Enrollment Into
Services
Enroll in emotional wellness by calling (404) 589-9040 to complete a 10 – 15 minute phone screening. You will be assigned an intake and set-up for ongoing counseling appointments. Psychiatry services are typically provided in conjunction with counseling.
We offer individual, family, and couples counseling and psychotherapy. Psychotherapy services are to help you solve problems that may be limiting your satisfaction in life, and to help you cope better with the feelings and challenges that you encounter in your daily life.
We provide groups that bring people together who are coping with similar issues or concerns in a safe, warm, and affirming environment. Groups provide the ability to increase self-awareness, make new social connections with others, and gain a sense of community.
Our psychiatric services include assessments and on-going medication management for patients who are actively participating in psychotherapy.
Peers provide individual sessions and facilitate support groups. They work from the client’s strengths and can help reduce stigma and increase self-acceptance.Â
Telemedicine
Our emotional wellness team added Telehealth to help patients remain healthy, save time, engaged in care, and protect themselves by staying home during the COVID-19 pandemic and Flu season. Telehealth is the process of providing psychotherapy and psychiatry assessment via confidential video conferencing or phone sessions.
