Pregnancy, Prenatal, Postpartum Therapists in 30030

Women in all stages of life have unique challenges. At Women's Wellness Atlanta I provide specialized, holistic, care for women in every stage of their adult years. I have specialized training and interests in providing reproductive mental health care for those who are considering building a family, trying to conceive, navigating fertility treatments, managing pregnancy loss, managing postpartum mood challenges, and those navigating the physical, emotional, and spiritual changes associated with perimenopause and menopause. I am here to support women in leading intentional lives no matter what stage they find themselves.

For over 35 years, as both a fertility psychologist and OB/GYN with a strong interest in infertility, I have loved helping people on their fertility journey. Are you on a fertility journey? Have you experienced obstacles along the way? Perhaps nothing is as disempowering as struggling with fertility. For many of us, issues with fertility mark the first time that we've wanted our bodies to do something that they seem not capable of doing. Challenges with fertility are traumatic experiences. Is it any wonder why we may be struggling?

Welcome. I commend you for embarking on your journey of self-discovery. Change is a constant in life, and transitional periods can often bring about self-doubt, anxiety, depression, and feelings of grief and loss. As your therapist, my objective is to assist you in navigating these challenging times and finding a path forward.

I work with clients who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD, or who are going through challenging life transitions. I also specialize in treating perinatal mental health concerns. The clients I work with are typically looking for coping skills that they can use to navigate life's challenges. I use evidence-based treatments that are supported by research, while also working to create a warm and supportive therapy environment. In addition to my work as a therapist, I'm a part-time instructor at Georgia State University, where I teach doctoral students in clinical psychology.

I love working with adults of all ages and have a heart for supporting women through their journey into motherhood, both pre- and post-partum. I love getting to know people from different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives than my own and engage in ongoing training to do my very best to serve our diverse community well. I provide individual therapy for adults, as well as skills-based DBT groups.

My practice supports adults in mindfully navigating the challenges of depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and difficult life transitions, including the transition to parenthood. I enjoy working with parents as they navigate difficult moments and phases of their parenting journey and am passionate about helping mothers in the perinatal period, including trying to conceive, pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition to motherhood. For all of us, there are moments in life when things feel like “too much.” These moments are worthy of our attention.

Are you in search of support? Perhaps you need help identifying and working through things that are keeping you from feeling content in your life? Maybe you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, depleted, or just not yourself. I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where you can safely explore yourself and the issues troubling you. It is my mission to help you navigate experiences and challenges within your life, in a way that is both meaningful and oriented with your personal goals, in order to foster healing and growth, as you see it! Feeling unsure about your personal goals? We can work on defining those, too! Let's begin!

You've been thinking about reaching out to a therapist for a while now, but it feels so hard to find someone who's a good fit. You've searched the internet looking for a therapist that you can relate with. Maybe you've even reached out to a therapist or two only to find that they are not taking new clients, or worse, they never even called you back. Finding help shouldn't be this hard! Whether you are looking for a couples therapist to help navigate a difficult time with your partner, or if you are coming to therapy on your own because you haven't been feeling like yourself and you could use a little extra help, we are here for you.

The future may not feel bright right now. You may be overcome by a feeling of hopelessness that seems like it will last forever. The death of a loved one, the loss of your identity, or loneliness might feel all-consuming. Let the part of you that wants things to be different help you to reach out. I am here to provide a safe space to be heard, to be supported, and to help you identify your unique gifts and strengths. Together we can collaborate to restore balance to your life and let some of the light back in.

There are many reasons why you might be seeking therapy at this very moment. It could be because of a major life event- a death, a cancer diagnosis, the end of a relationship, or trauma. It could be because of a lot of small things that have accumulated over time. It could be preventative or restorative. Or it could be just because. You might be therapy-curious, or wonder if you even need therapy. Whatever has brought you to this point, I believe that the most important part of a therapeutic relationship is connection. Our first session is an opportunity to get to know each other and see whether we both feel like it’s the right fit.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor. I graduated from Mercer University with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. After 5 years of working in community mental health both at the inpatient and outpatient levels I have gained invaluable experience working with individuals from multicultural backgrounds. My experience includes treating individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, grief, postpartum, racial issues, substance abuse, and more.

I can often participate in behavioral health symposiums throughout the country and advocate for supporting marriage, strengthening single-parent homes, and military and veteran families, educating young parents, and promoting collectivism for the community’s wellbeing.

Life is all about relationships. Relationships with ourselves, our loved ones, and our community. While relationships can often bring us great joy, they can also generate feelings of anxiety, depression, and uncertainty. Through our therapeutic partnership, I will help you build the skills to better manage these disruptive feelings and gain insight into your behaviors, ultimately allowing you to find balance and fulfillment.

Have you been dealing with trauma, PTSD, guilt & shame, panic attacks, anxiety, or phobias? I use a gentle, effective therapy approach that can provide healing without the need to relive the emotional pain of the past. As a trauma specialist, I work with rape survivors, veterans, police and other first responders, and clients with trauma from childhood abuse, domestic violence, traumatic childbirth, car accidents, and other traumatic events.
