Kahla Childers, Intern
Hi, I'm Kahla (she/they) and I am so honored to be interning with Athens Center for Counseling and Play Therapy this year. I'm currently a third-year graduate student in the Mental Health Counseling program at the University of North Georgia. In my life I have worked with diverse populations from birth to adulthood in a variety of settings, as a crisis counselor with The Trevor Project, a prenatal support group facilitator through Athens Parent Well-Being, a summer camp and program director for children and youth, and a middle and high school youth conference creator. I am passionate about working with children, youth, parents, and families and I am grateful to be welcomed on your journey. I believe that all humans are worthy of love and belonging and I try to cultivate an empathetic space with room for growth and development. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, fascinated by play and creative expression, and like to spend time reading, learning aerial arts, dancing, singing, and spending time in nature. I look forward to meeting you!
