healing myself and paying it forward to help others heal too.
Hi, I'm Dr. Daniel! I'm a jack of all trades & master of none. I'm a U.S. Marine Corps veteran. Before my clinical training, I completed a BSc in Organizational Management, a Master of Divinity in Chaplaincy, and a Doctor of Ministry. I'm an Ordained member of the clergy. Later, I completed a Master in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have completed all of the core courses for a PhD in Counseling and Psychological Studies, only the dissertation remains. I'm nationally board certified.
I am a therapist who prides herself on meeting clients where they are. Seeking help can be a vulnerable and scary experience, but can also be life changing and beneficial in so many ways. If you are struggling to form meaningful connections, navigating anxiety, grappling with your self worth, or facing a life transition, then you have found the therapist for you.
I have a wealth of over 15 years' experience providing individual, family, couple therapy to those who have depression, anxiety, endured trauma, relationship concerns, or life stressors with work, personal, or family. My clients age from 15 years old to 62. They are diverse in reference to gender, culture, race, spiritualty, and relational beliefs.
I'm glad you're here. My name is Saúl.
I’m a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, patient-centered psychiatric care. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported without judgment.
With a background in both psychiatric and family medicine, I take a whole-person approach—considering both your mental and physical health when developing your treatment plan. My goal is to help you feel like yourself again.
