I am an LCSW in Georgia (CSW009909) and LICSW in Alabama (6757C) providing therapy for PTSD in a cozy office in downtown Savannah, Georgia, or via telehealth.

Hi! My name is Elana, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia, I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. I have experience working with people of all ages in multiple different settings. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. Whether you’re coping with overwhelming stress, adjusting to a major life change, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I offer a safe and nonjudgmental space for healing and growth. Together, we’ll work toward greater balance, confidence, and well-being.
Are you approaching a later-life transition — retirement, or grown children who suddenly act like they're the parent? Or navigating an overwhelming cancer diagnosis? I've been there, and now I'm here to help you redefine your new normal.
I'm Sonya T. Cruel, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years in the field. I've provided well-rounded care across healthcare, school, and faith-based settings — and my own experience as a three-time breast cancer survivor has taught me the kind of compassion, resilience, and hope that only comes from facing real challenges.
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 glad you're here. My name is Saúl.
I’m a dual-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner who provides compassionate, patient-centered psychiatric care. I understand that reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and I strive to create a space where you feel safe, heard, and supported without judgment.
With a background in both psychiatric and family medicine, I take a whole-person approach—considering both your mental and physical health when developing your treatment plan. My goal is to help you feel like yourself again.

Hi, I’m Triana Smith, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), and I believe you don’t have to navigate life’s hardest seasons alone. Therapy can be a place to slow down, feel understood, and make sense of what you’ve been experiencing without fear of judgment.
I have experience working with adolescents, adults, couples, and families, with particular interests in trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, identity, and major life transitions. With 3,500+ direct clinical hours, I’ve had the opportunity to work with people from many different backgrounds and at many different stages of life.
I especially enjoy working with people who may feel disconnected from themselves, overwhelmed by life’s demands, or unsure of who they are or what comes next. I also work with individuals and couples navigating communication difficulties, relationship patterns, emotional disconnection, grief, or the impact of past experiences on their current relationships.
My background includes trauma-focused work, and I approach each client with curiosity, compassion, and respect for their individual story. I believe that even the parts of ourselves we may feel ashamed of, frustrated by, or wish we could change deserve to be understood rather than judged.
For clients who desire it, I also provide Christian, faith-integrated therapy. Faith can be a meaningful source of hope, identity, strength, and healing, and I’m happy to incorporate Christian beliefs, values, and spirituality into therapy when that is important to you. You never have to fit into a particular mold—our work will always be guided by your needs, values, and goals.
My hope is that therapy becomes a place where you can move from simply surviving to truly thriving—developing greater self-understanding, healthier relationships, stronger confidence, and a deeper sense of purpose.
I am a licensed professional counselor with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I work with all ages, but my focus is working with adults. I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years. I also have experience and a passion for autism and wrote the book African American Fathers Raising An Autistic Child.
I am experienced and trained in assisting individuals of all ages in dealing with the most unfortunate life transitions. I offer morning, afternoon, and some evening appointments.
I also offer life coaching while focusing on personal empowerment, motivation, and strategies to define and reach your dreams!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Statesboro, GA
Searching for therapists in Statesboro starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists and counselors in Statesboro, GA, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and experience with the concerns you want to discuss. A therapist’s profile can also help you understand how they approach sessions, whether they use methods like cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, or family therapy.
In a smaller city like Statesboro, local in-person openings may be more limited, so virtual care can give you more options across Georgia. Some people prefer meeting with a therapist near Downtown, Southside, or the University District, while others choose virtual sessions for added schedule flexibility. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and fit for needs like Statesboro counseling, marriage counseling in Statesboro, GA, or individual therapy.
Therapy in Statesboro can be a significant expense 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 find licensed therapists, many of whom accept insurance, are accepting new clients, and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs before booking, browse therapist profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
