EMDR Therapy for Marietta, GA Trauma, PTSD and Complex PTSD Care in Person or by Telehealth

Jeremy Fox, LPC, CPCS EMDRIA Approved Consultant · Published in the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research · Alpharetta, GA

If you live in Marietta and you're looking for a trauma therapist, Authentic Answers is a drive northeast to Alpharetta. Jeremy offers EMDR therapy for trauma, PTSD, and Complex PTSD in person in Alpharetta and through secure telehealth anywhere in Georgia. To be clear up front: there is no Marietta office. Marietta clients either make the drive to the Alpharetta office or meet by video from home.

Getting Here from Marietta

The Alpharetta office sits at 314 Maxwell Rd, Suite 400, Alpharetta, GA 30009, in the Colony Park Offices on South Main. From most of Marietta, the usual route is Roswell Road (GA-120) east through East Cobb into Roswell, then north on Alpharetta Highway (GA-9) into downtown Alpharetta. That trip crosses from Cobb into north Fulton, and the timing changes a lot with traffic.

Because of that distance, video can be the simpler choice from Cobb County. Telehealth uses a secure, HIPAA-compliant connection and is open to anyone located in Georgia. You can switch between video and in person as your schedule changes.

Common Reasons for Starting EMDR

Some people come in after one hard thing, such as a collision, a robbery, or an assault. Others are living with the effects of something that went on for years: an unsafe childhood, ongoing neglect, a partner who used fear to stay in charge. When harm is repeated like that, it's often described as Complex PTSD. Jeremy is also an in-network TRICARE provider, which matters to many military households.

• Reliving the past in flashbacks or dreams
• Feeling jumpy, tense, or watchful most of the day
• Panic or worry with roots in earlier experiences
• Patterns from childhood that keep showing up as an adult
• Traumatic grief after a sudden or difficult loss
• Numbness or a sense of watching life from outside

Inside EMDR Treatment

EMDR, short for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is one of the trauma therapies named in World Health Organization guidance. While you briefly hold a difficult memory in mind, you follow alternating eye movements or taps. The aim is for the memory to feel less raw across sessions, though responses differ. Read more in What is EMDR therapy and how does it work?

Early sessions focus on understanding your history and practicing ways to settle your nervous system. People with long-term trauma often spend more time here, by design. Memory processing follows, and later sessions review what has shifted. Jeremy can't promise a specific result, and he'll be honest about pacing.

For anyone who wants a more concentrated schedule, EMDR intensives offer extended sessions over a few days.
