Incredible change happens in your life when you decide to take control of what do have power over instead of craving control over what you don't. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia with 20+ years of experience working with individuals and families in a variety of settings addressing issues relating to parenting, parent/child relationships, divorce, grief/loss, marital conflicts, behavior, self-esteem, depression, anxiety, communication, trauma, adjustment/life changes, etc.
I would describe my approach to therapy as eclectic, utilizing a variety of modalities to best serve the needs of my client. The modalities that are proven to be most useful are: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Centered Therapy, Gestalt therapy, Solution-focused therapy, Rational emotive therapy, Dialectical Behavior therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing. It is my goal to help you to live your most fulfilling life by enabling you to be your true self. You will spend time exploring ways to grow and increase self-acceptance along with discussing the issues that you are dealing with. I will offer acceptance, empathy, and guidance as you work on personal growth and positive change.
Hello! I'm so excited that you are here. Welcome to the start of something new! My name is Samaria Witherspoon, but I’m commonly known as Sam. I am an author, professor as well as the founder of Hidden to Healing, LLC providing individual, couples and family counseling to those that are struggling with trauma, anxiety, overall life satisfaction, depression, aggression, grief, substance abuse, and behavioral and emotional issues.
Hello to all, my name is Carlton Mitchell and I am a licensed Professional Counselor. I have master's degrees in both business and counseling psychology. My hope is to help you achieve the goal(s) that you set for yourself in counseling. Seeking help is a sign of strength. I am here to help.
I specialize in evidence-based treatments for patients suffering from anxiety, OCD, Depression, and trauma related disorders. These treatments are more effective and efficient than traditional therapy because they directly target symptoms. I provide specific exercises aimed at breaking behavioral patterns that maintain symptoms. Traditional psychotherapy emphasizes gaining insight which in itself often does not lead to symptom reduction. Changing what you do will you change how you feel.
Hello, I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping individuals and families improve their mental wellness. I provide compassionate, personalized care for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood concerns, and life stress.
With a background in both healthcare and early childhood education, I understand the importance of supporting the whole person at every stage of life. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where clients feel heard and empowered.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Macon
Searching for therapists in Macon starts with knowing what kind of support you want. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties match your needs. Provider bios can also help you understand their approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or support for couples and families.
In a smaller city like Macon, the number of nearby therapists may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Georgia. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their session style fits what you’re looking for. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Macon can be expensive 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 accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Macon, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
