OUR CLINICIANS
Alissa Darnell, LPC, EMDR Trained
As a therapist, I have had the opportunity to provide support and encouragement to people as they face life challenges, and I have assisted them in their journeys toward growth and wellness. My approach is warm, compassionate, and genuine, and my focus is holistic, allowing all aspects of your wellness to be addressed. It is important to me to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment so you feel comfortable while working through your areas of concern. Through counseling and education, my passion is to empower you to be the best version of yourself.
I foundationally work from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) perspectives, and am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), which is a specialized training addressing trauma. As we work together, I may utilize other techniques to meet your unique needs. My specialties include trauma (PTSD), grief, depression, anxiety, personality disorders, emotional distress, and relationship issues. I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds, so I am sensitive to your value and belief systems when helping you accomplish your goals. A person's transition to wellness through personal growth is remarkable to observe, and it happens every day.
I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and help you realize your hopes and dreams!
Holly Turton, M.Ed., APC, NCC
Working with families, students, & individuals over the years has taught me that taking the first step in seeking help & guidance can be very rewarding. I hope to be a source of support in this endeavor. I will be with you providing guidance as you learn to navigate life & all that it may hold. As a professional high school counselor, I have experience working with countless students encountering a variety of challenges. Working with students sparked my desire to invest in both children & adults’ lives on a deeper & more consistent level. Today, I work at the Counseling For Growth & Wellness practice and as a high school counselor.
I have experience in counseling individuals with anxiety & depression. It has been my joy to to assist them as they develop coping skills that work for their needs. I enjoy working with families to improve cohesion. During these sessions, I have taught behavioral skills to the children & helped the parents explore techniques that work best for their family.
I operate from both a CBT and solution-focused perspective. I have found that these frameworks work wonderfully together to help identify areas in your life that are causing tension and practical ways of realizing your true self. Warmth and open-mindedness will always be at the forefront of my sessions. I would love to help you on your journey to wellness.
Holly Floyd, LMFT, EMDR Trained
After receiving invaluable warmth & empathy during my own experience of therapy I felt obliged to give back to others the same compassion. To assist clients struggling with issues from depression & anxiety to PTSD & Bipolar Disorder I combine an eclectic and collaborative approach rooted in attachment theory with the goal of shifting a client’s experience from survival to one of well-being. I have focused my training to serve survivors of trauma. I use my certification as a TC-Trauma Sensitive Yoga Facilitator & training in EMDR therapy to help clients process the difficult emotions that follow surviving traumatic experiences. In addition to adults, I provide adolescents & children services drawing upon the experience I gained during the 3 years that I served as the counselor for Greene County Georgia's school district. When not cultivating my therapy practice I can be found playing with my dog Walter, enjoying art & music, practicing yoga, loving horses, gardening, and laughing.
