How Counseling can help with Addiction – Therapists in Peachtree City

The now famous saying “The first step is admitting you have a problem” began as a reference to a person coming to terms with his/her addiction. Take a moment though to think about your life, career, family, hobbies and passions. What has gotten in the way of them? What has prevented you from living your life freely and fully?

Addiction is crippling. It forms out of a simple habit and transforms into an ugly master that feels impossible to get away from. It is the weight on your shoulders that coaxes you to smoke another cigarette, take another shot, or spend more money at the ‘special sale’ you can’t afford. There is more to life than living by your habit. Addiction is possible to beat and there are more individual success stories than we could list. All it takes is the start of one simple change.

The truth is that counseling really is for everyone, and everyone can benefit from it. No matter how big your issues are, no matter how small, your life is important. Choose to change your life by getting the help you deserve. It’s time to rid yourself of addictions chains and be free to live life to the fullest and with unlimited potential. Peachtree City Counseling is ready to take the next step with you. You don’t have to do this alone.

Call Peachtree City Counseling and get ready to live a different life. Get ready to start becoming the best version of yourself with the help of a counselor or psychologist.

Teressa is an awesome at what she does

★★★★★

Theresa is one of the most caring, empathetic, good listener, compassionate, and nonjudgmental to name a few. She is over all a wonderful person and to have as an counselor. I have seen her work and the many lives she has changed for better. I recommend Teressa highly for sessions.

Teressa Mathurin

Teressa Mathurin is awesome! She knows how to get to the core of the matter. She listens, validates, challenges, and motivates. She is everything that you want in a clinician.

Naomi

I have known Naomi for over 10 years. I admire her strength and determination. She is very passionate about helping others. I would definitely recommend her to my friends and family.

Naomi Haynes

Stephanie Mezei

I have known Stephanie for over six years and worked side by side with her in a mental health center for part of that time. What comes across first and foremost is her caring and concern for her clients and her determination to see that their needs are met. She brings to her work a wide range of experience and training along with confidence that is reassuring and a comfort to those in distress. She can deal calmly with the most severe issues as well as with problems of daily living. In the time that I've known her, she has been licensed in three different states to practice in a variety of settings. If you come to her in a time of need, in a time of emotional upheaval or difficult questions, I don't think you will find a more competent or more caring therapist.

A game changer for me!!

Without going on an on, but I may - - I feel that Stacey Franklin, my counselor, is literally the best kept secret (that I will not keep a secret) if you haven't met her - and if you have not been to Thriveworks yet, than that is the second best kept secret. Thriveworks is the most incredible counseling place that I have ever been to - when you walk in - it offers such a tranquil and serene atmosphere, where every counselor greets you with a very welcoming spirit. I have been to multiple counselors throughout my life, in multiple states, and it is without hesitation that this environment is incredible. When you call to schedule an appointment to meet with a counselor, they work really hard to try and match you with a counselor that best fits the struggles that you are going through - but at any point during your counseling sessions, if you feel that the match may not be perfect - they want you to be honest so that they can try and fix it, or match you with someone that may be a better fit for you within the practice or refer you to someone they know outside of the practice. That is what an amazing practice and counselor should do! Stacey is by far the BEST counselor I have every worked with. She is genuine, honest, skilled, raw, empathetic, compassionate, pneumatic, accepting, flexible, communicable, my safe place, and so VERY kind. Her aura is something I have never seen before and although I am on a life journey of discovery and acceptance, I am so thankful for her to be on this journey with me because I do not know what I would have done with out her. If you are reading this review and are wondering if this is the place for you - I challenge you to give it a shot - it was a life changer for me.

I highly recommend Maria!

I’m grateful for Maria who has helped me through a really difficult time in my life. She is personable, very skilled and caring therapist . I can definitely be myself when I talk to her. I highly recommend Maria to anyone who is in crisis. Thank you!

Wonderful Counselor

Marissa Morris has helped me out so much. She is very kind, smart, and understanding. It's so easy to talk to her. I feel as if she has always given me great advice and guidance.

Best Therapist

Marissa has been very instrumental with helping me deal with my anxiety. If there is anyone out there who is suffering, please seek help. Better yet, contact Marissa and she will help you retrain your thought process. I'm happy that I took this step in my healing process.

Fantastic service

Marissa Morris is fantastic. Highly recommend her. I feel very comfortable during my sessions, almost like I’m chatting with a long time friend who happens to be a great listener that gives really good advice.

First visit

I enjoyed my visit, though nervous at first, felt comfortable by the time I left. Look forward to our next session

Feeling Thankful

I’m extremely grateful and blessed that my therapist Roselande Domond. She has been very helpful to me as I try and understand my so called life. She has been able to be there for me as I organize and sort through the situations that has occurred throughout my life and I don’t know where I would be emotionally and mentally if it wasn’t for her help and guidance. I just wanted to say Thank you 🙏🏽

Great Service

The counseling I received at Thriveworks with Mrs. Marissa Morris really helped me put my life back in perspective. She is absolutely awesome and compassionate. Thank you!

Highly recommend Thriveworks

I have been so pleased with Marissa’s guidance and support during a challenging time. I leave my sessions feeling encouraged and equipped with practical strategies that I can apply in my life. If you are looking to feel empowered, I highly recommend making an appointment with Marissa.

Great Therapy

I’ve never considered counseling before but when life brought me some challenges I could not deal with alone I knew I needed help. Pamela was just what I needed. She made my first experience of counseling amazing.

