Online Therapy in Dunwoody, Georgia
Online therapy for Dunwoody professionals, couples and teens. Meet a Georgia-licensed therapist from home or a private office over secure video.
Therapy for Dunwoody
Work stress has a way of following you home. If you're in Dunwoody and your job has started to crowd out sleep, patience or the things you used to enjoy, therapy can help you sort out what's yours to fix and what isn't. You don't need to take half a day off to do it.
Sessions happen over secure video, so you can meet from home or from a private office with the door closed. Dunwoody is in DeKalb County, and we work with clients across the county. Our hours run Monday through Friday until 7pm ET and Saturdays from 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions by arrangement.
Who we help
Who we work with in Dunwoody
We help adults with burnout, anxiety, depression and work-life strain; couples whose careers leave little room for each other; and teens ages 13 to 17. If what you want is help with a career decision or a leadership challenge rather than therapy, our life coaches work on exactly that.
You might be dealing with
- Low mood, low energy or losing interest in things you used to enjoy
- Conflict or distance in a relationship
- Painful experiences that still affect you today
- Parenting stress and tension at home
Therapy services
Help with what you're carrying
Some people reach out about one specific problem, like panic attacks or a recent loss. Others can only say that something feels off. Both are good reasons to talk to a therapist. Individual sessions are confidential, about 50 minutes long, and built around goals you agree on together.
Couples therapy is for partners who keep circling the same fight, feel more like roommates than partners, or are working through a breach of trust. Both partners attend the same session for one fee, with no double billing, and both need to be in Georgia when you meet.

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 Dunwoody, 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.
How online therapy works
Secure video, on your schedule
MentalSpace Therapy is an online practice, so there is no office visit at any point. Your therapist meets you on a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, and consent forms, intake paperwork and scheduling all happen in a portal you can open from your phone.
Because nothing depends on driving, a session can fit into a weekday evening before 7pm ET or a Saturday between 10am and 3pm ET, or a Sunday by arrangement. You need to be in Georgia during each session, whether that's at home in Dunwoody or somewhere else in the state.

Monday–Friday 8am–7pm ET · Saturday 10am–3pm ET · Sunday by arrangement
Coaching
When coaching fits better than therapy
If your life is mostly working and you want help with a specific goal, coaching may be a better fit than therapy. Dunwoody clients can work with a life coach on career pivots, accountability or a major transition, or with a relationship coach on communication and navigating differences.
Coaching sessions are online, like therapy, and both partners attend relationship coaching together at no extra cost. Insurance doesn't apply to coaching, and we confirm the per-session rate before you start. If your relationship is in crisis, couples therapy is usually the better call.

Questions people ask before starting
What hours can Dunwoody 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 Dunwoody?
There's no physical office in Dunwoody. Sessions are held by secure video with Georgia-licensed therapists, so you can meet from home, a private office, or anywhere in the state with a closed door and a good connection.
Do I have to be in Dunwoody 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.
What if my therapist isn't the right fit?
Tell us. Fit matters, and we'll rematch you with a different therapist without any awkwardness. You can also share preferences on the intake form, such as your therapist's gender or the times you're available, so the first match is as close as possible.
Can I pay without using insurance?
Yes. Private pay is welcome at a simple per-session rate, confirmed before your first session, with no subscription or membership. HSA and FSA cards are accepted, and we can provide superbills if you want to seek out-of-network reimbursement.
