About Fulani
Dr. Fulani Doughty is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing from Georgia with 17 years of experience. He works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, ADHD, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, grief, and codependency. He also addresses parenting and caregiver stress and issues related to adoption and blended families.
He uses straightforward, person-focused work in sessions. He combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices. That means conversations focus on what matters to the client, practical skill building, and noticing how thoughts and habits affect feelings and behavior.
Background in education and rehabilitation informs his approach. He has experience in public education and school counseling and has worked across age groups in behavioral health since 2003. His training includes counseling, rehabilitation, and organizational development, and he keeps those perspectives in mind when problem solving with clients.
Sessions tend to balance listening with concrete steps. People can expect guided reflection, practical tools for setting limits and managing stress, and attention to patterns that underlie relationship struggles like people-pleasing or codependent behaviors. He also brings experience addressing substance use and co-occurring conditions.
He maintains a private practice in Georgia and combines clinical work with teaching and consulting. Language of work is English and international clients are not accepted at this time.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered work puts the client's concerns first by listening and reflecting back what matters most. Online sessions can replicate that by keeping conversation focused, clarifying goals, and checking in on what feels most helpful in each meeting.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in an online session emphasizes practical skill building. That might include identifying thought patterns, trying small behavioral experiments between sessions, and practicing new ways to respond to stress or relationship triggers.
Mindfulness-based methods introduce simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve sleep and mood. These techniques translate easily to remote sessions and can be practiced between meetings to reinforce changes.
Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That includes adjusting techniques as progress is made and checking in regularly about what is useful.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online meetings helpful because they reduce travel, can fit into a workday break, and make it easier to follow up on homework or practice skills between sessions. Ask about specific session types when scheduling so arrangements match practical needs.
