Helping You Navigate Life’s Hardest Moments with Compassion and Clarity
Are you facing a major life change, grieving a deep loss, or struggling with anxiety that just won’t let up? You don’t have to figure it out on your own. As a Georgia therapist, I help individuals and couples move through emotional pain and uncertainty with support, insight, and warmth.
I specialize in working with people experiencing life transitions—whether that’s adjusting to parenthood, navigating relationship changes, coping with a career shift, or dealing with the grief that comes from losing someone or something important. My clients often describe feeling “stuck” when we first meet, unsure of how to move forward. Together, we create a space where they can breathe, reflect, and begin to heal.
As someone who has navigated significant transitions in my own life, I understand how disorienting change can feel. That personal perspective helps me hold space for your unique experience—especially when life feels messy or uncertain.
In our work, I bring a calming, down-to-earth presence that invites openness and connection. I meet clients where they are—with no pressure to have it all figured out—and support them in building greater self-awareness, confidence, and clarity. I also love working with parents who are navigating the complexities of raising children with emotional or behavioral struggles. Parenthood can be joyful and deeply challenging, and I believe that compassionate support can make a real difference.
I’m also passionate about helping couples who are facing conflict, disconnection, or major transitions. Whether you’re looking to repair communication or reconnect after a period of strain, I offer a nonjudgmental space for both partners to feel heard and supported.
I hold a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University and I’m licensed in the state of Georgia as an Associate Professional Counselor (APC010193). I’m also trained in the Gottman Method for couples therapy, a research-based approach that helps partners strengthen connection, improve communication, and repair conflict in meaningful ways. I receive clinical supervision from Amy Robbins LPC CPCS, and direction and secondary supervision from Jaime Filler LMFT.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or simply in need of someone who truly listens, I’d be honored to walk with you. Together, we can create a path forward that feels grounded and true to you.

Olga A. Attebery, LAMFT, LAPC, Therapist
Sometimes in the midst of struggle it is hard to be hopeful. When it’s hard, it is my privilege to hold hope for you.
As a first-generation American I am sensitive to the complexities of a multi-cultural existence. My role as a therapist is to provide a tranquil space in which to nurture hope. I strongly align with a person-centered approach to therapy, wherein the therapy relationship is collaborative. I will work together with you to set and work toward your goals.
My therapeutic perspective also relies heavily on family systems, which requires consideration of a client's whole family dynamic and how it shaped them. Additionally, if a client desires to include their faith perspective in therapy, I am able to incorporate faith as much or as little as desired. Time with clients is sacred and it is important to me that my clients enter into a space where they feel safe, understood, and supported.
I work with both men and women, as well as couples. I have a passion for working with couples through affair recovery and other difficult transitions. I am a Certified Couples Betrayal Recovery Therapy Candidate (CCBRT-C). I’m also trained in the Gottman method and use this approach along with techniques from Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help my couples reach their relationship goals. I also have a passion for working with trauma, grief and loss, affair recovery/betrayal trauma, and addictions.
I am currently dual licensed in the state of GA as an Associate Professional Counselor (APC008598) and as an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist (AMFT000767). I have earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy from Richmont Graduate University, and a Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology with a certificate in Latin American Studies and Global Studies Certification from Georgia Gwinnett College. I am a member of the Georgia Association of Marriage & Family Therapists, American Association for Marriage & Family Therapists, American Counseling Association (ACA), and Christian Association of Psychological Studies (CAPS).
I am supervised by S. LaShay Dowley PhD (c), LPC and receive clinical direction from Jaime Filler LMFT. I offer both in-person and virtual sessions.
My hope is that your time with me will be an opportunity to exhale any heaviness that you are holding and inhale hope for the future. I strongly believe that you have the potential for a brighter tomorrow.
Olga’s session rates are $165 (50-minute session) and $250 (75-minute session).

Jaime Filler, LMFT, PMH-C, Clinical Director
The decision to begin therapy can be a difficult one. It is my goal to build a strong relationship with each person who comes to my office, to help them feel comfortable so they can fully benefit from the therapeutic process. In therapy, I often use humor to put my clients at ease and lighten the mood when it is appropriate. My collaborative and supportive approach allows my clients to draw on their own strengths to overcome current obstacles and begin to make positive changes in their lives.
I utilize an integrative approach to therapy. This means what works for one person does not always work for another and I tailor my approach to fit each unique client. In my practice, I use evidenced-based therapeutic methods, such as cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness, in addition to family systems theory. I am also trained in the Gottman Method for couple’s therapy and EMDR for trauma.
I have experience working with a variety of issues that impact adults, couples, and families. My areas of focus include maternal mental health, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and relationship problems. I am particularly passionate about working with women and their partners who are struggling with the challenges that come with becoming a new parent. I am a certified Gottman Bringing Baby Home Program Educator, and provide workshops to help couples in the transition to parenthood.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (MFT001198) , Certified Perinatal Mental Health Specialist (PMH-C), and AAMFT Approved Clinical Supervisor. I earned a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology from San Jose State University, and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of California, Santa Barbara. I’m a member of Postpartum Support International and a clinical member of the Georgia Association of Marriage & Family Therapists and the American Association for Marriage & Family Therapists.
I offer both in-person and virtual sessions.
On a personal note, I enjoy traveling and exploring new cultures, cooking, practicing yoga and getting out into nature with my family.
Jaime’s specialties include pregnancy and postpartum therapy, anxiety therapy, therapy for depression, grief and loss counseling, couples therapy, and workshops for new parents.
Jaime’s session rates are $185 (50-minute session) and $280 (75-minute session)
