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.

Life experiences can affect our mood, mental well-being, physical health and emotional stability. They can shake our confidence and self-esteem. There is hope!

I love to assist clients to reach their goals big or small. All progress is important during therapy. My empathetic and non-judgemental attributes help clients feel comfortable and safe.

Hello! I have been working with kids, teens and adults for over 10 years. I can help with issues around anxiety, ADHD, OCD, relationship issues and grief/loss. I operate from a ACT model incorporating mindfulness and ERP for OCD and anxiety.

Deciding to seek therapy is a significant step towards personal growth and well-being. By considering this option, you're already demonstrating a commitment to improving your life. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor, and trained EMDR therapist, I'm here to support you on your journey to healing and self-improvement.

Thank you for reading my profile and considering my services. It would be an honor to help you with the issues causing you distress and unhappiness. Counseling is not just a job for me, it's a calling. After an extraordinary career in Human Resources, both domestically and internationally, I've found my true passion in counseling. I'm committed to providing you with the support and guidance you need. I've been a counselor for many years and enjoy a very interactive relationship with my clients.

Relationships can sometimes feel like you are speaking two different languages. You both love each other but argue about the smallest things. Feeling like you have to raise your voice just to be heard? Then feeling hurt because you are still misunderstood?

This is common for many couples. I can help give you the tools you need to really talk to each other again. To redirect that passion in a healthy direction and teach you how to truly rediscover each other!

As a relational, healing-centered psychotherapist, I work to help my clients discover their own guiding voice, to listen with intent, and to cultivate love and acceptance of their truest nature. In my work with adults, issues like sexuality, spirituality, existentialism, unconscious belief systems, family and partnership, and many more of life's great challenges guide the work of self-exploration.

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.

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.

I work with adults navigating a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions. I believe therapy can provide both the space to better understand yourself and the support to make changes that improve how you feel and function in everyday life.

My style is warm, collaborative, and supportive while still being practical and goal-oriented. I’ll take time to understand your experiences, strengths, and what you hope to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll explore what may be getting in the way, build on what’s already working, and develop strategies that feel realistic for your life.
