Therapy services
Individual and couples therapy for Dalton
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.

Around the school day
Weekdays until 7pm ET and weekends
Adolescence is its own stage, and therapy for teens should look different from therapy for adults. Our clinicians adapt approaches like CBT and DBT skills for 13- to 17-year-olds, with concrete examples, more in-session practice and less homework. Teens have a say in the pace.
For parents in Dalton, the process starts with you: you complete the matching form on your teen's behalf and sign consent, and billing stays with you, never the teen. If your teen doesn't want to go, we can start with a short conversation with you or a no-pressure meet-and-greet with the therapist.
Video sessions mean your teen can join from home soon after school. With weekday hours until 7pm ET, Saturday hours from 10am to 3pm ET, and Sunday sessions by arrangement, it's easier to avoid missed classes.
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
How telehealth works for Dalton residents
Every session happens over a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform. You need a phone, tablet or computer, a reliable connection, and a private place to talk. Most people join from home, and some use a closed office during a lunch break.
There's no commute and no waiting room. Our hours run Monday through Friday from 8am to 7pm ET and Saturday from 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions by arrangement, so you can look for an evening or weekend time that works around your job or family. Licensing rules require you to be in Georgia during each session, so you can join from Dalton or anywhere else in the state.

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

Dalton FAQ
Questions people ask before starting
What hours can Dalton 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 have an office in Dalton?
No. MentalSpace Therapy is an online practice, and every session happens over secure video. Dalton 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.
How do I start therapy for my teenager in Dalton?
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.
Is online therapy private?
Sessions run on a HIPAA-compliant video platform, and your paperwork lives in a secure client portal. You choose a private place to join from. If you use insurance, your plan sees a diagnosis code and dates of service, never the content of your sessions. Private pay is available if you'd rather not file a claim.
Do you accept Georgia Medicaid in Whitfield 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.
