Ali Dennard, LCSW
I’m so glad you’re here! It takes vulnerability and courage to reach out for support and even more so to examine the wounds, scars, and pain you’re carrying. While emotional and relational pain is universal, it can feel incredibly isolating. You don’t have to walk through it alone.
I honor each person’s unique story as we explore your past, uncover strengths, gain clarity on values, and navigate the path forward. Blending warmth and authenticity (and a little humor) with evidence-based practices, I create a safe environment for clients to support meaningful change and healing.
A little background on me — I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in public relations from the University of Alabama before earning my master’s in social work. My experience spans a variety of clinical settings, including partial hospitalization / intensive outpatient treatment at The Berman Center, outpatient therapy in the Trauma and General Mental Health clinic at the Atlanta VA, and fieldwork with survivors of domestic sex trafficking at Georgia Cares. This breadth of experience allows me to hold space and support clients through various challenges.
When I’m not working as a therapist, I love spending time with friends, watching Alabama football, going to concerts, traveling, and hanging out with my two rescue chihuahuas .
