I enjoy helping teenagers preparing for or adjusting to college. College can be a difficult transition. It brings with it a newfound independence, which can be overwhelming or intimidating. By helping students explore their identity and become more confident in themselves, I help them navigate this challenging time in order to experience all the excitement and rewards that college can bring. Additionally, if you struggle with perfectionism and self-criticism, I’m the kind of therapist who can help you learn to love and accept yourself, as you are, and be okay with asking for help when you need it!

As a therapist I believe that all of use can benefit from the use of help at times in managing the struggles brought on by the stresses of daily living, work, or school, life transitions, grief, and past traumas. Therapy may also be the right choice when long-standing feelings of anxiety, unhappiness or shame have hindered you from living your best life. I focus on the whole person: physically, emotionally, mentally, sexually, and spirituality. It is my goal to join with you and together work towards healing and a more meaningful life. The heart of my practice is to empower clients as they journey towards wholeness and health. I provide a safe, respectful, nurturing, and nonjudgmental environment for clients to process and explore concerns that brought them to therapy. Am I a good fit to walk with you on your journey? The best way to find out is to begin with a free phone consultation.

Counselor

Amanda is a Licensed Professional Counselor. She has worked in the mental health field since 2004 and wants to see her clients live holistic, full, integrated lives and thus in collaboration with the client attempts to address all concerns in a way that is customized to each individual person's needs and wants. For some individuals this will mean homework outside of sessions (CBT), for others it may mean the use of a specialized technique (like EMDR), and for some individuals this may mean traditional talk therapy (perhaps in conjunction with walking during therapy). Amanda sees adults for individual and group therapy for varying concerns including but not limited to grief, trauma, sexual addictions, depression, and anxiety. Amanda has a particular interest in seeing young adults thrive in the transition from childhood to adulthood.

My name is Danielle Veader and I work with young adults that are struggling to find balance and enjoyment in their lives. The stress of early adulthood can be really overwhelming. Class work, parental expectations, and navigating relationships is challenging. Anxiety, depression, and/or a general sense of feeling lost can seep in. I work with clients to help them better understand and manage their emotions. I partner with them to acquire the tools and skills to better cope with the inevitable stressors of life. We all understand that life can be hard, but no one has to navigate it alone.

I specialize in supporting high-achieving professionals—especially those in academia or the helping profession (doctors, nurses, therapists, pastors)—who grapple with perfectionism, difficulty setting boundaries, codependency, and the challenge of prioritizing their own needs amidst the many demands of their personal and professional lives. As an immigrant, I bring a rich, cross-cultural perspective to therapy and a deep appreciation for how culture shapes identity, relationships, and mental health. Many of my clients are navigating complex intersections of cultural expectations, academic roles, and personal values. In addition to my clinical practice, I am a professor and active researcher. My academic work focuses on interpersonal trauma and its impact on relationships and meaning-making. This dual identity as both clinician and scholar informs my approach: deeply reflective, integrative, and grounded in both science and lived experience. I work exclusively via Telehealth with adult clients residing in GA, MI, and TX. I believe that meaningful change begins with a strong therapeutic relationship—one that offers both safety and challenges patterns by providing direct and honest feedback. If you're ready to invest in yourself and your well-being, I invite you to reach out.

Great to meet you! Welcome to Ascend!! "If you can't fly, run. If you can't run, walk. If you can't walk, crawl, but by all means, keep moving." This quote from Martin Luther King, Jr. captures how I approach therapy and life. I'm Charles Smith, a Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor. I work with adolescents, adults, and families navigating ADHD, anxiety and panic disorders, anger management, depression, low self-esteem, substance use and abuse, communication challenges, conflict resolution, career concerns, parenting skills, problem behaviors, and social skills issues. My style is humorous, honest, and real. I believe therapy works best when you can be your authentic self, and sometimes that means laughing together even when we're doing serious work. Aside from providing therapy, I am married and the father of three children. I enjoy writing, making music, consulting, mentoring, and spending time with family and friends. I love learning and meeting new challenges, and I am continually looking for ways to grow and develop a healthier understanding of myself, others, and the world. I am passionate about assisting clients with achieving their goals and enhancing their overall quality of life. Prior to becoming a therapist, I spent many years as a Social Worker in New York City. In 2004, I relocated to Atlanta, Georgia where I spent eight years working for the State of Georgia Department of Family and Children Services. I have a diverse background working with multicultural populations, and I bring that depth of experience into every session. My approach to therapy is warm, collaborative, and practical. I help clients understand how distorted perceptions and thoughts can contribute to painful feelings and unwanted behaviors, and we focus not only on understanding your thoughts and emotions, but also on building real-life skills you can use every day to manage stress, improve relationships, and feel more confident. I provide unconditional support while gently challenging you to grow and successfully complete your goals. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or feeling unproductive, I am here to walk alongside you while helping you feel empowered, gain knowledge, understanding, and confidence. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic therapy, and Strength-Based approaches while also meeting you where you are. You can expect a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can speak openly and be your authentic self. We'll talk about what brought you in, what's been weighing on you, and what you're hoping will change. I'll ask questions to understand your story, your challenges, your strengths, and your goals for treatment. My goal is to help you become the best version of yourself and to create new and better normals. You can expect honesty, humor when appropriate, and real talk about what it takes to move forward. My goal is for you to leave our first session feeling supported, hopeful, and clear about the path forward. Remember: keep moving, one step at a time.

Within my practice, I have diligently developed a way to blend person-centered counseling, trauma-informed care, and spiritual wellness to guide individuals to noticeable relief during life transitions, self-worth struggles, emotional wounds, and other various challenges. I work with young and maturing individuals ready for emotional awareness, self-worth restoration, and spiritual realignment. My clients seek a safe space to break free, rediscover, and become who they were created to be—whole, worthy, and beautifully aligned. I work collaboratively with you to set meaningful, realistic goals that reflect your values and areas where you desire healing or growth. We explore your story, identify what's weighing you down, and clarify what realignment looks like for you—whether that's increased self-worth, better coping skills, or deeper spiritual connection.
