Therapists for college students near 30303
Olivia Egan
I graduated from The University of Georgia in 2011 with my masters in counseling; I worked as a staff therapist, suicide prevention coordinator, and disability services coordinator at Georgia Southern University and East Georgia State College respectively before going into private practice. I'm passionate about helping college students as they juggle demands and make major relationship and career decisions - it is a unique and overwhelming stage of life. I'm located near Charleston where I'm offering sessions via telehealth to GA & SC residents. Counseling can help improve communication between loved ones, support individuals adjusting to major life transitions, or develop coping skills to better manage emotions that have become distressing. I'm grateful you had the courage to explore counseling. Life is stressful at times and we can all use a safe place to receive support and feedback. It is my belief that each person has inherent value, and my goal is to encourage individuals to see their worth and facilitate them in making decisions they can reflect on with peace.

Ellie Mental Health Atlanta Sandy Springs
Feeling Stressed, Stuck, or Just Overwhelmed? College is exciting—but let’s be honest, it can also feel like too much. Between classes, relationships, family expectations, and trying to figure out who you are and where you’re going, it’s easy to feel anxious, burnt out, or lost. Therapy can give you space to breathe, sort things out, and build tools that actually work for your life right now. You don’t have to wait until you’re “in crisis” to talk to someone—sometimes the best time to reach out is when you just need a place to be real without judgment. Whether it’s stress, identity questions, relationship struggles, or just feeling like you’re carrying more than you should, I’m here to walk with you. Your story matters, and your well-being matters. Let’s start where you are. Book a session today and give yourself the support you deserve.
Tracy Fields, MA, LPC,NCC
College is a big step for most. It can be the first time we leave home. Navigating independence and responsibility. We can experience stress, failure, isolation, and loneliness. Understanding new relationships can be challenging. This season can create sadness, lack of motivation, unhealthy habits, anxiousness and more. Having a therapist walk alongside you during this time can reduce your symptoms and serve as an investment for your future. Tracy’s therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that healthy communication and strong boundaries are essential for personal growth and thriving relationships. She focuses on the over all health, include brain health, and works collaboratively with clients, using evidence-based techniques to help them achieve their goals and overcome barriers. As part of Tracy’s holistic approach to therapy, she is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly effective treatment for trauma recovery and other symptoms. She has advanced training in brain health, emotional focused therapy, Christian integration, and couples therapy. In addition, she has an understanding of military life. Whether navigating personal struggles or seeking healing, Tracy provides a safe, empathetic, and supportive environment to help clients find peace and fulfillment. At Transforming Fields our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing space for individuals and couples on their journey to emotional well-being. We are dedicated to offering evidence-based therapy and counseling services that empower our clients to overcome life’s challenges, heal from past traumas, and develop the resilience needed to thrive.

I involve clients and empower them to take ownership of their treatment journey and foster a sense of agency in their recovery. One of my key strengths as a therapist is my ability to assess current stressors and prioritize the most pressing issues facing my clients. I identify the areas of concern that impact my clients' well-being and focus our efforts on managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance abuse. I'm a therapist with Octave and Evernorth Behavioral Care Group. Octave is a mental health practice providing high-quality care covered by multiple insurances.

Griffin Smith
I know that simply being around others feels like an almost impossible task much of the time; people can be selfish, ignorant, and judgmental, at times even your family and friends. You've endured abuse and often are overwhelmed with emotion. Your external life and what you feel within yourself can feel wholly disconnected -- It is precisely because of this disconnection that we suffer. I am here to listen, to learn of your experiences, and together we will awaken a new sense of yourself by discovering a hidden humanity in others, revealing a world you never thought possible. You don’t have to live disconnected, suffering without end. I approach healing from a relational perspective, in which I believe our most powerful tool for change can be harnessed through relationships. We all naturally have the capacity to relate in ways that promote growth, we simply have never been shown how. I’m here to nurture this experience with you. I understand that taking the step to engage in therapy is a big ask. Trust isn’t easy; it’s fragile. But, I profoundly believe in the power of developing a relationship that promotes learning and spurs curiosity. It’s spiritual for me - the essence of joy, love, and beauty, and I truly wish for all to experience it. Will you take this step with me?
