Grief counselors and therapists in Savannah, GA

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.

I am a dual certified Family and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in tandum with medication management. I strive to help individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or struggling to find balance in their daily lives. Many of my clients experience anxiety, depression, mood instability, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, or life transitions that feel difficult to manage alone. You may be seeking clarity, emotional stability, improved focus, or relief from symptoms that are impacting your relationships, work, or sense of self. I understand fully and will be there with you every step of the way!

Life can feel incredibly heavy when anxiety, grief, trauma, depression, or major life changes begin affecting your ability to move forward. You may feel overwhelmed by emotions, exhausted from carrying burdens on your own, or unsure where to turn next. Sometimes the hardest part is feeling like no one truly understands what you've been through. I work with adults and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, panic disorders, grief and loss, PTSD, trauma, stress, bipolar disorder, and anger management concerns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally drained, discouraged, or disconnected from the peace and fulfillment they want for themselves. My goal is to provide a compassionate and supportive space where you can slow down, feel heard, make sense of your experiences, and begin moving toward healing with greater confidence and hope.

Many high-performing adults are used to being the one others depend on. From the outside, life may look successful and put together, but internally you may feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally exhausted, or constantly questioning yourself despite your accomplishments.

I specialize in working with professionals, leaders, and high-achieving adults who are balancing demanding careers, relationships, parenting, and personal expectations while struggling with anxiety, burnout, imposter syndrome, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, or stress that never fully seems to shut off. Many of my clients are successful professionally but find themselves struggling to feel fully present at home, connected in relationships, or able to truly slow their mind down.

I also work with adults navigating depression, major life transitions, work stress, relationship challenges, and the pressure of trying to manage everything while continuing to perform at a high level. Often, the same strengths that help people succeed professionally can also contribute to chronic stress, emotional exhaustion, people-pleasing, overthinking, difficulty relaxing, or feeling like they always need to stay in control.

Therapy with me is not about judgment or simply “talking about feelings.” It is a practical, supportive, and collaborative process focused on helping you better understand yourself, improve emotional awareness, manage stress more effectively, strengthen relationships, and feel more grounded and confident in both your personal and professional life.

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, or struggling with substance use? You may feel stuck, emotionally drained, or unsure how to move forward. I work with individuals across Georgia who are navigating depression, anxiety, trauma/PTSD, and substance use challenges. Together, we create a safe, supportive space where you can better understand what you're experiencing, build coping skills, and begin moving toward a more stable, balanced, and fulfilling life.