What a relief

I've been working with Gem and have enjoyed every minute of it. With her much needed tough love approach and dose of reality she challenges me to take a step back and view situations in a new light. It's wonderful knowing I can talk openly with her and I leave each session with a call I didn't have before.

They’re great!

I have Algem and have only been seeing her for a few short weeks, but I already feel myself working towards a happier healthier place

Algem Hopkins

I love Algem! I hope I can see her again soon.

Excellent Professional Counselor

Pamela Pinckney exemplifies professionalism and continually forms excellent rapport with every client she comes in contact with. As a colleague I have witnessed her demonstrate empathy and warmth along with reflection and accountability when necessary. Great professional counselor!

Therapy that doesn’t feel like therapy.

At first, I was very apprehensive about therapy, but after my session with Mrs. Pinckney I feel more confident about it. She is so easy to talk to and relatable. I felt that she was genuinely understanding and invested in the process of healing. It was like talking to a friend. Like I said previously, at first I didn't even want to go, but after talking with her for an hour, I didn't want my session to end. I'm actually looking forward to our next visit.

We Just LOVE Gem

I have been taking my daughter to see Gem for right at a year now, and I couldn't be more happy. Finding the "right" person for your child is not always easy, but from day one Gem was able to develop a rapport with my daughter, and build a trusting and safe relationship with her. My daughter looks forward to her sessions, and actually has asked if she could go every day! We've seen much progress from our daughter and are so thankful we found Gem.

Algem is Great!

Thriveworks has a very professional, relaxing environment. The aromatherapy, the fountain, the entertainment in the waiting room. Everyone is helpful. I am greeted and it is made sure that I am seen promptly. At the same time, my appointment does not seem rushed. I feel that Algem is genuinely concerned about my health and well-being. We have good, fun, authentic conversation in session and she has made herself available to me anytime. Algem texts me and checks on me, and remembers upcoming things I may be encountering. In addition, she has let me know that sessions can be made affordable if I need to come in during this interim time when I have no insurance.

Wonderful choice for children and families

Thriveworks has provided a wonderful support system for my 8 year old son. Ms. Gem is amazing, caring and has a bubbly personality. You can't help but smile when your in the room with her. My son was in need of a safe and happy place to discuss his feelings and help with cognitive developement skills, Thriveworks has provided that for him. He continues to improve with the support staff they have in place. Ms. Gem has gone above and beyond to help our family with anything we need. We could not be happier.

Best Place

Thriveworks In general is an amazing facility. It's peaceful and welcoming. Algem Is therapist and she's the best one I've ever had. She has a joyful spirit, and I ALWAYS leave with a smile on my face. I don't think I've ever been so excited to go to therapy before. They're great!

Amazing Service and Environment!

Couldn’t have asked for more!

Marissa was a godsend!

Wonderful experience and very helpful

I started going to Throveworks for help with anxiety and guidance on some difficult life decisions. I had nothing but the best experience working with Marissa on my issues. She was extremely professional, yet so easy to talk to. At times it really felt like I was just talking to one of my girlfriends rather than attending a session. She helped me talk through differentenarios to help me with my decision making and gave me some great ideas for managing my anxiety. I highly reccommend and Marissa specifically if anyone is thinking of seeking counseling or help on any important issues.

Good Energy and Growth

Stacy is amazing!!! I am growing and moving in the right direction in my life and I have her to thank for that.

Insightful and Hopeful

Stacey has been a true blessing. Sessions with Stacey are relaxing, insightful, and leaves me feeling hopeful for tomorrow. I recommend the skillful expertise if Stacey Franklin

More than just counseling

This place offers more than just counseling...they offer a sense of peace and the tools to make changes in life.

Therapy

Very helpful and supportive Easy to reach when needed. Excellent experience with Thriveworks.

Sense of peace

IT HELPS! The stigmatism of my heritage (African American) that therapy is something we donâ€™t do is so obsolete. I am both thankful and extremely grateful that I am able to experience a level of counseling that has enlighten me to think and react to things in a positive way that fosters growth. The coaching and therapy sessions Iâ€™ve experience through Stacy and her counselors at Thriveworks-Peachtree City has provided me with reassurance towards handling any stressors regarding my job and family life. So many times we get caught up with taking care of others that we donâ€™t take care of ourselves. Honestly, how are we to take care of our loved ones and be that good friend if we are not mentally prepared to do so. Letâ€™s face it, life can be all consuming. The day in/day out rituals can be a lot to bear and we face many challenges. Iâ€™m so happy I wasnâ€™t reluctant to make use of their services/solutions to my emotional hurdles. Stacy, Algem and Jill have been fantastic! Itâ€™s like speaking with your best friend or family member, but they donâ€™t judge you. Thanks so much and I look forward to continued growth through Thriveworks-Peachtree City!

Warm and Inviting

I really enjoyed Algem. She is inviting and has a warm spirit..I have learned so much for me and never makes me feel that anything I say is unwarranted.

Experience

Having a counselor that is positive, patient and focused is a blessing. Algem is beyond fantastic and always goes above and beyond for her clients.

Non-Responsive!

★☆☆☆☆

Good luck trying to get an appointment with these people. I filled out the online form... no response. So I called the office and left a voicemail. It's now the next day and I still have not heard back, so I started an Online Chat... after being on hold for 40 minutes, I gave up. Obviously they are too busy to schedule appointments; I will be trying a different provider.
