Family therapy and counseling in Snellville, GA

Jami Rieffel, LMFT

Founder & Therapist, CoAuthored Therapy

I believe therapy is most powerful when it feels like a story we write together. I bring a collaborative, narrative-based approach to working with individuals, couples, and families. My goal is to create a space where clients feel both supported and empowered to re-author the stories that shape their lives.

I earned my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from National University, where I focused on systems theory and narrative practice. Over the years, I’ve worked with diverse populations supporting clients through challenges such as relationship transitions, trauma recovery, and identity exploration.

I've been a Licensed Professional Counselor for 12 years and have a private office for those who live near my office. I have experience in Christian Counseling, Low Self-esteem, Communication Skills, Coping Skills, Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, ADD, Anger Management, Relationship issues, Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence and see clients ages 6 and up.

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.

I believe genuine healing springs from feeling fully understood and accepted. In our work together, you'll find a therapist who listens deeply, asks curious questions, and partners with you to uncover pathways toward growth and relief. We co-design your journey based on your goals, values, and strengths.

I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where healing begins with feeling truly seen and heard. I believe each person's story is rich with meaning and resilience, and therapy should honor your lived experience. Whether you're navigating anxiety, overwhelm, loss, or major life transitions, I meet you where you are with curiosity, respect, and care.
