Jennifer Keith, Psy.D., P.C.

Sandy Springs, GA

Your mind races with thoughts that begin with What if? Your anxiety gets in the way of your relationships, steals your joy, and limits your potential for happiness at home and at work. Worrying about things you cannot control has become a habit, which is hard to break because you believe that the worry prevents the thing from happening. You worry about your relationships, your family, your kids, and your work. Worry turns to guilt about not doing enough and not being enough. You long to quiet the inner critic, let go of the anxiety, feel like you are enough, and live a more fully engaged and balanced life. Through our collaborative efforts, you will learn the skills you need to conquer your worries and unwanted negative, anxious thoughts, communicate your needs effectively, and overcome feelings of guilt and self-doubt. We will work together to help you enjoy your life and relationships again, live fully in the present, and look forward to your future. As a licensed psychologist for over 15 years, I utilize research-supported interventions including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Using a positive psychology approach, we will identify your strengths and uncover ones you may not even recognize. When nurtured and channeled in the best way, these strengths will help you cope with the past, conquer current fears, and overcome future obstacles on your path. My job is to give you the tools you need to be your own therapist. I am also trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), which is considered a best practice in the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).

Ashlyn Ellington Counseling

Atlanta, GA

Joy, health, love, freedom—we all yearn for these things, but so often, we find our lives and minds devoid of them. We get stuck in our cycles, stuck in our troubles, stuck in our relationships.  At one point or another, we all need help figuring out what is burdening us and what we need to do to be the healthiest versions of ourselves, especially when it comes to how we function in relationships with others. I provide a non-judgmental, professional, and safe space to work through whatever is holding you back so you can move confidently into the future. Life is too short to continue living in dysfunctional patterns and relationships. You deserve someone to care about you and assist you in overcoming your struggles. I am here and ready to meet you where you are and help you move forward. I am passionate about helping others experience the fullness of life. My Christian faith is an integral part of my own journey, and it can be incorporated in our counseling sessions at whatever level you desire. I have my Masters in Counseling from Dallas Theological Seminary and have received advanced training in Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy. I believe that everyone can experience restoration and healing. You have already taken a very brave step in starting the process of trying to find the right counselor for you. It would be a privilege to partner with you in bringing about the change you want to see in your life, whether that be in yourself or in your marriage. We can pursue your goals together.
