What we do:
Marietta Office

Marietta, GA 30067

At Potter's Wheel Counseling, our primary goal is to help people find permanent solutions to problems. We don't want to provide a temporary relief that requires ongoing care. Instead, we want to get to the root of the problem and stop the struggling permanently.

In order to accomplish that, we will provide a full, complete intake assessment that will evaluate your current situation as well as past trauma. This fee for this initial assessment is $100. Once that initial assessment is completed, an appointment can be scheduled with the counselor that is the best fit for you. If necessary, a referral to a qualified counselor outside of our office will be provided.

While the counselors at Potter's Wheel do not currently take many types of insurance, we do believe that everyone should have access to mental health care. As a result, we provide counseling at reduced fees for those that qualify for our sliding scale. Please let your counselor know during the intake assessment if this applies to you.
