Sheila Kendrick, LPC — Therapist in Georgia

Hi there, I'm Sheila!

I provide counseling to adults experiencing anxiety, depression, and trauma. I specialize in working with those who have experienced traumatic events, including military veterans struggling with PTSD symptoms.

My focus

I work with adults dealing with anxiety, depression, and PTSD, including obsessive-compulsive behaviors, dissociative behaviors, panic disorders, and agoraphobia.

My approach

My approach matches your needs, with EMDR as my primary model. I guide you in accessing memories of anxiety, depression, and traumatic events in specific ways that help you reprocess what you remember and repair the mental injury from those memories.

My communication style

My communication style is calm, nonjudgmental, empathetic, and personable. Listening is central to how I work. I want you to feel heard and validated as you entrust me with your personal stories and struggles.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always had a heart of compassion for people in their suffering and struggles. I believe that helping individuals become better versions of themselves is one of the greatest gifts one can offer.

My goals for you

I am honored when you select me to be part of your healing journey. My goal is to work with you to determine your desired outcomes. We will build trust, establish rapport, set goals, meet regularly, and track progress together.

Our first session

In our first session, we will review the Informed Consent and I will conduct an intake interview to gather background information. I will describe how future sessions might look, keeping in mind that each session will be meaningful but may look different. The most important thing is building a connection that makes subsequent sessions productive.
