Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 27 mi away • Marietta, GA


Hi, I’m Priscilla Powers, a Licensed Professional Counselor, School Counselor, and Professor of Counseling with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education.

With extensive experience in adolescent and family dynamics, I specialize in helping clients navigate:

  • Clients often come to me for support with:
    • Anxiety, depression, and overwhelming emotions
    • Self-esteem, perfectionism, and fear of not being “good enough”
    • College and academic challenges
    • Career uncertainty and post-graduation transitions
    • Identity development and life direction
    • Dating, breakups, and relationship patterns
    • Attachment and communication
    • Family relationships and developing healthy independence
    • Boundaries and difficult conversations
    • ADHD-related organization and time management
    • Grief and significant life transitions
    • Major decisions about relationships, careers, and the future

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I integrate cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), family systems work, and trauma-informed care—tailored to each client’s unique needs. My goal is to create a supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to make meaningful changes in your life.

If you’re seeking a counselor who combines therapeutic expertise, deep compassion, and decades of experience, I’m here to help.

Syreeta Smith

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 27 mi away • Douglasville, GA


Hi, I'm Syreeta! My passion for helping others began as a volunteer at my children's elementary school, where I realized that helping children also means supporting their families. That experience inspired me to earn a bachelor's degree in Human Services with a concentration in Mental Health and a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Since then, I've had the privilege of working with children, adolescents, adults, and families in both hospital and private practice settings. I believe healing is possible with the right guidance, compassion, and support, and I strive to create a safe, welcoming space where clients feel heard, empowered, and equipped to navigate life's challenges with confidence.

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 Jonesboro

Searching for therapists in Jonesboro starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for someone whose listed specialties and training match your needs. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their approach, whether they use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care, and what you can expect in sessions.

In a smaller city like Jonesboro, local therapist availability may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a Georgia-licensed therapist. In-person care may be a good fit if you prefer a dedicated office setting, while virtual appointments may work better if your schedule, commute, or location makes travel harder. Before booking, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, has appointment times that fit your calendar, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios closely can help you understand communication style and decide who may be a strong fit.

Therapy in Jonesboro can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, accept your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, view estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, compare therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
