Desirea Russell works from the belief that everyone has aspects of themselves they want to improve, and she welcomes people who choose her to support that process. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia and a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor, and she brings seven years of experience in the mental health field.
Her clinical practice focuses on individual and family counseling, addiction, trauma, vocational counseling, depression, and anxiety. She also treats personality and mood disorders, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and co-occurring disorders, and she has extensive experience in career counseling. Desirea enjoys working with adolescents, teens, and adults.
Desirea uses cognitive behavioral techniques and solution-focused brief therapy as central elements of her work, and she is experienced with several other therapeutic modalities. She is committed to providing quality psychotherapy for people who are ready to reinvest in themselves and make meaningful changes.
Many people ask whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or managing life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A major benefit is flexibility - clients can connect in the way that suits them best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. This adaptability makes it easier to fit care into busy schedules.
Sessions are provided by licensed professionals and by therapists who are trained to work remotely. If a different therapeutic fit is needed, clients can switch therapists at any time.
