Therapy Services for Individuals
Our Therapists offer one-on-one therapy sessions for adults and older adolescents (ages 15-65). Our individual counseling work is grounded in traditional psychotherapy with a focus on Positive Psychology.
As generalists, our therapists treat individuals with a wide range of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, self-esteem issues, and those looking to improve their life overall. However, this practice does not accept patients who may be suicidal, those who are in extreme crisis or considered severe, as there is no after-hours availability.
We welcome potential new patients to contact us to determine if Positive Living Psychotherapy is a good fit for you, and will offer a referral if another clinician may better meet your needs. The goal at Positive Living Psychotherapy is to move beyond symptom alleviation toward helping you live your best life.
Scheduling Your First Appointment
Therapy sessions are scheduled Monday through Saturday and are usually 55 minutes in length including check out and scheduling. This practice does not file insurance; however, the necessary paperwork is provided to you should you choose to file your insurance. Visa, Mastercard, American Express, cash or personal check are accepted.
Insurance is not accepted or filed by this practice. Positive Living Psychotherapy is not in-network with any insurance companies. However, we provide you with all the documentation necessary to file out-of-network with your insurance company for reimbursement directly to you based on your plan benefits.
Full payment is due at the time of your session.
Positive Psychotherapy is a Team Effort
It is our belief that as people become more aware and accepting of themselves, they are more capable of finding a sense of peace and contentment in their lives. However, self-awareness and self-acceptance are goals that may take a long time to achieve. Some clients need only a few sessions to achieve these goals, whereas others may require months of therapy. As a client, you may end your relationship with me at any point.
In order for therapy to be most successful, it is important for you to take an active role. This means working on the things we talk about both during and between sessions. Generally, the more of yourself you are willing to invest, the greater the return.
Our Goals For You As Your Positive Living Psychotherapist
It is our intention to empower you in your growth process to the degree that you are capable of facing life’s challenges in the future without me. We also don’t believe in creating dependency or prolonging therapy if the therapeutic intervention does not seem to be helping. If this is the case, we will direct you to other resources that will be of assistance to you. Your personal development is my number one priority. Our goal is to facilitate healing and growth, and I am very committed to helping you in whatever way may produce maximum benefit.
Confidentiality
Confidentiality is of utmost importance in my profession. We will always keep everything you say to us confidential and in accordance with the Ethics Code of the American Psychological Association, the American Counseling Association, the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy, and the laws of the State of Georgia.
