K. Erica Hunkin, PhD, MSN, FNP-C, PMHNP-BC, is a dual board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in Biological Sciences and a Master of Science in Marine Chemical Ecology from The University of Mississippi. Her passion for understanding the biological basis of behavior led her to pursue a PhD in Behavioral Neuroendocrinology at North Carolina State University. During her doctoral research, she focused on how hormones influence brain function and behavior, a natural extension of her lifelong curiosity about human behavior. She later transitioned into nursing, earning a Master of Science in Nursing from the University of Hawaii at Manoa, and a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certificate from Johns Hopkins University. Erica has provided evidence-based, holistic care for children, adolescents, and adults in multiple settings, including community-based clinics, telehealth, and work with active-duty military personnel, reservists, and veterans.

You're here! Right here, right now! You may not be where you want to be yet, but you have already taken a step towards facing challenges with a strength you never knew you had.

I am a licensed professional counselor and a certified rehabilitation counselor with additional experience in helping individuals get back to work to attain the highest success possible after experiencing any life changing issues. I have helped people with almost everything you can think of. I have helped those with mild and severe mental health concerns.
When I counsel, my style is energetic, compassionate, and supportive. I praise your progressions, and I can show you how to be proud of your efforts and steps in the right direction. I am client-centered and I want to listen to you and be as helpful as is humanly possible. I love to empower my clients. I can't wait to meet you!
I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.
I'm a licensed counselor and scholar-practitioner with more than 29 years of experience providing behavioral health care across a wide range of settings. In 2009 I founded BSmith Consulting Group, LLC, where I work with individuals navigating adjustment issues, mental health disorders, and co-occurring (dual diagnosis) concerns. Alongside my clinical work, I provide employee assistance support to individuals, professionals, and organizations, and I contribute to the field through clinical supervision, training of fellow mental health professionals, and presenting at local, state, and national platforms. My goal is always to meet you where you are and support your long-term wellness.
Life can be full of surprises. Sometimes those surprises are wonderful, other times they can cause stress, anxiety and even depression. My goal is to walk with you through those transitions and help you develop the skills and tools to manage your feelings; to feel like you are in control of your emotions, rather than the other way around around. I am a licensed clinical social worker. I received my MSW from the University of Georgia. I specialize in anxiety, depression, life transitions, grief and trauma.
Hello, and welcome. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, understanding, and evidence-based care. My professional experience includes working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, grief and loss, trauma, and self-esteem challenges. I recognize that every person's story is unique, and I tailor treatment to meet each client's specific needs, strengths, and goals.
I earned my education from the University of Georgia, where I developed a strong foundation in social work practice, mental health treatment, and advocacy. My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Savannah, GA
Searching for therapists in Savannah starts with knowing what kind of care may fit your needs. Some people look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or major life transitions. Others may want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience that match what you want to address.
In a smaller city like Savannah, the right local therapist may be nearby in areas such as the Historic District, Midtown, or around Forsyth Park, while virtual therapy can help expand your options across Georgia. Some people prefer an in-person office setting, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility. Beyond specialty, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist describes their style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Savannah can be a significant investment 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 search for therapists, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm what coverage is available in Savannah. You can browse therapists, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
