Getting to know Nakeya Gore

I offer online counseling to help adults recover from childhood wounds. These issues can present as depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and interpersonal challenges. I approach counseling as an opportunity to understand your story and help you develop a path to healing. It's human nature to want healthy relationships, meaningful work, and activities you enjoy to have a good quality of life. If you're experiencing ineffective communication skills, career dissatisfaction, parenting challenges, family or relationship stress, or feelings of overwhelm, I would be glad to help you improve these areas. I utilize the following treatment models depending on each individual's needs: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Brief Therapy, and Mindfulness Interventions. I studied psychology at the University of Georgia, earning a Bachelor's degree in 1998. Later, I obtained a Master of Social Work from Valdosta State University in 2011 and became fully licensed in 2015. I absolutely understand that life can throw you curveballs. My desire to help others improve their quality of life has led to a career spanning twenty years.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

I’m truly grateful for the support I receive from my therapist. Her authenticity and intelligence create a space where I feel empowered and understood. She encourages open dialogue and genuinely listens, which has been incredibly freeing and therapeutic for me. Her approach fosters a deep sense of trust and respect, making each session both insightful and affirming.
I've seen so many counselors and psychologists and psychiatrists, etc over my lifetime. This lovely lady really gets and understands me. That's key. I feel like I've found someone whom I trust and REALLY think her authenticity is what keeps me coming back. I know this is anonymous but this is Lori Mac. LOL :)
Ms. Nakeya has been amazing. She’s been patient, direct, uplifting and very informative when speaking with me. Sometimes the hour doesn’t feel long enough because it’s like talking to your wise, down to earth aunt who cares for you and you trust to take all of your problems to. And instead of judging you, she uplifts you, helps you to find solutions that are both practical and specific for you.
I appreciate the therapy I’m receiving from Nakeya. She’s help me build confidence by encouraging me to “do the hard things” and I’m learning a lot about myself in the process.
I love Nakeya! She speaks truth with grace and care for my well-being. She allows me to talk through and figure things out so I can hear myself say my truth, but she also challenges me to reframe or let go of behavior that isn't serving me or aligning with my own life goals. It has been a journey, but I'm so grateful for her.
I have been working with Nakeya for the past 2 years and I have noticed the growth in myself from when we first started. She is patient, understanding, open-minded, empowering and different from other therapist experiences. I feel heard during our sessions and motivated to want to do better. I recommend her to everyone I know that asks me for a referral.
You are the best thing that has happened to me. I’ve followed you all over the map because you take so much time, effort, and care with every appointment. You know when to push and when to pull back. You know when to say “this is not the best way to handle this moment” and when to praise progress. You give realistic action items and homework, without it being overwhelming or scary. It’s so clear how much you care about your clients and their wellbeing. I appreciate you so, so much! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas with your family. And please know how grateful I am to have you as my guide through this crazy rollercoaster of life. You are a Godsend and a rockstar!
Nakeya’s approach and technique provides healing and skill sets to accompany the healthier version of you. She is patient and she helps you to become patient with yourself. Healing is difficult but her warmth and compassion makes it worth the journey. She doesn’t give up, and that makes me feel that I’m not in this alone. She is a comfort in a not so comfortable process. I am grateful to have found a therapist match!
Nakeya has been a crucial source of support for me to make meaningful changes in my life, create healthy boundaries, move towards greater love and acceptance of myself, and love others despite their shortcomings. I’m thankful for her expertise and skills that have made a big difference for me.
