Welcome to Michael & Michael Counseling & Consulting, LLC , we are so excited you found us! We are a comprehensive Group Practice located in the Brookhaven area of Atlanta, GA. We started this group practice to help heal people that are hurting. It is our profession, but it is also our ministry. It truly is our “pleasure to walk alongside of you during your journey of healing!”
Not unlike many within this field, my own experiences with mental health influenced my decision to become a therapist. Through my own struggles in my young life, I found a passion for hearing other people’s experiences and empowering others to identify and utilize their strengths in moments of hardship. A couple of areas I specialize in navigating are: Ideas of perfectionism Developing self-compassion Exploring one’s cultural identity Coping with and understanding feeling “not good enough" Overcoming the stress of living up to expectations (cultural, intrapersonal, societal, parental) Setting boundaries Feeling torn between two or more cultures Feelings of shame, worry, or guilt I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist and I have a particular skill in working with people of color, first and second-generation immigrants, and folks new to therapy. Additionally, I deeply understand, honor, and respect the South Asian and Middle Eastern religions and cultures.
I believe in the inner strength that everyone possesses; I help my clients to overcome life’s challenges in order to realize their full potential. Utilizing immediacy and humor, I build strong and open therapeutic relationships. I work with clients of all ages, with an integrative approach to therapy. I am currently in training to become a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist. I also have training in Personality Disorder Therapy, and Career Counseling.
I work with young women who are tired of feeling overwhelmed with recent changes in their life and want to regain control, so they are looking for a therapist who can understand their unique challenges and be "real" with them. You want to feel connected to yourself and your loved ones, but deep down are struggling to juggle the different aspects of your life or cope with challenging experiences that have occurred recently. Maybe you have trouble recognizing who you are today, feel crippled by anxiety most of the day or can't quite communicate your needs. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to find the confidence in your decision making and connect with your environment better. Most of all, you’re ready to find joy in the day-to-day again. You’re ready for a new “normal,” and I can help you get there. As an experienced life transition and trauma therapist, I believe that every woman can find freedom from pressures that are often placed on us. My training in specific treatment modalities gives me the expertise you need to reconnect with yourself. You don’t have to continue feeling alone. Call me today for a free 15-min consultation, I can't wait to hear from you.
In our sessions, I'm learning about you and working as a guide to help you to make connections between your unique experiences and make sense of what you're experiencing. I use a Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) modality, in which we focus on patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and how they impact each other. I also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills to help clients feel more in control of their emotions and their lives in general. Each session is tailored to the individual, as every person has different needs. We will work together to figure out what is most important to you and the best way for you to create the life you want.
As a woman who has gone through graduate school and post-graduate training, I can completely relate to the stress and challenges many of you are likely facing! I hope this brief info can give you a better idea of who I am and how I may be able to help you. I’m a Board-Certified Clinical Psychologist conveniently located in the Virginia highlands/Morningside area of Atlanta. I graduated with my PhD from the University of Georgia and completed both my internship and fellowship with the Emory University School of Medicine. I have extensive experience working with young adults of diverse backgrounds, in particular young professional women. I work with a wide range of presenting issues including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, cultural concerns, career/academic stress, etc. In addition to psychotherapy, our practice specializes in conducting psychological and psycho-educational evaluations for children, adolescents and young adults. Feel free to reach out and I’d be happy to chat with you further about whether we may be a good therapeutic fit.

Hello and welcome! Life can feel like a lot sometimes. You might be feeling overwhelmed by academic pressure, anxiety or depression, questioning your path, navigating complicated relationships, or trying to hold it all together while everyone else seems to be thriving. College and student life can bring growth and independence, but also burnout, impostor syndrome, loneliness, and identity questions. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I specialize in working with students experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, and family or relationship challenges. Many of the clients I work with are untangling complex family dynamics, healing from past experiences, or learning how to set boundaries while honoring their cultural or personal values. I also support neurodiverse clients, including those with ADHD and executive functioning challenges, and understand the stress that can come from masking or feeling misunderstood in academic spaces. My approach blends cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic therapy, meaning we’ll look at both present patterns and deeper roots. Together, we’ll build insight, strengthen coping skills, and help you develop a more supportive and realistic inner voice. Therapy with me is collaborative — we’ll reflect, challenge patterns, and even laugh when it fits. I am committed to providing affirming, culturally responsive care for diverse clients, including BIPOC, neurodiverse, and LGBTQ+ individuals. If you’re exploring identity, belonging, or navigating systems that weren’t built with you in mind, that work is welcome here. I aim to create a space where you can show up as you are — warm, supportive, and real (not drive-thru mental health care). I am currently an Associate Professional Counselor (APC), working toward full licensure under the guidance of Lauren Vaughan-D'Angelo, LPC, CPCS. I provide virtual therapy for clients across Georgia, with evening and weekend availability. My standard rate is $125, and I accept select insurance plans as well as self-pay. I offer a limited number of sliding scale spots to help keep therapy accessible and within reach. If you’re wondering whether we’re a good fit, I offer a free 15-minute phone “vibe check.”
