LGBT therapists in Mcdonough, GA

I am Jesmond Fair, born and raised in rural Alabama and later became an alumnus of The University of Alabama. I completed all my graduate training at UGA and am calling Atlanta home. I am a gay Black Christian cis-gender male. For most moments of the day, I have a random song on repeat in my head. This can be attributed to my background in vocal and instrumental music. I believe in being real. So, clients can expect facial reactions, slang, occasional profanity, laughter, and even tears.

I'm a therapist, punk, and human. I help late diagnosed (or suspecting!) ADHD women and AFAB folks work through the shame tapes (like "I'm lazy" or "I'm not good enough" or "everyone can do this except me") to get to empowerment. I am also trained in EMDR and group therapy facilitation for trauma processing and resilience building. Let's rise together!

If you've had trauma and it seems to hold you back, on top of poor copings skills and you feel a bit lost; you found me. I've listened to my clients and now together we can get to the heart of issues.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping people feel understood and supported as they work through life’s challenges. I take a compassionate and collaborative approach, using techniques from acceptance based therapy, mindfulness, and solution-focused work to guide clients toward positive change. I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults, especially those navigating anxiety, self-esteem issues, or transitions in life. My goal is to help you feel safe, seen, and equipped to thrive both within yourself and in your relationships.

I’m Felicia Jenkins, and I’m passionate about helping people improve their lives through therapy. My goal is to provide a nurturing, supportive space where clients can overcome obstacles, build emotional balance, and work toward greater happiness.

I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology with a Counseling specialty from The Georgia School of Professional Psychology and have more than 25 years of experience providing therapy. I specialize in treating mood disorders, anxiety, relationship and marital concerns, stress, and trauma-related issues.

Through a compassionate and collaborative approach, I support clients in understanding their experiences, developing effective coping strategies, and creating meaningful, lasting change.

Self-love is the idea that one must love oneself to achieve happiness and love from others. It always made me feel some type of way. To survive, we are forced to constantly grind; to hustle. If that wasn't enough, we face daily oppression, including racism, sexism, ableism, transphobia, homophobia, colorism, texturism, and more! Self-love seems more and more like a folk tale similar to the American Dream: a goal that was not created for people of the global majority.

You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear. Whether you’re a mother wondering why you feel detached from the life you worked so hard to build, or a parent exhausted by the cycle of ADHD-related challenges—you don’t have to carry this alone.

I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.

I specialize in:

• Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Navigating the "new reality" of motherhood.
• High-Achieving Professionals: Managing burnout, perfectionism, and "mental load."
• Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: Supporting parents and children navigating ADHD and behavioral hurdles.

Why Work With Me?

I offer a "cozy" office experience in Houston, TX, and convenient virtual care across 7 states ( DE, FL, GA, IA, KS, MT, and TX). My goal is to make mental health easy, accessible and relatable.

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.

I am most widely known for the safe healing spaces that I create for women of Color. Through my practice, I have facilitated an Annual Sister Circle Retreat, and ongoing weekly Sister Circle therapeutic support groups for over a decade. In doing so, I have worked to empower a multitude of women in creating the lives that they want.

My mother taught me and my brothers from a very young age not to ever hate anyone. Her words have been invaluable to me. My father instilled in us boys a mantra that too has served me well. He said to us innumerable times "Listen." Neither of my parents were strict disciplinarians, and they never used corporal punishment. But, from boyhood, through adolescence and into young adulthood, my brothers and I could count on a well-deserved lecture and extra chores if either of my parents ever caught us breaking one of these rules. My parents' philosophy helped steer me into my life's work, and I employ their beliefs daily in my career as a therapist. I believe people seek counseling so they can be accepted, validated and heard. I committed to myself long ago to never hate and to always listen to my patients/clients/consumers, regardless of their behaviors.Validation, empowerment and dignity are what I strive to create, cultivate and reap in every therapeutic alliance into which I enter.

Having over a decade of experience working in multiple settings with varied populations, pales in comparison to my innate drive to support others along their individualized journeys of growth, healing, recovery, increased awareness and/or self understanding.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC016639) in the state of Georgia and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (MH22156) in the state of Florida. I've worked in a variety of settings, such as psychiatric hospitals, crisis stabilization units, community agencies and college campuses. My clients have a wide range in age, gender, sexual orientation, faith, education level, ethnicity, and cultural background. In my practice, I like to focus on life transitions, whether it's leaving a job, becoming a parent, or starting college.

I'm Claire. I welcome the exploration of spirituality, faith, personal beliefs, purpose, and the search for meaning as part of the therapeutic process. For many people, healing involves more than reducing symptoms; it can also involve reconnecting with a sense of purpose, discovering what feels meaningful, exploring existential questions, and developing a deeper connection with yourself and the world around you. Spirituality is incorporated in a way that honors your individual beliefs, values, and worldview.

I have a special interest in supporting service members, veterans, and their families as they navigate the unique challenges of military life, deployment, transition, trauma, PTSD symptoms, identity changes, relationship difficulties, and the process of reconnecting with themselves and the people they love.

Therapy can be a space to explore deeper questions: Why do I keep repeating the same patterns? Who am I outside of my roles and responsibilities? What do I want my life to mean? What are my strengths, and how can I use them to build a more fulfilling life? How can I move beyond simply surviving? I would love to explore of these with you.

I am a Jacksonville native and received my undergraduate degree from the University of North Florida and my graduate degree from Florida State University.

Hello there, my name is Christian Waller, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I think that when we're able to understand how our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are mirrors of our meanings and experiences, we're able to explore a bit deeper for what drives us and what we want to do with that information.
