Services We Offer

Therapy For WomenAt Towler Counseling, we recognize that women can face unique mental health struggles. We are a women therapist practice and we understand the need for therapists who understand women. Are you a new mom? Or a mom who feels alone or feels like she is drowning? If you are feeling lost, alone or struggling with life choices it is time to seek help. We are passionate about working with women facing these issues and empowering them to process and overcome their struggles. We are here to let you know that you are not alone. In the past few years, many women are now vocal about their mental health struggles. With all of the recent events, women need women therapists who understand and can align with what they are going through. Do not think you are alone.
Trauma TherapyDo you feel you can never escape the past or the traumas you have been carrying? Whatever it is that you’re experiencing, you’re beginning to notice this impact in every facet of your life, and this can be unresolved trauma. There can be a lot of fear associated with traumas, and it can be tricky to admit them. Trauma does not have to be. Trauma once treated, you can find yourself again. Trauma therapy can help you process your experience and develop coping skills to help you move forward. With multiple counselors trained in trauma therapy, Towler Counseling can help you cope with traumatic events and move on. The next step can be difficult, but we provide a supportive and empathic environment.
Couples Counseling Are you struggling to communicate with your spouse? Do you find difficulties getting on the same page? Then couples counseling is for you. Couples counseling is a form of therapy in which both partners come in (or see a therapist virtually) to work through challenges, understand their relationship better, and develop healthier ways of relating to one another. It does not have to be dramatic or the end of the relationship, but can address many different relationship issues. Counseling can benefit a relationship at any stage. Couples can choose to come in before a big, life-changing event like marriage, moving in together, having children, etc. Many believe that couples counseling is only needed when there are issues, but that is not true. It can greatly help a relationship to seek counseling before problems get out of control. Our therapists use specific therapeutic techniques and interventions to support each couple's goals.

Postpartum depression/anxiety therapy
Our therapists want you to know you are not alone. We want you to know that we are here to help you through this journey of motherhood. Our therapists are trained in using cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help new mothers struggling with postpartum depression and anxiety. While most women experience intense emotions or depression (often referred to as “baby blues”) for about 1-3 weeks after delivery, some women experience more persistent and severe feelings of depression. This is baby blues and theses feelings will begin to go away. What if these elevated emotions persist for a longer period of time? In that case, you are probably experiencing postpartum depression, which typically emerges over the first 2-3 months after childbirth but may occur at any point up to 18 months after delivery.
Postpartum depression or anxiety is not a character flaw or weakness. Sometimes it's simply a birth complication. Giving births can be a trauma, which unleashes emotions such as feelings of sadness and anxiety. If you have postpartum depression, prompt treatment can help you manage your symptoms and help you bond with your baby. Talking to a licensed counselor can give you the tools to help you through this period. Postpartum depression or anxiety can be extremely challenging, and our therapists understand this.
Here are signs to look for: Depressed mood or severe mood swings, Crying too much Difficulty bonding with your baby, Withdrawing from family and friends, Loss of appetite or eating much more than usual Inability to sleep, called insomnia, or sleeping too much, Overwhelming tiredness or loss of energy, Less interest and pleasure in activities you used to enjoy, Intense irritability and anger, Fear that you're not a good mother, Hopelessness Feelings of worthlessness, shame, guilt or inadequacy, Reduced ability to think clearly, concentrate or make decisions, Restlessness, Severe anxiety and panic attacks, Thoughts of harming yourself or your baby, Recurring thoughts of death or suicide.
There are some therapists on our team who have experienced postpartum and have the ability to relate to you. In individual counseling, we will being to explore the possible barriers keeping you from developing effective coping mechanisms to be a great mom. By digging deep and peeling back the layers of your emotions, we will be able to determine where you developed beneficial coping strategies and where your strategies may have become maladaptive along the way. While we will primarily focus on your current worries and experiences, understanding how you were parented can shed valuable insight into the areas where you’re experiencing obstacles as a mother. As a therapist, we work with you on disputing misconceptions we are given in social media or in our upbringing. Our therapists help moms in Atlanta and Sandy Springs. We offer online or face-to-face. Children and babies are welcome if you come in person.
