Meet Temi
Couples, Family & Individual Therapy in Cumberland and North Metro Atlanta
I provide therapy in Cumberland, Atlanta, serving individuals, couples, and families throughout North Metro Atlanta. I am passionate about supporting people as they navigate the complexities of relationships, identity, and healing. I believe that the systems and relationships we are part of shape how we connect, grow, and find meaning in life. In our work together, you’ll find a steady, compassionate environment where your story is met with patience and understanding.
Therapy with me integrates attachment‑based and trauma‑informed care, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and experiential approaches. This framework helps deepen emotional awareness, interrupt painful relational patterns, and build stronger, more connected ways of relating — with yourself and with others.
Who I Help in Cumberland & North Metro Atlanta
Individual Therapy
I work with adults seeking greater emotional insight, healing from past wounds, and increased self‑awareness. Whether you’re navigating life transitions, identity questions, or difficulties with emotional regulation, therapy offers a space for meaningful growth.
Couples Therapy
I support couples working through communication challenges, attachment ruptures, trust concerns, and relational distress. Using an attachment‑informed, EFT‑aligned approach, we uncover what’s underneath reactive cycles and work toward deeper responsiveness and connection.
Family & Relational Work
Relationships don’t exist in isolation — they’re part of systems. I work with families to enhance understanding, improve communication, and strengthen bonds across relational dynamics. Whether you’re working through conflict or seeking greater cohesion, family therapy offers a path forward.
My Approach to Emotionally Focused Therapy in Atlanta
My work is grounded in attachment science and trauma‑informed care, rooted in the belief that healing begins in relationship — with others and with oneself. I integrate Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and experiential techniques to guide clients toward self‑discovery, emotional regulation, and relational resilience.
I strive to create a culturally sensitive, affirming, and non‑judgmental space where you can slow down patterns that no longer serve you and build more adaptive, secure ways of connecting. My therapeutic style is compassionate, reflective, and collaborative — honoring your lived experience and personal goals.
I currently practice under the clinical supervision of Alex Peskin, LMFT, and am pursuing dual licensure as both a Professional Counselor and a Marriage and Family Therapist.
