My name is Kevin Larry and I am a licensed clinical social worker and a master's addiction counselor who has over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. I believe in a strengths-based approach utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy techniques. I am experienced in working with individuals, families, couples, and groups in a variety of settings. My specialties include mental health, substance abuse, anxiety, stress, depression, anger and aggression, trauma, attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD), intellectual/developmental diagnoses, mild autism, family issues, couple/marriage issues, gender-related issues, sexual assault, LGBTQ+, domestic violence, and several other behavioral related issues.

Can therapy help if I seem fine to everyone else but feel overwhelmed inside? At Sunny Wellness of Honey, we are committed to helping individuals and couples who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic stress, relationship concerns, emotional exhaustion, and major life transitions. With more than 15 years of experience in the mental health field, our practice is grounded in thoughtful, individualized care that helps clients understand how their thoughts, emotions, past experiences, and daily responses affect their quality of life. Many of our clients come to therapy because they are overthinking, feeling constantly overwhelmed, struggling with low self-esteem, experiencing relationship conflict, having difficulty setting boundaries, or finding that stress is affecting their sleep, motivation, concentration, or ability to feel present. Others may be coping with trauma responses, avoidance, intrusive thoughts, burnout, emotional disconnection, or a sense that they are functioning on the outside while feeling depleted internally. Our goal is to help you make sense of what is happening and develop practical ways to respond differently. Depending on your needs, therapy may focus on reducing anxiety and depression symptoms, improving emotional regulation, strengthening self-worth, managing stress, communicating more effectively, rebuilding trust, working through trauma-related reactions, or making decisions during difficult life transitions. Our clinicians draw from evidence-based approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). CBT may be used to examine the thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship difficulties. ACT may help you feel less controlled by distressing thoughts and emotions, clarify what matters to you, and make choices that are more aligned with your values, even when discomfort is present. We do not believe therapy should feel generic or overly scripted. Our approach is collaborative, practical, and tailored to your concerns, identity, relationships, and goals. We work with you to identify what is contributing to your distress, what has and has not been helpful in the past, and what changes are realistic and meaningful for your life. Our practice provides an affirming, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult experiences, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and develop more effective ways of coping with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. If you are interested in working with one of our clinicians, we welcome you to send an appointment request to get started.

My name is Barbara Sims-King. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) and pastoral counselor with over 20 years of experience. I have success working with those who are suffering from the effects of depression, anxiety, anger, trauma, and grief. My current focus is with men aged 18 and up, gaining emotional insight into life's challenges. When life gets the "better" of us, it may appear that life has won the fight and we have lost. Life is not the enemy, life is just life, and as a counselor, I find that my job is to lift up hope as a beacon light to those seeming to be floundering in a sea of circumstances. The light comes with encouragement, support, and an unfailing belief in the good of humankind. Let me join you on the journey to healing, towards a celebration of your life.

Regina Sewell MA LPC (Georgia License #LPC013152) As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am dedicated to helping individuals tap into their true potential and overcome the obstacles that prevent them from living fulfilling lives. I encourage clients to explore their deepest emotions, thoughts, and aspirations to uncover the root causes of dissatisfaction and work toward healing and personal growth. My focus areas include anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, low self-esteem, and anger management. As I become more familiar with your concerns, we will modify them as needed and then determine the most appropriate strategies to help you make progress. I most frequently use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice with a more integrative and holistic approach to healing and mental well-being. Other therapeutic approaches include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) techniques, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). While my work is dedicated to assisting individuals from diverse backgrounds, I am particularly committed to supporting black-identifying women and men. I recognize the unique experiences and challenges they face, and I strive to provide a space that honors their identities and fosters healing and growth. My therapeutic focus areas include anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma, low self-esteem, and anger management. In our sessions, clients can expect an emotionally safe and non-judgmental space where they can freely express their emotions, fears, and desires. I will listen attentively, offering guidance and support as we navigate through the challenges they're facing. My life was that of the "prescribed path," the one considered successful by doing all the "right things," such as going to college and getting a good job. My life was that prescribed path until I did my own work to turn it around. I'm passionate about helping clients realize their human potential for self-actualization, releasing past fears, and turning their pains into joy for more creative and inspired living. Our therapeutic relationship will be built on trust, empathy, and collaboration, allowing us to work together towards their goals. Collaboration is key to creating specific, measurable, actionable, attainable goals and the client's willingness to go on the journey towards healing and feeling better. The initial session will be one of information gathering with reference to the biological, psychological, and social history of the presenting mental health concern. We'll explore what brought the client to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help them make progress.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am passionate about helping individuals thrive and I believe that everyone is capable of doing amazing things when given the right opportunities and environment to succeed. I have found joy in helping individuals become healthier versions of themselves. I have worked within specialized high acuity programs and within traditional outpatient settings, so no matter the setting or the level of care needed, I can be adaptable and dynamic enough to handle challenges with great empathy and understanding. I am an adolescent and adult therapist. I believe in looking at an individual's whole health - their mind, body, and spirit, as they are interconnected, in order to create balance. I utilize a strengths-based approach to empower individuals while helping them to build their hope and resiliency. I have a lot of experience working with individuals struggling with mood disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, etc., individuals who have experienced trauma, and individuals struggling with navigating relationships or life transitions. My top modalities are Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. I also incorporate trauma-focused treatment and mindfulness. I believe the therapeutic relationship is very important and a key aspect of a client’s success. To choose to commit to therapy is a decision that takes great strength, courage, and vulnerability but it is also so very rewarding. The ideal client is one who is willing to commit to this journey of whole health and healing by doing the work needed. As your therapist, I am willing to commit to helping you along this journal and to work just as hard for you as you are willing to work for yourself. My communication style is very open and empathetic. A significant part of building a therapeutic relationship is my ability to listen to clients and make them feel heard and understood. I am engaging, positive, warm, friendly, and attuned with my clients. I utilize reflective listening skills to ensure we are able to connect and to ensure I get to know clients personally. I believe the details matter and that it is a privilege to hear someone’s story. I come from a close family unit, and I am the oldest of two children, so I have always been accustomed to caring for others. Before even attending university, I knew I wanted to build a career focused on helping others. Along the way, I found social work and I have not looked back since. I have earned both my bachelor's and master’s degree in Clinical Social Work which allowed me to not only focus on my clinical skills but also it allowed me the opportunity to gain more understanding of people, and the differences amongst us that make us all unique, how the systems in which we were raised within affect us and how to identify the strengths within each of us. I have worked with various populations and within all levels of care and my background has truly given me the ability to empathize and understand people in a unique way and has continually ignited my passion for helping others. I believe in meeting clients where they are in life and helping to guide them to where they need to be. This journey is about progress, not perfection and everyone is capable of change if they are willing to change. My goal is that each client is able to learn ways to better navigate challenges, cope with stressors, and become a healthier version of themselves over time. During our first session, we will begin getting to know each other. I will ask several questions to gain insight into your background, challenges, and goals for treatment over time to ensure that we are both working towards the same goals. This is also your opportunity to get to know me and ask any questions to aid with building our therapeutic relationship.

