Hello, I'm Jessica Peterson, an Associate Professional Counselor (APC) at Thriveworks in Cumming, GA, supervised by Hannah Funderburk. I earned my M.S. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Troy University and specialize in offering compassionate, evidence-based care to children, teens, and adults. I work with individuals facing anxiety, ADHD, OCD, depression, eating disorders, grief, and other life concerns. Whether you want to master practical self-regulation tools or simply need a safe space to be truly heard, I offer a warm, empathetic environment dedicated to helping you heal and move forward.

Therapy is a collaborative healing process—not a one-size-fits-all model. I draw from CBT, DBT, IFS, play therapy, sand tray therapy, and a variety of other therapies to meet you right where you are.  I help you uncover your strengths, develop realworld coping tools, and process past experiences so you can navigate life with better ease and clarity.

Reaching out for support takes immense courage, but you don't have to navigate this season by yourself. Whether you are seeking practical coping strategies or a compassionate place to process heavy moments, I am here to support you every step of the way. I invite you to take the first step toward regaining your footing and schedule your initial session.

Hello, I'm Trinell Robertson, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Family Nurse Practitioner. With more than 15 years of experience in healthcare, I have learned that caring for the whole person means recognizing that behind every diagnosis is a unique individual with their own story, experiences, strengths, and challenges. Having had the privilege of caring for individuals across many stages of life, I have developed a deep understanding of the connection between physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life.

Whether you are struggling to manage anxiety, depression or trauma, experiencing difficulty with sleep or mood, or trying to find your way through a challenging season of life, you do not have to navigate it alone. I am committed to walking alongside you with compassion, respect, and understanding as you work toward balance, growth, and healing.

Most importantly, you do not have to navigate life's challenges alone. If you have been waiting for the right time to prioritize your mental health, let this be your reminder that it is okay to ask for help. I look forward to creating a safe space to help you feel more like yourself again. You are worthy of care, healing, and a meaningful life.
