Terry's Bio

Education and Experience

Upon completion of my Master's in Community Counseling from Georgia State University in 1987, I joined a private practice in Jonesboro, GA, under the supervision of a Child Psychologist counseling children, young adults and families. Beginning in 1990, I worked at Atlanta Mission, serving the homeless and needy for sixteen years. As Program Director, I supervised the Personal Development Program for women and women with children who were seeking recovery for chemical dependency, domestic violence and various other life-controlling problems. I received my MAC (Master Addiction Counselor Certification) in 1996. I became a Licensed Professional Counselor in 1998. After leaving the Mission, I gained experience working at Anchor Hospital and Breakthrough Addiction Recovery. I also worked with Wellspring Living, counseling adolescent girls rescued from human trafficking. In June 2008, I established Freeman Counseling and Consulting.

Individual Counseling Services for Adolescents and Adults

My clinical orientation is Client Centered Therapy. That is, I believe that my clients are the experts and it is my job to walk along side of them to help them achieve the goals they wish to accomplish. In therapy, I seek to help my client become as emotionally and mentally healthy as possible. I use a variety of therapeutic approaches in order to practice the most effective, evidence-based treatment that meets each need for healing.

Although I live out what I feel is a life calling to minister to the homeless, broken and needy in my own hometown of Atlanta, I also have a strong passion for international ministry. I have gone on mission and service trips to Papua New Guinea, India, France, Puerto Rico, South Korea, Kenya, Rwanda and Guatemala.
