About Marcus Williams
Marcus Williams is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Midtown Atlanta, Georgia, with nine years of clinical experience working with Black men, families, and communities navigating trauma, relationship strain, and generational cycles of stress. He holds an MFT license from the Georgia Composite Board (#MFT004821) and earned his graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Clark Atlanta University — one of the nation's historically Black universities — where he developed the cultural grounding that continues to inform his practice. Before entering private practice, Marcus spent several years working in Atlanta community mental health centers, providing services to under-resourced families and men who had rarely — if ever — engaged with mental health support.
Marcus approaches therapy with a direct, warm, and affirming style that challenges the stigma Black men often face when considering therapy. He believes that strength does not mean silence, and that seeking support is itself a form of power. His training in Family Systems Therapy, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Narrative Therapy allows him to meet clients where they are — whether that is a man struggling with fatherhood and emotional availability, a family trying to hold itself together after a crisis, or an individual processing years of unaddressed grief, anger, or trauma. His Culturally Responsive approach means he actively integrates awareness of race, systemic oppression, and cultural values into the therapeutic work rather than treating them as background noise.
Clients who work with Marcus frequently describe the experience as both challenging and profoundly supportive. He creates space for clients to show up exactly as they are while also gently holding them accountable to the growth they say they want. His Midtown Atlanta office is welcoming and private, and telehealth sessions are available for Georgia residents who prefer the flexibility of remote care. Marcus is currently accepting new individual, family, and parenting consultation clients.

Client Reviews
"Marcus was the first therapist who made me feel like therapy was actually for me — not for someone else's idea of what I should be doing. He gets what it means to be a Black man trying to hold everything together. I finally feel like I can talk about things I've never told anyone."
"Our family was falling apart before we found Marcus. My husband had never been in therapy before and was skeptical, but Marcus made him feel welcome from day one. He helped us actually talk to each other again instead of just fighting. Truly life-changing work."
"I was skeptical about therapy — I'll be honest. But Marcus changed everything for me. He's real with you. He doesn't just nod and say 'how does that make you feel' — he challenges you while making you feel completely safe. The work we've done around my anger and my relationship with my kids has been worth every session."
