Online Therapy in Brookhaven, Georgia
Premarital counseling, couples therapy, and individual and teen therapy for Brookhaven, all online with Georgia-licensed clinicians.
Therapy for Brookhaven
The best time to work on a relationship is often before anything is seriously wrong. If you're engaged, newly married or moving in together in Brookhaven, premarital or early-relationship counseling can help you talk about money, family, conflict and expectations while the stakes still feel manageable.
We're an online practice serving DeKalb County and the rest of Georgia. Couples sessions run 50 to 60 minutes, both partners join the same session, and you can meet from home. We also offer individual therapy for adults and teen therapy for ages 13 to 17.
Who we help
Reasons people reach out
Beyond premarital work, our couples therapists help partners with communication, intimacy, blended-family stress and rebuilding trust. If you want something lighter and skills-focused, relationship coaching is an option, and it doesn't require a diagnosis. Individual therapy is available for anxiety, depression and life transitions.
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 Brookhaven
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
Teen therapy for Brookhaven families covers ages 13 through 17. Teens come to us with test anxiety, sadness that's affecting sleep or friendships, perfectionism, bullying, family changes like divorce, and questions about who they are. Each teen gets a written safety plan at intake, updated as needed.
Parent involvement is built in without taking over. You start the process, sign consent, and meet with the therapist periodically. With written consent from both you and your teen, we can coordinate with school counselors or IEP and 504 teams so therapy lines up with what's happening at school.
Scheduling around the school day is simpler online. Your teen needs a private room and a device, not a ride, and sessions can be booked on weekday afternoons and early evenings until 7pm ET or on Saturdays from 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions 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
Online therapy, explained
If you've never done therapy over video, it's simpler than it sounds. You get a link, you join from a quiet room, and you talk with a licensed therapist who can see and hear you. Some people find it easier to open up from their own space.
Brookhaven residents can book within our hours: 8am to 7pm ET Monday through Friday, and 10am to 3pm ET on Saturdays, plus Sunday sessions by arrangement. Headphones help with privacy if others are home. Georgia licensing means you need to be in the state for every session.

Insurance and cost
Insurance, Medicaid and private pay
Cost shouldn't be a mystery. Brookhaven 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.

Questions people ask before starting
Do you have an office in Brookhaven?
No. MentalSpace Therapy is an online practice, and every session happens over secure video. Brookhaven residents meet with a Georgia-licensed therapist from home or another private place in Georgia. Our mailing address is in Alpharetta, but we don't see clients there.
Does insurance cover life or relationship coaching?
No. Coaching isn't a medical service, so insurance doesn't apply. Rates depend on the coach's credential and are shared on your welcome call before you commit. If what you need is clinical, such as treatment for anxiety or depression, therapy can be billed to insurance.
Do you take insurance for therapy in Brookhaven?
Yes. We accept Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Optum / UnitedHealthcare, Humana, select Medicare Advantage plans, and Georgia Medicaid through Amerigroup, CareSource and Peach State Health Plan. With insurance, sessions can be as low as $0 per session depending on your plan, and we verify your benefits before your first session.
How quickly can I start?
The intake form takes about two minutes. A care coordinator calls within 24 to 72 hours, and the first session is usually within about a week, depending on therapist availability. No card is collected online and nothing is charged before your first session.
How do I start therapy for my teenager in Brookhaven?
A parent or legal guardian completes our intake form on the teen's behalf and signs consent. We see teens ages 13 to 17. A care coordinator talks briefly with both of you, then matches your teen with a therapist who specializes in adolescents. Sessions are by secure video, so your teen can join from home after school.
