Are you struggling with feeling overwhelmed? Feel like you have too much to do and you are too exhausted to manage it all? I am passionate about helping people connect to their best self! I specialize in working with clients who want to change and yet feel held back by sadness or constant worry. I believe you know yourself better than anyone else- and yet sometimes we get off track. It is a honor and a privilege to work with people working to overcome their challenges.
I have extensive training in working with adults struggling with self-doubt, anxiety, and depression. I work with my clients as partners in healing; I want to acknowledge your unique struggles. I focus on experiential healing modalities, including journaling, mindfulness, movement, and art.

I graduated in 2018 with a Masters in Arts in clinical/mental heath counseling from Regent University. I received my bachelors in psychology from Georgia Southern University in 2013.  I believe so many of the things we struggle with are fueled by the thoughts we believe about ourself and the things around us. Having a space to speak about those things and a counselor-client relationship that feels safe enough to explore your struggles, experiences, and beliefs is essential to helping people find healthy ways to move through to healthier ways of thinking and being. I am passionate about helping people improve their self worth and confidence. I also offer Christian-based counseling to clients who wish to integrate their faith in their sessions. ​

There are times in life when stressors can become overwhelming, and a need for an outside perspective comes. I have experience working with clients with a variety of concerns such as depression, anxiety, trauma, suicidal ideations, and relationship issues. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their needs and their ultimate goals. Together, we can identify strategies and solutions to cope and ultimately move into a more positive space.

I enjoy working with people of all ages, using both talk and play therapy techniques. I am able to work with both individuals, couples, and family. I have training in play therapy and Trauma Focused CBT. I believe that through building a strong therapeutic relationship, I can assist my clients in reaching their goals.

Hi! My name is Tyndal, and I am a Nationally Certified Counselor and Licensed Associate Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. I received my Bachelor’s in Psychology from Georgia Tech (Go Jackets!) in 2019 and my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA in 2023. The relationship between counselor and client is something I do not take lightly. I know I am asking a lot for you to come trust me with what you’re going through, and I promise to meet you where you are with kindness, compassion, and a commitment to your
growth. I work from a Narrative and Feminist lens, focusing on how you are not your problems and how you can rewrite your story for yourself to move forward, as well as challenging systems in place that may be holding you back from living your most authentic life. I am a big fan of identifying, naming, and feeling your feelings. I also integrate some of the more tangible skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, which may help you gain some sense of control during stressful times in your life. Finally, I would be remiss to not include that I am a HUGE proponent of humor in therapy and as a coping skill. We will find humor when you need it, while continuing to reserve space to feel your feelings, whatever they may be. I have experience working with a wide variety of diagnoses such as: anxiety, depression, substance use/abuse, trauma, grief, and body image issues. If you think we might work well together, I would be honored to meet with you. Please reach out to the office or my email directly, and we will get going!

Hi there. Life can be rough, filled with stress, loss, unplanned challenges, and pain. This can feel overwhelming. In times like these it can be useful to have someone help you clarify what you want and the direction you want to go. Since graduating from Georgia Southern’s counselor education program and being employed as a school counselor, I have worked with clients of all ages to increase awareness and understanding of their experiences. I enjoy helping clients recognize and build on skills and learn new ways to handle past and present stress so they can explore who they want to be. My integrated counseling approach is trauma-informed, multicultural, strengths- and interest-based, and whole-person focused. The therapeutic relationship is foundational to my work, as I incorporate mindfulness, the expressive arts, experiential approaches, somatic practices, and psychoeducation. More than anything, I believe you know, at your deepest level, what you need in order to experience greater well-being as you navigate life’s twists and turns. I look forward to going on the journey with you.
