Hi, I’m Shanae Benito, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with support, compassion, and practical tools for change. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, stress, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based practices including TF-MCBT (Trauma-Focused Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy) while creating a space where you feel heard, understood, and seen. I believe healing is not about having all the answer. It's about taking the next step forward together.
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.
Choosing the right therapist is a significant step toward the life you want to lead, and I’m so glad you’re here.
With over 20 years of experience in the social work field my approach is rooted in a simple but powerful belief: I want to see you win. I don't just view therapy as a clinical process; I see it as a partnership designed to bridge the gap between where you are now and the fullness of your potential.
If your child is struggling with big feelings, hard behaviors, or school-related stress, you have found a safe place. I have worked alongside kids, teens, and their families since
2005, creating a playful, welcoming space where they can finally feel understood. I draw from play therapy, AutPlay, and creative approaches tailored to your child's
personality and developmental stage. I also partner with caregivers, teachers, and other supports so your child is not doing this work alone. My goal is to help them
understand themselves better, build confidence, and feel more in control of their emotions and choices.
Life can feel overwhelming when you're facing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, chronic stress, or major life transitions. You may find yourself feeling stuck, emotionally exhausted, disconnected from others, or unsure how to move forward. I work with adults and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, stress management concerns, women's issues, relationship difficulties, anger management challenges, and life changes that can impact emotional well-being. With more than 12 years of counseling experience, I help clients better understand the thoughts, emotions, and patterns that may be contributing to their struggles while developing practical tools for lasting change. Whether you're coping with personal challenges, relationship stress, self-doubt, or feeling overwhelmed by life's demands, therapy can provide a supportive space to gain clarity, build confidence, and create healthier ways of responding to difficult situations.
As a board-certified clinical therapist, I view mental health as essential to overall well-being. Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest steps, and I’m proud of you for taking it. With over 15 years of experience, I’m here to support you on your journey. Everyone’s story is unique and deserves an individualized approach to care.
Hi, I'm Deborah Auguste, LPC. After a successful career in engineering, I followed my calling to become a counselor and earned my Master's degree in Counseling with an emphasis in Addiction Counseling from Crown College. I'm passionate about helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life's challenges with compassion and hope by providing a warm, supportive, and culturally sensitive space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, addiction, and life transitions using practical, evidence-based approaches tailored to each person's unique needs. I also offer Christian counseling for clients who wish to integrate their faith into the therapeutic process. As a certified Prepare/Enrich facilitator, I enjoy helping couples strengthen communication, deepen their connection, and build healthy, lasting relationships.
I am a therapist who genuinely loves this work and the people I get to do it with. I work with adults who are navigating big life changes, relationship shifts, and the kind of moments that make you stop and ask "who am I now?" My approach is flexible and collaborative, so we figure out together what you need and how to get there. I work fully virtually, so you can show up to sessions from wherever feels most comfortable for you.
Hi, I’m Elizabeth, a Licensed Professional Counselor who believes therapy is a collaborative process built on trust and the belief that every person has the capacity for growth. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing tools to create meaningful change. I specialize in working with individuals navigating addiction, trauma, anxiety, and other life stressors using a strengths-based approach and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques tailored to each client’s individual needs.

Find the right therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Savannah
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.
