Not sure how to identify what’s toxic and what isn’t?
When you feel overwhelmed, sometimes your emotional response is more distressing than the situation itself. Start by clearly defining the problem and giving yourself space to self-soothe. Using affirmations, radical acceptance, or assertiveness can help you address the issue in a healthy way.
Life is busy, especially during this time of year. Your mental health doesn’t need to take a backseat!
Whether you're juggling work, family, or holiday chaos, our Telehealth therapy sessions are here to meet you where you are—literally. From the comfort of home, Georgia and South Carolina residents can connect with one of our licensed therapists.

Depression can show up in ways we don’t always recognize and may be unrecognizable in those around us. Screening is a powerful first step toward clarity, support, and healing.
October is Depression Awareness Month and National Depression and Mental Health Screening Month. Whether you’re feeling off or simply curious about your emotional well-being, this month is a reminder: it’s okay to ask questions, it’s okay to seek help, and it’s okay to prioritize yourself.
Ready to take that step? Help is available! Visit our website to connect with one of our licensed therapists today.
The term “toxic” is powerful, yet it’s often misused to describe everyday stress or discomfort. For women of color specifically, this distinction matters. Microaggressions and systemic challenges are real. However, labeling every stressor as toxic can lead to viewing pain as personal failure.
Lately, it seems like toxicity is everywhere. Or are we using “toxic” too loosely?
From personal to professional to societal stress, the word toxic has become a catch-all for discomfort. What happens when we label even the simplest challenges as intolerable? Are we protecting ourselves, or avoiding growth?
Our “Everything’s Toxic” blog offers a fresh perspective if you need help determining whether something is truly toxic or simply uncomfortable.

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we are honoring the strength of survivors and reflecting on the systems that help them receive much-needed support.
Healing from abuse is not linear, and safety is not always simple. Showing up for people who have or are experiencing abuse means offering empathy, resources, and space to be heard.
Whether you’re a survivor, a supporter, or someone still finding the words, you are not alone. Every step you take toward healing is a powerful act of hope for your future.
For domestic violence support, you can:
- visit https://www.thehotline.org/ (live chat available)
- call 1.800.799.SAFE (7233)
- text “START” to 88788

Even when therapy is over, it’s never really over. The work continues outside of your therapist’s office. Keep checking in with your mental state, continue to build your support system, and remember that going back does not mean you’ve failed. As your life evolves, so will your needs.
Life after therapy looks different for everyone. Be sure you're doing what works best for you.

As the holidays begin to roll in, we understand that your scheduling may be busier than usual. Our virtual appointments allow you to prioritize your mental health while staying on top of your daily demands.
Whether you’re considering ending your regular therapy sessions, or if you’ve already ended them, sometimes it’s hard to know what comes next. We’ve honed in on 7 key points to consider when living life after therapy.

There is still time to sign up for our Assertiveness Group and build self-assurance in your communication. Repeatedly having your needs unmet can lead to feeling overlooked, dissatisfied, and worthless. This can also lead to resentment for others, as well as yourself, if left unchecked.
Fortunately, assertiveness is a skill which means there are ways to learn how to improve it! We communicate one way or another every day of our lives. Wouldn’t you like to finally be heard?
Life after therapy is more than just focusing on utilizing your tools and deciding what to do next. Acknowledging and celebrating your accomplishments so far can help keep you on track and motivated.
Is there something you’re especially proud of yourself for? Keep it in mind, write it down, use it as a mantra—whatever works for you!

We are a group of therapists that provides individual, family, and couples counseling. We treat anxiety, depression, prenatal and postpartum issues, lack of assertiveness, and emotional eating. We accept Aetna, Ambetter, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, and Humana.
To help transform the lives of thousands one person, couple, or group at a time so that they may fulfill their purpose and positively impact the world.
To provide the most clinically effective treatment to individuals, couples, families and groups and help them acknowledge, create, and live their best life. Our therapeutic approach is evidenced-based, goal-directed, and focuses on the client’s strengths.
Each therapist at Collier Counseling, LLC brings a specialized set of skills and a diverse background. They have extensive training and a specific population they work with. Every therapist has a preference regarding which treatment modality they use and this largely depends on the needs of the client. Our treatment is evidenced-based, holistic, and results-driven.
We understand our clients are dealing with significant discomfort and need the discomfort to go away so that they can grow into the best version of themselves. We focus on the strengths of the client and use these strengths to achieve the change our clients are wanting in their lives. We do a thorough assessment of each client so that we can gather relevant history and current symptoms of the problem. This assessment occurs during the first and second session. Progress is consistently measured during the course of treatment, after all, progress is the goal. Therefore, goals for treatment are developed by the third session. The goals are statements made by the client expressing what they want to accomplish. They are measurable and specific so that we are clear as to what we are trying to achieve and create a blueprint to do so.
After the assessment is completed and the goals are developed, it’s time to get to work. Sessions will involve identifying and talking through strong feelings and hurt, developing coping skills for the discomfort in your life, practicing mindfulness and stress reduction techniques, re-framing unhealthy thought patterns, and gaining acceptance of yourself and your new normal, as your life will transform during your therapeutic experience at Collier Counseling, LLC.
