Therapist
Scott Maddox

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 30 years of experience in mental health and addictive disease evaluation and treatment. I specialize in working with adults who are experiencing PTSD, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, and suicidal thoughts. I earned my masters degree in Counseling from Georgia State University, where I also completed my bachelors degree in Mental Health.
As a trauma survivor myself, I bring a deep level of empathy and insight to the counseling process. This personal understanding allows me to connect with clients in a meaningful way as they navigate the challenging and often transformative journey of healing and recovery.
I meet clients exactly where they are. When you are willing to step into the counseling process with openness and courage, meaningful and lasting change is possible. I am continually inspired by the “Ah Ha” moments in therapy the powerful breakthroughs when clarity rises and healing begins.
My therapeutic style is honest and direct, balanced with compassion and respect. I work with clients to clearly define their wants, needs, and goals, and I collaborate with them to create a treatment plan that addresses their challenges and leads them toward the outcomes they want to achieve in psychotherapy.
At Nora Mental Health, my commitment is to provide supportive, effective, and empowering care so you can move toward a healthier and more grounded future.
