Cornerstone Family Services, LLC Offering OCD Treatment and Therapy in Metro Atlanta, Georgia

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 30, 2013

Cornerstone Family Services, LLC, (http://www.cornerstonefamilyservices.com) a private practice offering outpatient therapy for children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families in Marietta, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, announces the addition of Shala Nicely, MS, LAPC, NCC (http://www.shalanicely.com) to its staff. She is an Associate Counselor focused on the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and related disorders, including Body Dysmorphic Disorder, Hoarding Disorder, Trichotillomania, and Skin Picking Disorder.


Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, or OCD, is estimated to affect 2 to 3 million people in the United States. According to the International OCD Foundation (http://www.ocfoundation.org), individuals with OCD can spend between 14 and 17 years, on average, from the time OCD symptoms begin until they receive effective treatment years of needless suffering and anguish. Effective treatment includes exposure and response prevention therapy, or ERP, a type of cognitive behavioral therapy.


Along with her Master of Science degree in Mental Health Counseling from Mercer University, Nicely has received specialized training in exposure and response prevention therapy. Shala is highly qualified, and we are thrilled she has joined our practice, said Jennifer Vann, LMFT, director of services and therapist at Cornerstone Family Services, LLC. Offering exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP) for people with OCD is vitally important, as there are not nearly enough clinicians offering OCD treatment in Georgia. We look forward to continuing to serve the OCD community through Shalas focus on helping those who have OCD and related disorders. Nicely is under the direction and supervision of Jennifer Vann, LMFT, and under the supervision of Kathleen McKinney Clark, LPC.


Nicely has been active in the OCD community in Georgia for several years, co-founding OCD Georgia (http://www.ocdgeorgia.org), the official Georgia affiliate of the International OCD Foundation, in 2011. She is also Past President and an OCD Spokesperson for OCD Georgia.


Nicelys OCD advocacy work extends to the national level this year, as she will be sharing the story of her triumph over her own OCD, Is Fred in the Refrigerator? as the keynote speaker at the International OCD Foundation conference (http://www.ocd2013.org) being held in Atlanta on July 19 21, 2013. What we love about Shalas keynote is that its a series of enthusiastically-told, engaging stories about her life with OCD, said Carly Bourne, director of communications for the International OCD Foundation. Her stories combine candor, humor, and suspense. Not only will these stories keep audience members on the edge of their seats, but they will also give a real sense of what its like to have OCD and how you can take your life back from the disorder.


The Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA) recently awarded Nicely one of three 2013 Clinician Trainee Awards for her work during her internship. In its commitment to clinical care and training, ADAA's Clinician Trainee Award acknowledges those who have excelled in their performance in an internship or clinical training setting. The award was presented at the 2013 Anxiety and Depression Association of America annual conference in La Jolla, California on April 4 (http://www.adaa.org/resources-professionals/awards/clinician-trainee-awards-winners).

Moments, a weekly blog where she shares aha! moments about OCD sparked by great books.

Juvenis Receives Exclusive Reluma Territories of Georgia, South Carolina, and Eastern Florida from Vestiage


Newport Beach, California (PRWEB) June 11, 2013

Vestiage, Inc. (stock symbol "VEST") a publicly traded anti-aging company focused on science-based research and development, sales and marketing of premium branded highly effective anti-aging cosmeceuticals and nutraceuticals, announced today that it has awarded the key territories of Georgia, South Carolina, and Eastern Florida (Ft. Lauderdale to Jacksonville) to Juvenis Cosmetic Injectables based in Atlanta, Georgia. Juvenis currently covers the region offering well known science-based skin care injectables and skin care products to med spas, physicians, and is expanding its reach into high end salons, resorts, and speciality beauty retail boutiques with the Reluma product.


"Juvenis is precisely the kind of company that Vestiage was looking for to cover large territories and sell the Reluma product to our key customers," said Scott Kimball, CEO of Vestiage. "They have a built in customer base, they know skin care at the highest levels of science, they have an existing sales force, and they want to expand their business. Reluma is a great fit for them, and they are a really great fit for Vestiage."


