Greetings! My name is Kara Stewart, I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in the state of Georgia and Virginia. I have worked in the mental health field for over 20 years and have a passion for assisting others with finding their sense of wholeness and fulfillment. I obtained a M.S. in Counseling and Psychology with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I also have a M.S. in Mental Health and Wellness with an emphasis in Christian Ministry. I specialize in trauma, grief, life transitions, and other mood disorders.
Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor, I believe that a warm, non-judgmental connection is the foundation of meaningful healing. Reaching out for support takes courage, and my goal is to walk alongside you in a collaborative, person-centered space. While I bring extensive clinical experience to my practice and am currently completing my PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, my approach is always human-first and tailored to your unique needs. I also specialize in play therapy, offering creative and developmentally appropriate tools for younger clients to safely process their emotions. Whatever your goals may be, I am here to support and empower you every step of the way.
Hi, I’m a compassionate Nurse Practitioner, who believes healing starts with feeling safe, heard, and understood. I work with adults navigating anxiety, insomnia, depression, opioid addiction, and postpartum depression, using practical, evidence-based approaches tailored to your needs. My style is supportive, down-to-earth, and collaborative—I meet you where you are and move at your pace. Together, we’ll focus on building skills, insight, and hope for lasting change.
Welcome to the first step of the rest of your life. Deciding to begin your therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming and sometimes impossible. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’m passionate about helping people feel heard, understood, and empowered. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and build the tools they need to move forward. My approach is collaborative and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story and strengths.
Hi, I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Reiki II practitioner. I believe that somewhere underneath the anxiety, the self-doubt, and the patterns that keep repeating, there is a version of you that already knows the way. My job isn't to fix you. It's to create a space steady enough that you can actually hear yourself. Together we get curious about the thoughts that won't quiet down, the emotions that feel bigger than the moment, the behaviors that keep showing up even when you don't want them to, and what all of it is actually trying to tell you. I bring tools into our work that help you understand what's happening in your mind and body when you're overwhelmed, so you can actually do something about it instead of just surviving it. But more than any method or modality, I show up as a real person walking alongside you, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.
To ensure absolute confidence in our partnership, you should know that I operate less like a traditional therapist and more like a psychological strategist. Built specifically for high-achievers accustomed to heavy loads, my approach does not rely on passive listening. Instead, I am highly active, engaged, and direct. I match your cognitive speed, treating your emotional well-being with the same urgency and strategic precision you apply to your most critical professional ventures.
Within our sessions, the usual hierarchies are stripped away to provide a rare ecosystem of utmost discretion and radical candor. Because I am entirely focused on the human being operating the machine, I will gently but firmly challenge your blind spots and call out self-sabotaging logic. You will never hear me hide behind clinical jargon; instead, I translate complex behavioral science into plain, actionable frameworks designed for a logical, analytical mind.
Ultimately, I view myself as a specialized asset in your corner, operating on the principle that insight without execution is just an expensive conversation. Our work prioritizes data and action, ensuring every concept is pressure-tested in the real world—whether in your boardroom, your marriage, or your internal life. My sole objective is to help you optimize your inner world so your outer success is sustainable, fulfilling, and integrated with the people you love.
Hello and welcome! I’m a ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) License in GA, MD, and North Dakota. I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care across the lifespan. I hold a master’s degree in nursing with specialized training in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and medication management, as well as psychotherapy.
My practice focuses on treating a range of conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, addiction recovery and perinatal mental health concerns. I integrate a client-centered approach that may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and lifestyle interventions alongside medication when appropriate.
I believe in building a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in trust, respect, and collaboration. Whether you're seeking support for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I believe that hope and healing are possible for everyone. My counseling approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful change can occur when individuals, couples, and families partner with a compassionate, skilled therapist who provides effective support and practical mental health resources. I am committed to creating a safe, supportive environment where clients can gain insight, build resilience, and work toward their goals. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and work with you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Georgia
Searching for therapists in Georgia starts with finding someone whose training fits your needs. Across the state, therapy options vary between larger cities, suburbs, and rural areas, so it helps to look closely at each therapist’s specialties and approach. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, review whether a therapist lists experience with those concerns. You can also look for approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Your search may look different in Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, or other parts of Georgia. Some people prefer in-person appointments close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions to fit care into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what a first session may include, and whether their background matches what you want from therapy.
The cost of mental health care in Georgia varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Georgia therapists who are accepting new clients, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and your exact coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you are ready.
