Online Therapy in Tucker, Georgia
Online therapy for depression, anxiety and relationship concerns in Tucker. Licensed Georgia therapists for adults, couples and teens.
Therapy for Tucker
Depression often makes it hardest to do the very things that would help, including finding a therapist. If you're in Tucker and getting through the day has started to take everything you have, we've tried to make starting as easy as possible: a short form and a call back from a person, not a maze of phone menus.
MentalSpace Therapy provides secure video therapy across DeKalb County and Georgia. You can meet from your couch or your kitchen table. Our team checks your insurance and tells you the cost before the first session, and with insurance, that can be as low as $0 depending on your plan.
Who we help
You don't need a crisis to start
We work with adults living with depression, anxiety, grief or burnout, with couples, and with teens ages 13 to 17 whose mood is affecting school or friendships. If you're having thoughts of suicide, please call or text 988 now. Therapy is not a crisis service, but it can be a big part of what comes next.
You might be dealing with
- Questions about identity, belonging or who you are becoming
- Grief after a death, a breakup or another loss
- A teenager who is struggling at school or at home
- Trouble sleeping, focusing or getting through the day
How online therapy works
No drive, no waiting room
Telehealth lets you see a therapist without adding travel time to your week. You can join from home, from a private office, or from anywhere in Georgia that gives you a closed door and a good connection.
Our video platform and client portal are HIPAA-compliant, and the free My MentalSpace app keeps appointments in one place. For Tucker clients with full days, the hours that matter most are weekday evenings until 7pm ET and Saturdays from 10am to 3pm ET, with Sunday sessions by arrangement.

Therapy services
Therapy for one person, or for two
If what's weighing on you lives mostly inside your own head, such as racing thoughts at night, a heaviness that won't lift, or a loss you haven't been able to talk about, individual therapy in Tucker is the usual starting point. You meet with the same licensed therapist each time, and the work moves at a pace you help set.
If the problem lives between you and a partner, couples therapy may fit better. Our couples clinicians draw on approaches such as the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy and Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy, and they don't take sides. Many insurance plans cover couples work as family or relational therapy, and we check yours before you start.
Ages 13–17
Teen therapy in Tucker
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
Our teen program is for 13- to 17-year-olds anywhere in DeKalb County, including Tucker. Therapists who specialize in adolescents help with anxiety, depression, school avoidance, social media comparison, identity, and conflict at home, using language that doesn't talk down to teens.
Here is how parents fit in: you fill out the form and sign consent, we speak with you and your teen before pairing them with a therapist, and you join family check-ins every four to six weeks. Siblings can each have their own therapist, which often works better than sharing one.
There's no commute, so a session can start a few minutes after your teen gets home. Weekday times run until 7pm ET, Saturday times from 10am to 3pm ET, and Sunday times by arrangement, depending on the therapist's availability.

Coaching
Life and relationship coaching for Tucker
Coaching is a good match when you want structure and accountability around something specific: a new role, a move, a decision you keep putting off, or a relationship you want to strengthen rather than repair.
Sessions happen over video, with a coach matched to the kind of goal you have. There's no diagnosis involved and insurance doesn't pay for coaching, so we share the per-session rate on your welcome call and confirm it before your first session.

Questions people ask before starting
What should I do in a crisis?
MentalSpace Therapy is not a crisis service. If you are in danger, call 911. For a mental health crisis, call or text 988, the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, or call the Georgia Crisis & Access Line at 1-800-715-4225. Both are available 24 hours a day.
Do you have an office in Tucker?
We don't have an office in Tucker, or anywhere else, because all of our therapy is online. That means no drive and no waiting room: you join a secure video session from a private spot in Georgia, and paperwork happens in our client portal.
What hours can Tucker 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 DeKalb 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.
