We’re Featured in VoyageATL!

There’s nothing better than being recognized for the vital work we’re doing to promote mental health treatment and awareness in Atlanta, Georgia. Thanks to a local publication, we’re getting the chance to reach a much larger audience and spread the word about our services!

Self-Care Simplified owner and operator Dr. Catherine Reynolds sat down with VoyageATL to discuss her journey to opening the center, the importance of their work, and what she sees as part of the future of mental health services, not only in Georgia but beyond.

Dr. Catherine Reynolds: A Pioneer in the Mental Health Community

Reynolds knew from a young age that she wanted to be a psychologist, recalling a time in grade school when a pair of school psychologists visited her classroom and helped her understand how people can feel. That canon event in her life led her down a path from Illinois to Georgia, where she majored in psychology at the University of Georgia. She soon gained her doctorate and quickly understood her passion was with high-achieving adults who may need help.

“Every experience — from early training to private practice — has strengthened my belief that lasting change comes from balance. My goal, in both life and work, is to help people build that balance for themselves so they can move through the world with more ease and authenticity,” Reynolds said to the publication.

Risk, Reward, and Re-energization

Reynolds credits her mental health background for helping her break away from her previous employer, finding a renewed interest in mental health services, and ultimately opening her own practice.

“A few years later, when I began building Self-Care Simplified, I carried that lesson with me while I was working at another group practice,” Reynolds said. “This time, I recognized the signs of misalignment earlier. I could feel that internal nudge again — but instead of waiting until I was desperate to make a change, I listened sooner. I started my practice while still employed, giving myself time to build slowly and intentionally.”