I'm a licensed professional counselor and a master addiction counselor committed to enhancing life-long growth and improvement. My passion is helping people find their way through challenging life passages and learning to accept themselves. I value genuine and honest dialogue, laughter, as well as tears. I want to help you make the changes you want to make and accept those things that are not within your power. I've worked with students, professors, prisoners, addicts, survivors, vets, and parents, to name just a few. I'm certain we can find common ground to work together. My goal in therapy is to provide a warm and accepting space for you to explore who you are and who you want to become. I believe you already have the answers, I believe you already have the answers and my job is to help you find them. Therapy can be an adventure that helps you discover your strengths and create a fulfilling future. I can be a teacher, a listener, a coach, a guide, or a partner to help you see things through. I primarily use a cognitive-behavioral approach in conjunction with acceptance and commitment therapy, but I’m flexible, depending on your needs. I’m experienced in motivational interviewing, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness, cognitive processing therapy, pastoral counseling, and trauma-informed care. Depression, anxiety, loss, addiction, bipolar disorder, relationship problems, and adjusting to change are some of the issues we can work on together. My ideal client is willing to accept help, able to reflect on their experience, honest about their thoughts and feelings, open to new ideas, and ready to try something different. I think I'm best at listening carefully and asking thoughtful questions to help you understand the issues and patterns of behavior that underlie your current problems. I communicate by listening closely, reflecting back on what I've heard, asking questions, and offering different perspectives on a situation. I listen calmly, without judgment, I pause to think before speaking, and I try not to sound like your mother! I have always been interested in what makes people tick! I suppose it started with trying to figure out myself and my family And a continual quest to become a better person. My first career was in communications. Along the way, I had some personal struggles, family problems, and great loss. I found help through therapy, 12-step programs, and spirituality. I decided I wanted to help others who had struggles, too. I went back to school for my master's degree in counseling at Loyola University in Baltimore, MD. I worked in long-term residential substance abuse programs. I sought additional training in treating trauma survivors because many of my substance abuse clients had experienced childhood abuse. I also had a great deal of training in treating clients who have both mental health and substance use problems. To be successful in therapy, the client and I have to trust each other enough to be honest. When a client is able to see a situation more clearly, has committed to a new approach, and has made efforts to change, they are making progress. When the client is comfortable with the progress they have made and is ready to practice new skills on their own, therapy has been successful. During our first session, I will introduce myself, and ask the client to tell me why they are interested in therapy now and whether they have experience with therapy or have seen a psychiatrist before. Then I'll ask a lot of questions about their health, family and friends, major life events, and current living situation to get an idea of who they are. Kind of like speed dating1 Then we will talk about what they want to work on in therapy, options for the approach we will use, whether they are interested in moving forward with therapy, and if so, a tentative plan for treatment and when we will meet again.

As a wife or mom, you’re constantly spinning plates – and dropping at least one every day. Your time is consumed by schedules, appointments, messes, and managing everyone else’s needs, while your own stress and emotions go unaddressed. The mental load never lets up: remembering everything, being needed by everyone, and still feeling like it’s never enough. You’ve tried pushing through, making lists, telling yourself this is just a season, but the exhaustion always returns. A quiet fear sets in that this is simply who you are now: a woman with no space left for herself. What you want is steadiness, clarity, and room to breathe again. I work with overwhelmed mothers to uncover what’s actually draining their energy and why willpower alone keeps failing. Together, we identify hidden stressors, restore structure that supports your real life, and rebuild connection to your needs and identity. The focus is practical, relational, and designed to reduce overload, not add more to your plate. As responsibility becomes more sustainable, days feel calmer and more intentional. You respond instead of react, set boundaries without guilt, and show up with more presence in your relationships. Mornings feel grounded instead of rushed, and life opens up beyond constant caretaking. It’s time to rediscover yourself. Reach out today for a free consultation.