Reluma is a human stem cell derived facial care brand in which the science, formulation, and ingredients surpass normal facial care products. Using the latest science and ingredients available and manufactured in the USA in laboratories located in California, Reluma acts to help stimulate the production of new skin at the cellular level, signaling human skin receptors with human growth factors created in thee laboratory.


Juvenis CEO Douglas Huber said, "We are very excited about representing the Reluma product line in the Southern USA. We have great relationships with our customers and Reluma can be a great way for us to expand our business and deepen the relationships we already have and bring in new customers."


Kimball, CEO of Vestiage, stated "We have all tried facial care and anti-aging lotions and potions over the years, and the reality is that the vast majority are mostly water, glycerin, mineral oil and other "filler" ingredients. This is why as consumers we have been consistently disappointed by this industry and why so many people have become numb to the stories the industry puts out. With Reluma, the most skeptical clientele become our biggest fans. Our clients know our product is very different almost immediately because they don't get that "watery" feeling from it. You get a feeling that this is a product packed with very rich, luxurious ingredients, elegantly formulated, using the latest science.


The Vestiage Territory Program awards exclusive Vestiage Metropolitan Statistical Areas ("MSA's") to qualified companies or individuals that sell to salons, spas, retailers, resorts and physicians in each MSA territory. Vestiage provides product literature, retail displays, product training, and marketing/sales support. The most lucrative MSA's in major cities are available to the most qualified organizations/individuals and will likely be in very high demand.


"The Reluma line is attractive to the higher rated salons and spas because it utilizes the latest science, the clientele love how it works for them, and financially the salon or spa can make a large amount of money simply by carrying the line and using it in stem cell facials," said Kimball. "The profit from the Reluma line alone can pay the overhead for the entire salon for a year by simply putting 2 women a day onto the Reluma Regimen."


The territories that remain available include: Dallas, Houston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Los Angeles (several), Orange County, California (2), San Francisco Bay Area (2), Seattle, San Diego, Colorado, Arizona, North Carolina, Washington DC/Northern Virginia, and more. For more information on the Vestiage Territory Program, please email your request to info(at)vestiageinc(dot)com or call 949-258-4404 and ask for Garrett Heiser, Vice President of Operations.

Hair Restoration Specialists in Atlanta, Georgia Helps the Development of Light Energy Technology and Its Applications in Health Care

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) May 28, 2013

Hair Restoration Specialists has been and continues to be proud member of the American Society for Laser Medicine & Surgery, Inc. (ASLMS). Last year, ASLMS awarded $ 140,000 to scientists and medical researchers who are working on important laser research projects. An astonishing $ 1.2 million in research grants have been awarded to date. Member contributions, combined with contributions from industry, subsidize the grants awarded by the Research Committee.


Hair Restoration Specialists values our membership with ASLMS, as we find this to be the best avenue for gaining scientific information on the use of lasers. ASLMS is one of the few organizations where all aspects of laser medicine are addressed, including laser safety, physics, tissue interactions, and complication management. In addition to their research fund, they have established a new Advancement of Laser Medicine Endowment Fund that will ensure their efforts to fund research will continue to make a significant difference in improving patient care and their commitment to furthering sustainable, unbiased research.


The new endowment fund honors Dr. Leon Goldman, a Founder of ASLMS. He was an editor, an author and a research extraordinaire. He was an educator whose academic progeny spans many fields and projects on an international scope. Much of the scientific foundation for medical research laser work is attributable to Dr. Goldman. He indeed will always be known as the Father of Laser Medicine.


Hair Restoration Specialists is proud to be a Research Fund Contributor at the Futurist contribution level. We truly believe in supporting the efforts of the ASLMS research program so that it may continue to offer quality research grants. We encourage all nursing/allied health professionals who are involved with lasers in any way to utilize the benefits of belonging to ASLMS.


Hair Restoration Specialists remains at the forefront of the medical community placing as much emphasis on the artistry of hair transplantation as on the science of the procedure. Hair Restoration Specialists is located right outside I-285 at 6065 Roswell Road, Suite 300, Atlanta, Georgia 30328, which is less than half of a mile off the interstate. Hair Restoration Specialists also offers online and phone consultations throughout the United States.
