After Years of Putting Others First
You may feel stressed, frustrated, and unsure what to do next. Although you were able to push through before, everything feels heavier and harder to handle now. Since you learned early to put yourself on the back burner, practicing self care feels selfish and unproductive.
Instead, you suffer in silence and use unhealthy habits as false escapes to temporarily numb the pain. You may find yourself stuck in a cycle of doom scrolling on your cell phone, avoiding others like the plague, neglecting daily responsibilities and feeling worse as the days go by.
Over time, this can affect your ability to focus, connect with others and complete tasks without feeling overwhelmed.
The Pain You Hide
✔ So sad and tired that getting out of bed is exhausting
✔ Perfectionist paralyzed in planning but cannot execute
✔ Intense emotions that take you from 0 to 100 real quick
✔ Constant fear that causes avoidance, anger and irritation
The Pain You Hide
✔ Feels like you’re drowning in tasks with no support
✔ Worry too much about what will happen in the future
✔ Going through the motions with little interest or effort
✔ Replay conversations in your head leading to self doubt
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
You have done the heavy lifting,
often without a break to lighten the load.

At Authentic Living Therapeutic Solutions, we can help you unpack overwhelming thoughts, sort out your needs and build healthy habits to make life easier to carry.
Common Reasons Adults Reach Out
Many adults were raised in an emotionally immature family because past generations lacked mental health awareness and healthy coping skills. In these environments, children received the backlash from highly critical caregivers who controlled everything but their own emotions.
As a result, they learned to maneuver in unpredictable environments and confused survival for safety. Those survival skills that once protected them are vicious cycles that affect daily life.
You May Notice:
ADHD and executive dysfunction
Difficulty setting boundaries
Emotional overwhelm
Depression and low motivation
Self doubt
Perfectionism and self criticism
Anxiety and over thinking

What Change Can Look Like
01. Starting
When people start therapy, they may feel nervous with an unfamiliar person and hesitant about change.
02. Building
As the therapeutic rapport is built, people feel relieved by naming their stressors and setting goals for their true desires.
03. Thriving
After some lifestyle adjustments, people become more confident and empowered to thrive on their mental health journey.
Progress in therapy is a cycle of growth and setbacks, not a straight path.
However, the goal is progress not perfection and your participation determines your success.
Meet Meagan Harrison, LCSW, ADHD-CCSP
Hi, I’m Meagan and I support adults in Georgia struggling with anxiety, depression and ADHD feel calmer, sleep longer and focus more on what matters.
My style is direct, solution-focused and grounded in empathy. I offer relatable interactions that encourage, empower and educate Clients so they can take their lives to the next level.
I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker and an ADHD Certified Clinical Service Provider with over 10 years of mental health experience. I use clinical training and lived experiences to transform people pleasers into cycle breakers that disrupt generational trauma to heal themselves and others.
Clients that work with me often appreciate my ability to provide tools to match their problems so they can feel relief sooner than later. They also enjoy the way I use shared laughter to build trust, reduce stress and reframe negative thoughts.

Individual Therapy
Looking for collaborative, one-on-one treatment?
I offer online individual therapy to adults in Georgia who are struggling with depression, anxiety and ADHD and are ready to build the skills and support needed to manage life’s challenges.
01
Depression
When you don't have the energy to do anything so you stay in bed all day, you feel nothing and everything at the same time. Together, we can re-engage with the self care you need, the ones you love and the activities you enjoy to stop the downward spiral.
- Improve mood & motivation
- Increase energy & enjoyment of life
- Reconnect with support system
- Boost overall well-being

Anxiety
When your nervous system has been on high alert for so long, overwhelm feels normal. Together, we can slow down the cycle, befriend the body’s signals, and rebuild a baseline of calm that doesn’t depend on everything going right.
- Sleep & racing-mind support
- Cultivate a regulated nervous system
- Challenge negative thinking
- Recognize & reduce triggers
03
ADHD
When you have raw dogged life without the right support, you constantly compare yourself to others and feel like a failure. Together, we can explore your neurodivergent mind and implement skills for you to stay regulated enough to get your life back on track.
- Enhance Executive Function
- Develop emotional regulation skills
- Learn life hacks for motivation
- Soothe inner critic & self doubt
