💕 Clayton Counseling is such a fabulous (and local!) resource for families. 💕

Community Friday Spotlight 📢

This week, we’re excited to highlight one of our valued community partners, Appalachian Psychological & Behavioral Services (APBS)!

Led by Dr. Whitney Kleinert, APBS provides comprehensive psychological and psychoeducational evaluations, therapy, parent consultation, and school consultation. APBS is especially known for working with Autistic and other neurodiverse individuals, offering compassionate, neuro-affirming care to children, teens, adults, and families.

At Clayton Counseling, we believe the best care happens when providers work together. We’re thankful to partner with Dr. Kleinert and APBS, referring clients to one another so individuals and families can access the services that best fit their unique needs.

We’re grateful to have dedicated professionals like Dr. Kleinert with Appalachian Psychological and Behavioral Services serving our North Georgia community! 💙
