My name is Natalia Dankwa, and I am a licensed clinical social worker. As a dedicated therapist with four years of experience, I specialize in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and strength-based therapy. My approach integrates these evidence-based methods to create a comprehensive and personalized therapeutic experience.

I approach therapy with sensitivity, compassion, and encouragement. I believe in empowering my clients to tap into their strengths, intuition, self-love, and motivation. I support individuals as they navigate identity and heal from past trauma and harmful perspectives. I incorporate mindfulness, breathwork, acceptance, attunement, and understanding the nervous system into my practice. I value the partnership between client and clinician, which shows up in my body-based work and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). These practices can help people feel freer to trust their body and mind in the healing process. I love to infuse sessions with humor and optimism, creating an environment that supports deep work while also offering moments of much-needed levity as people navigate healing in an increasingly complicated world.

As adjunct faculty at Emory University, I also stay at the forefront of mental health to ensure my clients receive the most effective care available.

My name is Tori, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I approach therapy from an integrative perspective with an emphasis on Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Processing Theory, Narrative Therapy, Expressive Arts and Mindfulness Techniques, and some Feminist Theories as well. I have a Holistic and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe that you are the expert of your own experience, and my job is never to tell you what to do but instead to support you along your healing journey, process what comes up on the path to healing, and empower you in your continued growth. I have a Holistic and collaborative approach to therapy. I believe that you are the expert of your own experience, and my job is never to tell you what to do but instead to support you along your healing journey, process what comes up on the path to healing, and empower you in your continued growth. I prefer to work with adults. I have experience with depression, anxiety, BIPOC, relationship issues, self-care, body positivity, LGBTQ+ affirming care, trauma, self-esteem, processing the impacts of systemic oppression and capitalism, grief, and much more. To me, it is essential to create a safe, judgment-free, supportive, empathetic, inclusive, warm, and empowering environment for my clients. The best analogy I can use to describe what it feels like working with me therapeutically is: Imagine we are in a car. You are driving, and I am in the passenger seat. Along the path, you decide where we go and which turns we make. I may make an observation or shed some light on a caution sign you might have missed previously, but no matter what turns you take, I am right there with you supporting you on this journey. We may encounter some rough terrain, but you will not have to manage it alone." I always knew I wanted to be in the helping field. My mission in life has always been to positively impact the lives of others. When it came time to decide on a career path, this made the most sense for me because my whole life, I naturally found myself in the role of providing emotional support for friends, family, and even strangers. We set expectations and goals for therapy in the first two sessions. As we continue and adjust over time, we will revisit the goals as needed along the way to make any necessary changes. The first session is much more structured than most of our sessions will be because we will be reviewing informed consent, completing intake information, creating goals for therapy, and discussing your previous experiences in therapy so I can have a clear understanding of what you valued from that experience and what didn't work for you.

I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 5 years of experience providing clinical care to children, adolescents, and adults. I work with individuals facing stress, anxiety, trauma histories, emotional regulation challenges, and strained family relationships. Many clients seek support during major life transitions or want help understanding patterns that keep them feeling stuck. My approach is practical, goal-oriented, and focused on steady progress.

If you are feeling exhausted from carrying the weight of severe depression, intrusive thoughts, or relentless anxiety, and you feel like you have tried every medication and therapy without relief, I want you to know that you're not alone. Perhaps you are battling the exhausting cycles of obsessive-compulsive challenges (OCD), feeling overwhelmed by thoughts of suicide, or wondering if you will ever find a treatment that actually works for your depression. There is hope, even when you feel like you have run out of options. When you work with me, you are partnering with a specialist who understands the complex, high-stakes nature of severe mental health struggles. My background in intensive care unit (ICU) nursing means I am uniquely equipped to navigate crisis, manage complex conditions, and offer cutting-edge, evidence-based interventions. I specialize in treating OCD, suicidal ideation, and treatment-resistant depression using a highly personalized approach. Our process goes beyond traditional medication management. Together, we will integrate targeted psychotherapy strategies and explore advanced, rapid-acting options like Spravato® (esketamine) to help interrupt the cycle of despair. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can confront your deepest fears and work collaboratively toward relief. My ultimate goal is to help you regain control of your mind and your life.

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 orientation to therapy is cognitive behavior and believe that it's important to have a good connection with my clients before diving into what needs to be addressed. Starting in 2009 during my counseling residency, I have participated in training as well as obtained certifications in therapy models, including certification in A-CRA and CT-R as well as trained in TF-CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and CBT.

Hi there! My name is Eniola Akinsunmi and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have a BA in Psychology from Tuskegee University and a MA in Counseling from Argosy University- Atlanta. My approach is always rooted in meeting where the client is; I create a safe and non-judgmental atmosphere so that the client can feel free to express hisherself. I utilize a person-centered approach to build a rapport with the client and I integrate theoretical approaches that best suit the client's issues. My population of interest is adults. Adulthood comes with a lot of transitions and changes that can be overwhelming, and I believe we humans need help once in a while to overcome hurdles in our lives. I have a passion to help individuals as they are going through life obstacles and I believe a good therapeutic relationship can help them achieve their goals for therapy. I always make sure I communicate effectively and utilize effective active listening skills because I want my client to feel heard. My calm and soft tone with added humor allows my client to feel at ease when they are in sessions with me. The first session is very light; it's the intake session. This is where I get to know you more and you get to know more about my approach.
