Hi, I'm Lakyah! I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a deep belief that healing happens through connection—both with ourselves and with others. I graduated from the Mercer School of Medicine with my Master of Family Therapy. I work with adolescents, teens, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, attachment injuries, and stress. I work with clients from all backgrounds and have a strong interest in supporting diverse and minority populations.
My name is Taylor Whelchel and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I graduated from the University of Georgia with my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Sociology; and the University of North Carolina-Greensboro with my Masters in Clinical Mental Health. I have worked in the industry for the last six years and specialized in anxiety, trauma, depression, and grief.
Sometimes the hardest part of therapy is showing up before you even know what you want out of it. If you're feeling stuck, frustrated, or like something needs to change but you can't quite name what, that's exactly where we start. I work with teens, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger, and the kind of life experiences that feel too big to sort out alone. You don't need to come in with clear goals. We'll figure that out together.
Have you been feeling overwhelmed by your ever-growing to-do list? Between work, dishes, laundry, cooking, and cleaning, you're feeling overwhelmed and shut down, and that's not including kids or school demands. Time management is a constant battle; you procrastinate, lose track of time, and miss important deadlines. It feels impossible to stay on top of everything. Your brain feels scattered and you feel like you’re underachieving, despite your potential and the effort you're putting in.
Hi! My name is Kelly and I am an LPC with certification in addictions. I specialize in gender identity and sexuality issues and sexual and relational diversity (such as polyamory, BDSM, and kink). I have a particular passion for working with those in relationships and working towards having healthy attachments. My practice focuses in the areas of trauma and healing, emotional dysregulation, identity, self worth and self acceptance, healthy boundaries, communication, and self care.
Hello my name is Tam and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and move toward healing, stability, and personal growth. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment.
My clinical approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, explore patterns that may be holding them back, and develop practical tools for coping and change. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel comfortable being open and authentic.
I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and complex social stressors. My background in social work allows me to view each person holistically, considering emotional, psychological, social, and environmental factors that impact well-being.
Above all, I believe in meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them at their own pace. My goal is to empower clients to build insight, resilience, and confidence as they work toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.
At an early age I spent hours listening to people talk about the transitions, traumas, and troubles in their life as I played just out of ear’s reach (or so they thought). These special moments ignited a passion for people and what happens when human beings start being human.
