Hi! I am Dr. LaShonda Lane-Gammell. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a PhD in Counseling and Psychological Studies. My goal in therapy is to provide a safe place for others to heal.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. My approach to therapy is personalized, compassionate, and collaborative, focusing on using evidence-based techniques to help clients gain clarity, build coping skills, and reach their goals. I specialize in working with individuals facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, family conflicts, anger management, self-esteem issues, and parenting difficulties.

My name is Daryl Gessner and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) located in Cartersville, George. I work with clients face-to-face and throughout the state via telehealth. Many of my clients consist of adults, adolescents, and children, and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and anger management with individuals. Additionally, I also work extensively with couples counseling involving communication, infidelity, porn and other addictions, and relationship issues. I assist families with issues such as blended families, adoption, parenting, and relationship issues with young adults. In addition, I conduct testing for attention-deficit hyperactivity (ADHD) and autism.

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.

Hello. My name is Barbara Phillips, and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Georgia. I have 23 years of experience working in the mental health field. My experience includes treating clients who need help with anxiety, depression. stress management, anger management, grief management, and self-esteem. issue I use a client-centered approach with my clients. I strive to create an environment in which my clients feel safe and comfortable working with me. The most common theoretical approaches I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focus, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). However, the theoretical approach I use will depend on which one works best for my clients. I work with adults 18 years old to 90 years old. The conditions I feel comfortable treating include anxiety, depression, stress management, anger management, grief, and self-esteem issues. I strive to create an environment where my clients feel comfortable talking with me. I actively listen to what my clients tell me and validate their feelings. I have had people who helped me get through challenges I was facing in my life, and this inspired me to become a therapist. My faith in God has also given me the desire to help others. I believe that God places people in our lives to help us. I get great satisfaction from helping my clients get through challenges and live a happy life. My approach to goal setting with clients is to help them set the goals they want to achieve and to provide them with ongoing support. I strive to make clients feel comfortable during the first session with me. I get information from them that will help me to know how best to help them. Future sessions will be scheduled for the clients if they feel that I am a good match for them.

My name is Janie Thompson, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Dalton, Georgia working statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents and adults with an array of issues such as but not limited to anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with an eclectic approach to other modalities. My approach to therapy varies based on the needs of each individual. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is my primary approach allowing me to identify strengths in every person and build on their experiences with new skills and techniques to overcome obstacles. I provide support and education for individuals with empathy and kindness in a relaxed atmosphere.

Many of the people I work with look “fine” from the outside. They are capable, responsible, and committed to their families, work, and communities. Yet internally, they may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or uncertain about what comes next. Some are navigating relationship struggles, career stress, or major life transitions. Others simply feel like something is missing and want clarity about how to move forward in a healthier, more intentional way. You may not be in crisis—but you know something needs attention. My approach to counseling is thoughtful, practical, and grounded in helping you understand the patterns that shape your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Together, we identify the stressors and expectations you’re carrying, clarify what matters most to you, and develop tools that support emotional health, communication, and sustainable growth. I often work with high-functioning individuals and couples who are navigating stress, relationship challenges, burnout, or major life transitions. Therapy is not about fixing what’s broken—it’s about strengthening what matters and building a life that feels aligned with your values. As our work progresses, clients often experience greater clarity, improved relationships, and increased confidence in their decisions. Instead of reacting to stress or feeling stuck in old patterns, you learn how to respond intentionally and move forward with purpose. If you’re ready to gain clarity, strengthen your relationships, and take meaningful steps toward the life you want, I’d be honored to support you in that Pursuit.
