Online Therapy in Alpharetta, Georgia

Online therapy for Alpharetta adults, couples and teens from Georgia-licensed therapists. Every session is by secure video, so you meet from home.

Therapy for Alpharetta

Our administrative mailing address is in Alpharetta, but we don't see clients there. MentalSpace Therapy is an online practice, so whether you live a few minutes from that address or across the state, therapy works the same way: secure video, a licensed Georgia therapist, and no waiting room.

For Alpharetta residents, that means you can fit sessions into a weekday evening before 7pm ET or a Saturday between 10am and 3pm ET, or a Sunday by arrangement without adding a drive. Alpharetta is in Fulton County, and we work with individuals, couples and teens throughout the county.

Who we help

Is this a fit for you?

We help adults with anxiety, depression, grief, burnout and life transitions; couples who want to communicate better or rebuild trust; and teens ages 13 to 17 who are having a hard time at school or at home. If you want to work toward a goal rather than a clinical concern, life coaching is available too.

You might be dealing with

  • Big transitions: a move, a new job, a new baby, an empty house
  • Feeling stuck and wanting a clearer direction
  • Worry, anxiety or panic that keeps coming back
  • Stress and burnout from work, caregiving or both

Therapy services

Individual and couples therapy for Alpharetta

Individual therapy is one-on-one time with a Georgia-licensed therapist, usually in 50-minute sessions. People come to it for anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, burnout, big life changes, or simply feeling stuck. Your therapist starts building a plan with you in the first session instead of handing you a generic program.

Couples therapy is for partners who want to change how they communicate, rebuild trust, or decide what comes next. Sessions run 50 to 60 minutes, and both partners are covered under one session. You can join from the same room or from two different places, as long as you are both in Georgia at the time.

Ages 13–17

Therapists who specialize in adolescents

Parents stay involved

Consent, safety updates and family sessions

Around the school day

Weekdays until 7pm ET and weekends

If you're a Alpharetta parent, you may have noticed changes before your teen said a word: slipping grades, skipped meals, more time behind a closed door. Teen therapy gives 13- to 17-year-olds a confidential place to talk with a therapist who specializes in adolescents, not an adult therapist who occasionally sees kids.

You stay involved in the ways that matter. You fill out the intake and sign consent, you hear right away if there is a safety concern, and you join periodic family sessions. Your teen is told on day one what stays private and what doesn't, which is what makes the room safe enough for honest work.

Because sessions are online, there's no pickup line and no drive after school. Look for a weekday time after classes end, before 7pm ET, or a Saturday between 10am and 3pm ET, or a Sunday by arrangement.

Coaching

Coaching for goals, not diagnoses

Life coaching and relationship coaching are skills- and decision-focused. A life coach can help you plan a career move or build habits that stick. A relationship coach can help you and a partner talk through decisions without the conversation turning into a fight.

Most of our coaches hold ICF credentials at the ACC, PCC or MCC level. Coaching is private pay, because insurance treats it as non-medical, and the per-session rate depends on the coach's credential.

How online therapy works

Getting the most out of video sessions

Online sessions work best when you treat them like an appointment: find a private spot, silence notifications, and give yourself a few minutes before and after. Your therapist can see you, hear you and work through exercises with you in real time.

Since you're not driving anywhere in Fulton County, it's easier to keep a steady weekly rhythm. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 7pm ET, and Saturday, 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions by arrangement. Wherever you join from, you need to be in Georgia during the session.

Insurance and cost

Insurance, Medicaid and private pay

Cost shouldn't be a mystery. Alpharetta clients with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Optum / UnitedHealthcare or Humana can use their benefits, and Georgia Medicaid members with Amerigroup, CareSource or Peach State Health Plan usually pay $0 per session.

Overall, sessions can be as low as $0 with insurance, depending on your plan, and we confirm your exact amount before your first appointment. Private pay is welcome at a simple per-session rate, with no subscription. Your insurer sees a diagnosis code and dates of service, never what you talk about in session.

Plans we accept

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • Aetna
  • Cigna
  • Optum / UnitedHealthcare
  • Humana
  • Select Medicare Advantage (Aetna, Humana)
  • Amerigroup (Georgia Medicaid)
  • CareSource (Georgia Medicaid)
  • Peach State Health Plan (Georgia Medicaid)
  • Private pay welcome

As low as $0 per session with insurance, depending on your plan.

Alpharetta FAQ

Questions people ask before starting

Can I meet my therapist at your Alpharetta address?

No. 1317 Preakness Dr in Alpharetta is our administrative mailing address, not a place where we see clients. Every session is held over secure video, so Alpharetta residents meet their Georgia-licensed therapist from home or another private place in Georgia.

What hours can Alpharetta clients book sessions?

Our hours are Monday through Friday from 8am to 7pm ET and Saturday from 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions by arrangement. Exact appointment times depend on your therapist's availability, and the care team will look for a recurring time that fits your schedule.

Do you accept Georgia Medicaid in Fulton County?

Yes. We work with the Georgia Medicaid plans Amerigroup, CareSource and Peach State Health Plan, and most Medicaid clients pay $0 per session. We confirm your benefits before your first session.

Can my partner and I join couples therapy from different places?

Yes, as long as you are both physically in Georgia at the time of the session. That's a licensing requirement. Many couples join from the same room; others join from two locations when work or travel keeps them apart. Both partners are covered under one session.

Do I have to be in Alpharetta for my sessions?

No. You can join from anywhere in Georgia: home, work, or somewhere else private. Because our therapists are licensed in Georgia, you do need to be in the state during every session. If you move within Georgia, you can keep the same therapist.
