Getting to know Malissa Collins

Hi there, I'm Malissa! I am Dr. Malissa Collins, a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Georgia specializing in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. I hold a Ph.D. in Marriage and Family Therapy and earned my MEd from Troy University. My approach My approach is warm and compassionate. I focus on meeting clients where they are and teaching them ways to successfully navigate life to meet their goals. My focus I have experience working with individuals from various backgrounds, families, and couples. My training allows me to support diverse clients with empathy and understanding. My communication style Clients appreciate my warmth and nonjudgmental style, which helps them feel relaxed and confident throughout the therapeutic process. My journey to therapy I knew in high school that I wanted a career in psychology because my friends told me I had a natural “knack” for listening and helping. They would say, “You're easy to talk to.” My drive comes from living my purpose-I find value in helping others reach happiness. My goals for you Because I primarily use CBT strategies to help clients reach their therapy goals, the focus begins with cognitive restructuring-raising awareness of potential faulty core beliefs about self and the world. My first session with you My first sessions include getting to know you as a partner in this therapeutic relationship. I will ask questions to learn as much about you as possible, with the goal of building trust between us.
