More about Stephen

  • 12 years' experience
  • Male
  • LPC

I am licensed in Georgia with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, anger management, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I am also direct and won't fragilize you. My primary clinical approach is Dialectical Behavior Therapy. You can find out more about me at www.atlantadbt.com or www.radicalpathways.com

I play guitar, ride a motorcycle, and used to be a hardcore rock climber and mountaineer. Now I'm old and don't do that anymore :) If it matters to you, I am a member of Mensa. If it doesn't then forget I mentioned it :)

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
