Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Rome, GA

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.

Glad you stopped by! I am board-certified psychiatrist specializing in the care of adults, children, and adolescents, with over 17 years of clinical experience. An excellent listener, I provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions.

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.

As a Registered Play Therapist and AutPlay-certified clinician, I specialize in helping children and teens who are struggling with big feelings, challenging behaviors, and social or school-related stress. Since 2005, I’ve worked closely with kids, adolescents, and their families to create a safe, welcoming space where they can express themselves through play, creativity, and conversation. I partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports as needed, so your child is not working through these challenges alone. My goal is to help them understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.

I’m LaToya T. Newman, MS, LMFT, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with master’s degrees in both Marriage and Family Therapy and Criminal Justice Sciences. My background allows me to look beyond symptoms alone and consider the relational, environmental, and systemic experiences that shape how we see ourselves, connect with others, and respond to life’s challenges.

I work with adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, and emotional overwhelm. I particularly enjoy supporting individuals and couples who are ready to better understand themselves, explore relational patterns, strengthen communication, and heal from experiences that continue to impact how they show up in relationships and daily life.

My work is attachment-based, trauma-informed, and relational. I pay attention not only to what is happening on the surface, but also to the deeper emotional experiences, family dynamics, and life experiences influencing your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. I am especially mindful of cultural experiences, family systems, and the impact of past environments on emotional safety and connection.

Clients often describe me as warm, direct, insightful, and easy to talk to. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and supported without judgment while also gently challenging patterns that may no longer be serving you. I believe healing and growth happen when we better understand ourselves, feel emotionally safe, and begin addressing things at the root.

Hi, I'm Maureen (she/her), and I’m a licensed professional counselor with more than two decades of experience supporting clients with toxic parent recovery, narcissistic abuse recovery, depression, anxiety, ADHD, and life transitions. I often see folks who appear successful on the outside but are struggling inside. I advocate for people who are starting something new and scary or leaving behind something painful. Whatever it is you are looking to unload, I offer a warm and validating space to explore what you’ve been carrying.

I hold a master’s degree in counseling and have worked in hospital systems, outpatient clinics, and university counseling centers. I work with adults and college students to better understand patterns and survival instincts. When I'm not working, I'm usually exercising in some way, spending time outside, or playing music.

Hi, I’m Priscilla Powers, a Licensed Professional Counselor, School Counselor, and Professor of Counseling with a Ph.D. in Counselor Education. I’ve spent my career supporting teenagers and young adults through some of life’s most challenging transitions—both in clinical settings and in schools—while also training the next generation of counselors.

With extensive experience in adolescent and family dynamics, I specialize in helping clients navigate:

• Relationship stress and conflict
• Anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional burnout
• Life transitions and identity shiftsSchool-related stress, academic pressures, and developmental concerns

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.
