Therapy in Marietta, GA

I’m Amanda Marks, a therapist and the owner of Resilient Counseling, providing therapy for adults in Marietta, East Cobb, and the greater Atlanta area. I specialize in EMDR therapy and trauma treatment, including complex and developmental trauma, while also working with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, eating disorders, and complicated relationships with food and body image. My approach is warm, collaborative, and focused on helping you understand not just what is happening, but why you keep getting stuck in the same patterns.

Who I Help

You may be functioning pretty well on the outside while still feeling like something isn't quite working on the inside.

I often work with people who:

• Feel stuck even though they have a lot of insight and understand why they do what they do.

• Experience anxiety, overthinking, or a nervous system that seems to have trouble slowing down.

• Struggle with perfectionism, people-pleasing, or feeling like they always have to hold everything together.

• Have experienced childhood or developmental trauma that continues to affect relationships, self-worth, emotions, or their sense of safety.

• Have a complicated relationship with food, eating, weight, or body image.

• Are interested in EMDR therapy but aren't sure whether it is the right fit for them.

• Feel disconnected from their emotions or their body and want to feel more present and connected to themselves.

Therapy isn't about checking off a list of symptoms. It's about understanding what is happening underneath the patterns that keep showing up, and figuring out what actually helps.

Therapy Services in Marietta

EMDR Therapy

EMDR can be helpful for processing traumatic experiences, distressing memories, and patterns that continue to affect you in the present.

Trauma & Complex PTSD

Trauma doesn't always come from one obvious event. I work with people who have experienced childhood, developmental, relational, or other forms of complex trauma.

Eating Disorder Therapy

I provide weight-inclusive therapy for people struggling with eating disorders, disordered eating, body image, and complicated relationships with food and their bodies.

Anxiety & Perfectionism

Anxiety and perfectionism often go hand in hand with overthinking, self-criticism, people-pleasing, and feeling like you can never quite do enough.

EMDR Intensives

For clients who want a more focused approach, IFS Informed EMDR intensives can provide dedicated time for deeper trauma processing outside of the structure of a traditional weekly session.
