Gracile Dawes

Alpharetta Counseling

Alpharetta, GA

I bring over 15 years of experience to my work. I completed my Master’s in Professional Counseling at Richmont Graduate University in 2004 after obtaining a Bachelor in Science in Psychology and a Bachelor of Arts in Religion at Furman University in 2002. I am trained in DBT and EMDR. If your faith is important to you, we can certainly incorporate that into our therapy. My approach integrates more concrete aspects of cognitive behavior therapy and more abstract and integrative components of faith and mindfulness. Being a person-centered therapist, I know that each of us has the desire and capacity for growth and change and I bring that knowledge to each session.

Katie Smith

Katie Smith

Arbor Cove Therapy, LLC

Roswell, GA

Katie's guiding principle is that we are designed for relationship. When we are disconnected within our body, mind, or spirit, cut off from meaningful relationships with significant others, separated from purpose in our larger community, or spiritually isolated, we miss the wholeness of life that we were intended to enjoy. Therapy can provide a supportive space where people are free to explore areas of disconnection, experience healing and reconnection, and move forward with confidence that while their past has shaped them, it no longer defines them. Katie works with children, adolescents, and adult women. She is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who obtained her Master of Social Work from University of Georgia in 2001 and her clinical license in 2003. Katie uses frameworks of interpersonal neurobiology and attachment theory and evidence-based/informed therapies with her clients. She uses these frameworks to treat anxiety, depression, and emotional and behavioral challenges rooted in various forms of trauma; help people involved in adoption to navigate issues related to attachment, grief and loss, trauma, and identity; counsel women who are navigating life transitions and developing renewed purpose; and provide parents with neurobiologically informed strategies.
