Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Mcdonough, GA

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.

I work with teens and adults of all ages navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and mood disorders. I also have experience supporting individuals with intellectual challenges, severe and persistent mental illness, and people facing significant life transitions. My goal is to create a safe, grounded space where each person feels seen, supported, and empowered.

I am also well‐versed in Christian Counseling and can integrate faith‐based perspectives into therapy when desired. Whether you prefer a spiritually informed framework or a more traditional clinical approach, I honor your values and support you in a way that feels aligned with your identity and beliefs.

My educational background is in both Clinical and Community Psychology. I conceptualize and intervene with clients with an understanding of individual and environmental contributing factors. Additionally, I have significant experiences working with people across the life span and in various settings. I bring this rich experience to my work with clients.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in New York state. I completed her master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling at Molloy College. I have over 13 years of experience working in the field of human services and mental health. I have worked closely with adults with developmental and intellectual disabilities. I am known for my resilient spirit and ability to provide unconditional positive regard.

Life can often feel like a series of overwhelming transitions, leaving you feeling disconnected or unsure of your next step. I provide a dedicated space for adults (22+) to slow down, reflect, and move forward with renewed clarity.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of trauma, managing a mood disorder, or facing significant life changes, my goal is to help you transform "feeling stuck" into a journey of intentional growth.

How We Will Work Together

My approach is relational, honest, and depth-oriented. Rather than just addressing surface-level symptoms, we will explore the unspoken beliefs and past experiences that quietly shape your daily life. By learning to listen to what your emotions are communicating, you can begin to respond to life’s challenges in ways that promote genuine healing and authentic connection.

Specialized Support for Couples

In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in marriage and pre-marital counseling. I help couples at all stages build resilient foundations, repair emotional disconnections, and foster a deeper sense of intimacy and mutual understanding.

**Please note: While I accept insurance for individual therapy, all couples counseling is private-pay only. Insurance does not cover relationship-focused therapy.

Your Journey Starts Here

You deserve a space where you are fully seen, heard, and empowered. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
