Therapy & Counseling
Individual therapy in a safe, supportive space — alongside medication if you need it, on its own if you don’t.
Therapy that meets you where you are
Therapy at The Psychiatric Center is for adults working through anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, ADHD, grief, or long-running patterns that are getting in the way. You don’t need a diagnosis to benefit — just a desire to understand yourself better or cope more effectively with what life is throwing at you.
Our licensed therapists provide individual therapy, skills-based support for emotional regulation and ADHD, trauma-informed care for PTSD and complex trauma, and depth-oriented work for attachment, identity, and long-term patterns. We’ll work with you to find a clinician whose style matches your goals.
Therapy can stand alone or run alongside medication management. Many patients do both — with their therapist and prescriber coordinating closely so the work moves in the same direction.
What therapy looks like here
Our clinicians draw from a range of evidence-based approaches and tailor the work to fit you. A few of the modalities you might encounter:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
A structured, present-focused approach that targets the thoughts and behaviors keeping symptoms in place. Effective for anxiety, depression, OCD, and many other conditions.
Psychodynamic and depth-oriented therapy
For patterns that keep showing up — in relationships, work, self-image — we explore the deeper roots, often in early experiences and attachment, so the patterns become workable rather than automatic.
Trauma-informed care
When trauma is part of the picture, we move at your pace, prioritize safety and stabilization first, and use evidence-based methods like CBT for trauma when you’re ready.
Mindfulness-based and relational models
Approaches that build awareness of present-moment experience and use the therapy relationship itself as a space to practice new ways of being.
Motivational Interviewing (MI)
A collaborative style especially useful when you’re feeling ambivalent about change — we work with the parts of you that want change and the parts that don’t.

How therapy works at TPC
01
Initial evaluation
We start with a thorough intake to understand your needs, history, and what you’re hoping to work on. This helps us recommend the right therapist and approach.
02
Therapist match
We match you with a clinician based on clinical fit and availability. If the match isn’t right, we re-match — no awkwardness.
03
Regular sessions
Most patients start with weekly or biweekly sessions, in person or via secure telehealth. Frequency adjusts as your needs change.
04
Integrated care
When useful, your therapist coordinates with your medication provider, primary care doctor, or other specialists so everyone’s working in the same direction.
Telehealth, in-person, or both
Therapy is available via secure HIPAA-compliant video sessions if you prefer to meet from home, or in person at our Macon office. Many patients alternate based on what fits the week.
Insurance & payment
We accept most major insurances and we’re in-network with the Emory Healthcare Network. When you call to schedule, our front desk will verify your specific benefits.
