ABOUT MENDED SOUL SOLUTIONS
Built from the inside.
Designed for what comes next.
Mended Soul Solutions is a licensed clinical social work enterprise operating across five interconnected areas of work — each grounded in the same conviction, delivered by clinicians who share it.
What we believe.
Most people are not struggling because something is wrong with them. They are struggling because their environments are depleting them — demanding that they mask, perform, and pretend until there is nothing left for the life they actually want to live. Some environments were never designed for certain people to succeed in — no matter how they showed up or how hard they tried.
Mended Soul Solutions works at the intersection of both truths. Naming what the environment has cost. Reclaiming what belongs to the person. And building something more intentional from what remains.
This conviction is not a tagline. It is the organizing principle of every service, every session, and every piece of work that leaves this practice. Radical validation of what the environment has demanded — and radical accountability for what the person builds from here. Both things. Always both.
Five areas of work. One conviction.
Mended Soul Solutions is not a single service. It is an ecosystem of connected work — clinical, programmatic, educational, and community-based — built around the same honest foundation.
The clinical heart of Mended Soul Solutions.
Individual and couples therapy delivered by clinicians who share a common conviction. Private pay. Limited caseload. Currently accepting new clients.
THE COLLECTIVE
The private, premium tier.
Clinical support, case management, curated resources, and professional guidance built entirely around the individual — for professionals whose mental health privacy carries professional consequence. Inquiries by referral and direct contact.
BESPOKE
The program and systems division.
Structured clinical programs for courts, agencies, organizations, and institutions. Forensic assessments. Court-affiliated clinical programs. Community-based behavioral health initiatives. Where MSS works with systems, not just the individuals navigating them.
MENDED IMPACT
The creative and educational workshop.
Psychoeducational programming, professional development and training, clinical supervision, workshops, support groups, devotionals, and self-paced resources built around the M.E.N.D.E.D.™ framework. For individuals, clinicians, and organizations. Launching 2027!
ATELIER
The community arm.
A space where the M.E.N.D.E.D.™ philosophy meets the communities that need it most — built with them, not delivered to them. The foundation for Rooted and M.E.N.D.E.D. — a nonprofit community initiative currently in development. Launching 2027!
THE COMMONS
Cherysh Caldwell, LCSW, MSW, MPA, CPM
FOUNDER & OWNER
Cherysh Caldwell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Georgia and Alabama, and the founder and owner of Mended Soul Solutions, LLC. She holds a Master of Social Work, a Master of Public Administration, and a Certified Public Manager credential — a combination that reflects not an unusual career path but a deliberate one.
Her professional life has been lived at the intersection of people and systems. She has more than thirteen years of executive administrative experience — having served as a nonprofit executive director, court administrator, accountability court director, city manager, and county manager. Her background also includes experience as a certified law enforcement officer and educator. She has practiced as a licensed social worker for nine years. She understands the people who live within these environments, those affected by them, and those working to change them professionally.
Mended Soul Solutions was built from that experience. From the inside of the systems it now helps people navigate.
Sessions are direct, warm, and purposeful. The work is designed to produce real, measurable change in a defined period — not indefinite maintenance.
Cherysh lives and works in rural South Georgia. She has been married for sixteen years, is the mother of seven, and a grandmother. Her personal life is not separate from her professional philosophy — it is evidence of it.
