Why Relationship Therapy?
At the end of the day, and profoundly at the end of our lives, our relationships are what’s most important.
When a dear friend with cancer approached the end of life she remarked, “Michelle, life is about the people. Here at the end, all that matters in life is our relationships.”
“…life is about the people. Here at the end, all that matters in life is our relationships.”
“That’s who you don’t want to leave, and worry about when you’re gone,” she said.
Relationships are woven like threads through the fabric of our lives. Research tells us that our earliest attachments impact the brain’s neural connections shaping us as humans, influencing how we connect, and teaching us what we know of love.
However, none of us come into this world with relationship skills which is why relationship therapy can be helpful to strengthen our connections, and help us to make sense of our lives.
Often the effort to shift the struggle in our relationships begins first with improving ourselves.

Meet the Therapist:
Michelle C. Brooten-Brooks, M.S., LMFT
Welcome! I am a licensed marriage and family telehealth therapist serving adults age 18+ for individual therapy, couples therapy, marriage counseling, and relationship therapy in Georgia. I am also a health and medical journalist. I often write about health and mental health topics.
Telehealth in Georgia
If you are looking for a therapist, I am accepting new adult clients and couples located in Georgia for online therapy sessions. The link below will lead you to more information on my background and training.
Discussing the Undiscussable, Hearing the Unhearable
Studies show what leads to effective outcomes in therapy when choosing a therapist is whether they are a fit for you and how well you connect with them. Can you discuss the undiscussable with them? Can they hear your unhearables? Forging a connection — the therapeutic alliance as it is termed — is what makes the difference.
Striving & Thriving
Whether I’m the therapist for you or not, it is important that you find the clinician who will support your steps toward change, guide your goals, and integrate the healing, while empowering you toward striving and thriving.
