I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who believes healing begins when people feel safe, seen, and supported. I work with clients who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and relationship challenges. My goal is to create a space where you can exhale, be honest about what you are carrying, and begin moving toward restoration at a pace that feels right for you.
Raessha Stanley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Trauma-Focused CBT practitioner, and Youth Crisis Intervention specialist. With years of experience in school-based and community mental health, I empower individuals to build resilience and healing from the inside out. Through my practice, Oh Ra! Holistic Healing, LLC, I provide therapy, trainings, and workshops that integrate evidence-based care with a holistic lens.
A lot of people arrive at a first therapy appointment braced for something solemn, as though they are about to be studied. That is not what happens here. I'm John, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Clinical Counseling Psychology from Valdosta State University, and I've spent more than twenty years doing this work across a variety of settings.
I work with adults dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, anger, grief and loss, and end-of-life concerns, as well as trauma, PTSD, substance use, sleep problems, and the strain of living with a chronic health condition. I also have a lot of experience with men's issues - especially men who have spent years keeping it all together and are tired of doing that alone.
What I bring is genuineness, humor, and real presence with whoever is in front of me. Not performed warmth, and not someone taking notes on you from behind a clipboard. Humor matters more in this work than people expect. Not to make light of what is hard, but because being able to laugh at something is often the first sign it has loosened its grip on you. Twenty years in, very little you bring will be unfamiliar to me, and none of it will make me think less of you.
I am Dr. Kerene Brown, licensed psychotherapist and clinical supervisor in both Georgia & Washington DC. I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, personal growth, and emotional challenges. I opened the doors to my practice with the goal of providing clients with top-of-the-line mental health services. Whether you’re looking for a bit of counseling, or need professional assistance overcoming a traumatic experience - your wellbeing is my number one priority. I go above and beyond to cater to the needs of every client with a personalized treatment approach.
Do you feel taken advantage of and like no matter what you do, you can't win? Are you a victim of emotional, verbal or physical abuse? Do you love someone who is caught up in the pain of addiction or mental illness? Have you tried everything you can think of but have no idea how to help or what else to do? Are you afraid your partner, spouse, adult child or other loved one will end up in jail, or worse? I get it. Maybe you're just mad. Maybe you're tired of having to handle everything yourself. I get that too.
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 have 16 years of counseling experience and work with teens, adults, and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, anger, trauma, stress, and major life transitions. I also support clients dealing with panic, OCD, sleep concerns, relationship issues, family conflict, and substance use.
My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. I take an open-minded, holistic, and solution-oriented approach, and I believe therapy should be tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals. I provide therapy in English and French.
Hi, I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping you feel balanced, heard, and supported. I have experience working with adults, children, and families across settings like inpatient, outpatient, and community care. My approach combines medication management with a compassionate, whole-person focus. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and life stressors, and I’m here to partner with you on your journey to better mental health.
