Where exceptional psychological care meets a holistic approach to living well.
Every new chapter brings an opportunity for growth, renewal, and transformation. Just as life’s transitions invite us to discover new possibilities, Positive Living Psychotherapy is embracing an exciting new beginning of its own. After more than two decades of helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges and pursue greater fulfillment, the practice is celebrating its relocation from Alpharetta to a beautiful, serene setting at 3815 Ryans Bluff Drive in Cumming, Georgia.
Founded in 2005 by licensed clinical psychologist Dr. Maureen Keown, Psy.D., Positive Living Psychotherapy continues its commitment to helping people not simply feel better, but live better. Combining evidence-based mental health treatment with the principles of positive psychology, the practice offers a strengths-based, integrative approach that extends beyond symptom management to foster resilience, self-awareness, meaningful relationships, and personal growth.
At the heart of this philosophy is a dedicated team of professionals whose complementary expertise provides compassionate, individualized care addressing both mental health and overall wellness.
