About Mycah
Mycah Whiting is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. She speaks plainly and listens closely to understand what matters most to each person. Her style is warm and direct, focused on practical steps people can use between sessions.
She has worked in counseling for 13 years and draws on that experience when supporting people through grief, relationship strain, anger, and life changes.
Background and approach
She also addresses intimacy concerns, body image, eating-related struggles, and problems tied to family of origin. Mycah supports people dealing with ADHD-related challenges and impulsivity as part of her practice. Mycah uses a person-centered way of working that begins with the client’s goals.
She blends approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to build skills for coping and managing difficult emotions. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is finding the will to change, and existential ideas help people clarify values and life purpose. Sessions are collaborative.
Mycah focuses on what a person wants to change and then maps out practical steps. She offers tools for self-regulation, communication, and reducing harmful patterns like codependency or substance use. She works with adults in Georgia and holds a GA LPC license.
Sessions can take place by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and communication preferences.
Therapeutic approaches for online care and skill building
Mycah commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy in online sessions. CBT focuses on noticing and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. DBT teaches concrete skills for calming intense emotions, improving relationships, and managing impulsive behavior.She also draws from Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person’s priorities and supports self-directed growth. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process - the therapist and client decide together what methods fit the person’s goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration can shift as progress is made or new issues emerge.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for hands-on skill practice and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for brief check-ins. Live chat and text messaging can help people stay connected between sessions or when messaging fits a day’s schedule better. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and recovery commitments.
