Georgie Whatmore, MA

Georgie Whatmore, MA Founder of The Self First Counseling and Coaching. Today we are often gifted with incredible freedom of choice in life.

I specialize in supporting young adults, adults, and couples through life transitions, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, adult ADHD, anxiety, depression, and the pressure of finding their “path” in today’s hectic world. The choice to pursue what truly brings you joy – what revs your engine! The societal constraints and the “set path” of your parents and grandparents no longer neatly applies to younger generations. This is both liberating and can be a huge weight of responsibility! When working together, I strive to hold space for you and foster a non-judgmental, trusting, and warm relationship. My approach is casual and conversational in addressing your unique needs and achieving your therapeutic goals. My background in behavioral change-focused life and health/wellness coaching shapes my approach to address all facets of one’s life, with a strong emphasis on the mind-body connection. Through my background as both a coach and counselor, I use therapeutic techniques/interventions grounded in theories such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gottman and Imago Couples Therapy – all through a holistic and integrative lens. The foundation of my approach is a collaboration of psychodynamic, person-centered, and humanistic theories, meaning you are more than a set of problems or symptoms; you are human.

Hi Everyone! I'm Georgie!

Sometimes the challenges and transitions of life can be hard to move through on your own and it can be even harder to find someone who you mesh with and truly GETS IT. I am passionate about supporting my clients in a way that helps them feel comfortable and relaxed. If you are looking for a therapist with passion and energy and is something that you can connect with- I’m you girl!

I specialize in young adults, adults, and couples. I understand how “adulting” can be hard, no matter what age group you fall into.

I support my clients in life transitions, self esteem issues, navigating all kinds of relationships and relationship issues, adult ADHD, anxiety, depression, and the pressure of finding their “path”in today’s hectic world.

Today we are often gifted with incredible freedom of choice in life. The choice to pursue what truly brings you joy- what revs your engine- what you are passionate about! The societal constraints and the “set path” of your parents and grandparents no longer neatly applies to younger generations. This is both liberating and at the same time, can be a huge weight of responsibility!

As Eleanor Roosevelt said “Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility”, the more freedom and choices we have in life, the more responsibility we have and the weight of our choices increases– and this can be scary to navigate alone!

When working together, I strive to hold space for you to foster a non-judgemental, trusting, and warm relationship together. To promote growth through your unique journey. My approach is very casual and conversational. I work to tailor this approach to address your needs and achieve your therapeutic goals.

My background in behavioral change focused life and health & wellness coaching shapes my approach to be all encompassing and to address all facets of one’s life, with a strong emphasis on the mind-body connection.
Through my background as both a coach and counselor, I use therapeutic techniques/ interventions grounded in theories such as Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Gottman, and Imago Couples Therapy, all through a holistic and integrative lens.
