About
You don’t have to have everything figured out to take the first step toward healing. Sometimes, you simply need a safe place to begin. Healing begins when you feel safe enough to be seen, heard, and understood.
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.

Hi, I’m Quiseonna, a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor with a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I work with children, adolescents, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationships, life transitions, and substance use. Therapy isn’t just about talking, it's also about those “ohhh, now that makes sense” moments. Together, we will explore the why behind your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while building practical skills for real life change.
My approach is person centered and practical, using CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing to help you understand patterns, manage emotions, and build skills you can actually use outside of therapy. Expect a supportive space where we can do the work, celebrate the wins, and turn those “aha!” moments into real life growth.
You don’t have to have all the answers before starting therapy. Sometimes showing up is the first step. Healing takes time, patience, understanding, and consistency, and I’m here to walk alongside you through the process. When you are ready, I would be honored to connect with you and take that next step together. You deserve a space to simply be you.

I’m a trauma‑informed therapist who blends warmth, clinical precision, and a deep respect for each person’s lived experience to help clients feel safe, seen, and capable of meaningful change.
I am an associate professional counselor in Georgia, and I support clients who've been carrying a heavy load alone and are finally ready for relief from always having to be strong. I work with children experiencing big feelings they can't yet name, teens trying to understand who they are, and adults navigating trauma, anxiety, or major life transitions. My clients often want to feel more regulated, connected, and grounded, understand their emotions, and break old patterns. I offer a warm, steady space where you can feel seen rather than judged, understood rather than dismissed, and supported as you build tools that fit your life.
I specialize in trauma, anxiety, emotional regulation, and life transitions, using person-centered, trauma-informed care with therapeutic play foundations, mindfulness, somatic awareness, and strengths-based practices. I support clients in developing communication and coping skills. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.
I offer a supportive, goal‑focused space where you can explore what's been challenging and gain clarity about your next steps. If you're considering therapy, I welcome you to reach out so we can explore whether working together aligns with the changes you are hoping to make.

Having lived through immigration and personal transitions, I bring empathy and understanding for how complex life changes can impact our sense of self and belonging.
I’m Cecilia, and I work with individuals navigating stress, anxiety, cultural and family pressures, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, yet want deeper self-understanding, emotional balance, and healthier ways of coping. I aim to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore your experiences, feel genuinely heard, and build resilience while staying connected to your values and identity.
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and culturally aware. I integrate person-centered therapy, mindfulness, and CBT tools to help you understand patterns, regulate emotions, and develop practical coping skills. Together, we move at your pace while building insight, confidence, and meaningful change.
Seeking support can feel vulnerable, especially if you’re used to handling things on your own. You don’t have to navigate it alone. I strive to offer a space where you feel safe, respected, and understood, and I’d be honored to walk alongside you when you feel ready to begin.

Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC)
Ashley: A go-to approach for helping people in grief & loss counseling is psychoeducation. The best benefit of psychoeducation is that people find comfort in understanding what they are going through.
Elouise: My go-to approach for helping people in grief & loss is establishing rapport and providing education about grief and the symptoms of grief. I recommend books on the topic of grief.
Ashley: Clinicians will teach the following tools in grief & loss counseling:
Elouise: I encourage clients to express their feelings associated with the loss. The story of the loss is shared in sessions. Feelings of anger and regret are explored.
Ashley: The clinician will know a client is making meaningful progress in grief & loss counseling when the loss isn't as painful to them as when the client first started the sessions.
Elouise: I know a client is making meaningful progress in grief & loss counseling when less time is focused on the loss and the client begins to reengage in daily activities and pleasurable activities with their family, friends, and community.
Ashley: Clients can supplement their time in grief & loss counseling by attending grief support groups.
Elouise: Clients can supplement their time in grief & loss counseling with reading books on the topic of grief, allowing loved ones to help, and saving the memories of the loved one.
Ashley: To prepare for their first grief & loss counseling session, an individual can think about how much support they will get from this journey.
Elouise: To prepare for their first grief & loss counseling session, an individual can be open and honest with themselves and the therapist.
Grief and loss counseling helps people grieve difficult losses including the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or the end of a relationship. It helps people navigate their grief process and eventually accept, understand, and move forward from their loss. Thriveworks grief therapists in Lawrenceville, GA have specific experience, training, and skills that enable them to best support grieving individuals.
Grief and loss counseling isn’t one-size-fits-all, but it involves sharing about your loss and then working with your counselor to acknowledge and accept your new reality in its wake. Your provider at Thriveworks in Lawrenceville, GA will design your treatment plan around your unique needs and goals for therapy, applying the counseling techniques that best support them.
If you have recently experienced an event like the death of a loved one, a breakup or divorce, the loss of a job, or another major life change, then you may want to seek grief and loss counseling. Grief can be caused by many experiences and events, so if you feel that you are having trouble moving on from a certain event or find that it is still impacting your life and functioning, grief and loss counseling can help you process it more effectively so that you can move on and once again find fulfillment and satisfaction in your life.
There are many counseling theories for treating grief, one of the most frequently used being the dual process model of grief which helps people acknowledge who or what they’ve lost through rumination while also adjusting to the new roles and identities that this loss has now placed on them. There are also many commonly used therapy approaches used in grief and loss counseling, including Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and traumatic grief therapy.
Grief & loss counseling at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
For many, grief and loss counseling lasts for about 6 months. For others, it may last shorter or longer, depending on the severity of their loss and their grief.
