About Macayla Coleman
My Experience
I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Clinical Counseling. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in both community clinics and private practice settings in Gainesville, Georgia and the surrounding areas. I have supported clients with a wide range of mental health needs. I am dedicated to providing counseling that is affirming and inclusive. In addition to my formal education, I’ve completed specialized training in gender-affirming care, ethical non-monogamy, and kink-aware practices. My goal is to offer collaborative therapy for clients across diverse identities and relationship structures.
My Services
I offer individual counseling in-person in Flowery Branch and online throughout Georgia, for clients ages 11 and older, providing a supportive space to explore emotions, build coping skills, and foster personal growth. My approach to therapy is affirming, collaborative, and tailored to each client’s needs, including those seeking gender-affirming care.
I have additional training specialized in supporting those with OCD.
Additionally, I provide relationship counseling for couples and polycules in Georgia, helping partners strengthen communication, navigate challenges, and build connection through understanding and trust. All relationship structures, identities, and orientations, are welcome.
My Approach
My approach to therapy is laid back and collaborative, as I believe that the therapeutic relationship is foundational to healing and growth. Understanding the unique challenges faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, I strive to provide gender-affirming care that respects and uplifts your identity. I utilize a blend of therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) (for clients with OCD) and Person-Centered Therapy, ensuring that my counseling sessions are tailored to meet your specific needs.
