Mental Health Care Rooted in Our Community
Foothills Counseling, LLC was founded with a commitment to expanding access to quality mental health care for individuals and families in rural Northwest Georgia. We believe where you live should never determine whether you have access to compassionate, professional mental health support.
Our practice provides a welcoming environment where individuals and families can receive support, develop practical skills, strengthen relationships, and work toward healing and emotional well-being.
Our Story
Foothills Counseling grew from more than two decades of experience working alongside children, adults, and families in Northwest Georgia. Through work in child welfare, community mental health, hospice, schools, and other community settings, our founder, Michelle Floyd, saw firsthand both the strength of rural Appalachian communities and the barriers many families face when trying to access mental health care.
Those experiences created a long-term commitment to helping bring accessible, trauma-informed mental health services closer to home. Foothills Counseling was created to help meet that need while building meaningful partnerships within the communities we serve.
Our Mission
To increase access to compassionate, trauma-informed mental health care in rural Northwest Georgia while empowering individuals and families with the support, knowledge, and skills needed to heal, grow, and thrive.
