About Wanda

Wanda Goldthrip is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing grief, depression, bipolar challenges, low self-esteem, panic attacks, and major life changes. Wanda also focuses on feelings like guilt, shame, loneliness, and questions about life purpose.

Her approach blends practical, evidence-based methods with attention to personal values. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, build coping skills, and reconnect with what matters. Conversations include identifying patterns, testing small changes, and practicing new responses between sessions.

Wanda describes integrating Christian-based perspectives alongside secular approaches when clients want that included. She adjusts conversations and goals to fit each person’s preferences without assuming the same path for everyone. Sessions are straightforward and aim to clarify options rather than promise quick fixes.

People who come because they feel stuck at work or unsure what comes next can expect focused sessions that look at practical steps. Wanda pays attention to mood symptoms like low motivation or panic while also addressing relational and meaning questions. The emphasis is on working together to find what helps in day-to-day life.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Wanda commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavioral changes to shift mood and coping. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can help with anxiety, panic, and low mood.

Motivational Interviewing is also part of her work and is used to clarify values and build momentum for change when motivation feels low. She treats finding the right mix of methods as a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals and adjust techniques together so sessions fit the person’s priorities and comfort level.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or avoiding the need to be on camera when someone prefers not to. Licensed professionals can help adapt exercises and homework for remote work so that practices can be carried out between sessions.
