Javhan Cosby

Clinical Therapist

 

I work with individuals and couples navigating relationship stress, emotional disconnection, and life transitions. My approach is direct, grounded, and compassionate—creating space for honest conversations and meaningful change.
With couples, I help partners who feel unheard, stuck in repetitive conflict, or weighed down by unresolved perpetual issues. I specialize in rebuilding communication, restoring trust, and guiding couples through the impact of betrayal and infidelity. Together, we work to break unhealthy cycles and strengthen emotional safety and understanding.
I have a strong focus on working with Black men who are navigating emotional regulation, emotional awareness, and relational challenges. Many men—especially Black men—have not always been given the space or tools to identify, process, and express their emotions in healthy ways. I help clients build emotional vocabulary, improve self-control, and develop healthier ways to communicate and connect—without shame or judgment.
My goal is to help clients build stronger relationships, deeper self-awareness, and lasting change.

Javhan is under supervision and direction of Anthony Potter, LMFT-LPC.

In 2019, he shifted his career and pursued a Master of Science degree in Marriage & Family Therapy from Mercer University.  

 

Mark began his career in mental health inspired by a passion for love, people, and community.  He has always desired a career of service, and while the disciplines of accounting and therapy are very different, they both involve service to people.  In addition to his graduate degree studies at Mercer, Mark has additional professional training in Emotion-Focused Therapy, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, the Gottman Method Couples Therapy, and Prepare/Enrich for premarital couples. Mark is experienced in helping couples communicate more effectively and bringing out the best in each other.  For Mark, using an honest and positive approach to communication and understanding while emphasizing accountability helps couples achieve their desired outcomes.
