Beginning in 2022, having adapted to the covid pandemic challenges and fully incorporated telemental health (TMH) practices to his work with clients, Bates transitioned to full TMH mode and ended his physical presence with Sage Center Atlanta. In Fall 2023, Sage Center Atlanta also transitioned to full TMH mode and no longer sees clients at their former Henderson Mill Road location.
Bates is currently limiting his client caseload through mysaturdaytherapist.com but welcomes inquiries from anyone interested in potential work together. Check the Making Contact page at this site for contact information.
