If you experience frequent obsessive-compulsive behaviors, anxiety, depressed feelings or you feel, you and your spouse are growing apart in your relationship, it can cause severe distress and disruption in daily life, affecting your well-being. Making choices and finding meaning in life may have become difficult. In my private practice, I focus on individual treatment and couples counseling. I like to offer a strength-based and person-centered approach. In a collaborative therapeutic relationship, we will work together for you to reach your goals for therapy and learn how to use your strengths towards healing and personal growth.

Does your child struggle to communicate feelings, misunderstand social cues, or manage intense emotions? Is your child impulsive, has trouble completing tasks, or suffers from sensory overload? These challenges can leave them feeling isolated, dampen their self-esteem, and strain their family and peer systems. If you or your child are looking for a compassionate and skilled therapist to navigate the journey of being or feeling different, I am here to help. I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating the unique challenges associated with developmental differences, such as ADHD and Autism.

For over thirty years it has been a privilege to guide individuals, couples and families in becoming more authentically engaged in their lives, and fulfilled in their relationships, goals and dreams. I am an engaged,flexible and active therapist,trained in many therapeutic approaches. I help each individual to recognize and mobilize all of their emotional, cognitive, physical, social and spiritual resources in our work together.

Since you are here, you may want change in your life, relief, and healing. Wanting more for yourself is adaptive. Seeking help is healthy. By reaching out for support, you are bringing yourself closer to the relief and change that you desire. I use an integrative approach to therapy to help people harness adaptive parts of themselves in the service of letting go of unhelpful, self-destructive, and repetitive behaviors and achieving relief, happiness, and lasting change. This occurs within a collaborative, empowering, and respectful relationship between us that involves authentic compassion, warmth, transparency, and nonjudgment.

There’s more to life than just working and caring for others. You struggled to build this life for yourself, but now there’s little joy in it. You feel disconnected, alone. You yearn to do more than just survive. You want to explore new parts of yourself, deepen your relationships, and find new energy for life. How can you get there when right now your plate is so full you’re barely making it through the day? Things can get better. I will walk with you through this time of awakening and help you refocus on your own needs as you journey toward the life you want. A life full of authenticity and connection.

Whether you are pregnant, new to Motherhood, a seasoned parent, or struggling with body image - you may be experiencing feelings of loneliness, anxiety, fear, identity crisis, or trauma. You may feel as though you’ve lost control, as both your body and seemingly your whole life have changed. Are you told to “enjoy every minute” or “bounce back after birth”? These unwelcomed pressures can also add to our feelings of guilt and shame. I am here to support you. Know you are not alone. Together, we will use mindfulness practices, imagery, and therapeutic strategies to help you be present, release self-doubt, and cultivate confidence.

I have focused my career on providing services and working with clients suffering from various forms of trauma. I work with survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and adult survivors of childhood abuse. My clients are resilient people who are willing to make changes in their lives by making the choices to put themselves first in their lives, making healthy decisions for themselves, and work on their own self worth. My clients are folks who embrace their humanness and gather the courage to work through their toxic emotions such as shame and guilt that hold them back.

Welcome! We may be a good fit for therapy if you or your family are looking for support with disordered eating, body image issues, family communication, anxiety, or depression. I work with children as young as 10 and love involving family through either family therapy sessions or collaboration as I work with a young person individually. If you are a parent overwhelmed with supporting your child's mental health needs, I can also help with outlining options for levels of care and supporting your child as they step up or down in levels of care.

Book with me now by clicking on my website! I am a LPC in GA who is passionate about being a therapist and actually feels called to it. I believe that we all deserve to live a meaningful and fulfilled life, where we feel Accepted, Heard, Seen, Cared For, and Valued. I have a genuine interest and curiosity about people, about how we became the people that we are, who and what influenced are decisions, what we believe, and how they contribute to the ways we think, feel and act. I am zealous about helping people know and appreciate who they are, and not just what people and experiences have conditioned them to believe they should be.

I work with individuals ages 14+ experiencing a myriad of clinical concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, and grief. Additionally, I have a passion for working with individuals overcoming complex trauma as well as sexual abuse. Some of my other clinical experiences include working with substance use, HIV/AIDS, eating disorders, and suicidal ideation. Many of my clients are seeking out culturally sensitive care where their identities are given the space to be seen and heard. During our time together we will work on building awareness of thought patterns, beliefs, and narratives that no longer serve you.

Mental, physical and emotional distress often contain important clues to imbalance in your life. Learning to listen to yourself, with the active support of a trusted therapeutic relationship, can help you to become unstuck and live with greater ease. With this support, you are able to understand the interplay of the thoughts, feelings and behaviors that contribute to the distress in your life. You begin to find hope when recognizable patterns emerge. Hope grows when these patterns are understood and accepted in the context of your past experiences. Change occurs with ongoing feedback, practice and encouragement.

If you are a client seeking therapy for anxiety, or because of post-traumatic or dissociative symptoms, then I would be a good fit for you. Therapy is a collaborative process where we work together to determine what you need. I used both cognitive behavioral and psychodynamic approaches in therapy. Cognitive behavioral therapy addresses changing thoughts and behaviors that could be contributing to symptoms. Psychodynamic therapy explores the origin of symptoms.

I have been a therapist for nearly 40 years and continue to enjoy working with people who desire to make their lives more satisfying and fulfilling. We all have beliefs and patterns of behavior which do not serve us well, and might actually make us more miserable. I know that these beliefs and behaviors are our attempt to make things better, but that they are no longer useful. I also know that they can be changed with effort and patience.

Are you ready for a change? Art therapy may be right for you. It is not always easy to express our feelings with words alone. There are many challenges life throws at us, but sometimes we can work through them best by doing what comes naturally - creating. In my experience everyone is a born creator. I can help you use art and artistic expression to confront your deepest fears and begin the process of healing. You may be stronger than you think.

Having issues with an addiction, if your court mandated for mental health, anger managment, theft management or domistic violence then you'll need a certificate to show your probation or parole. I provide services for individual's seeking legal compliance and want to get out of trouble with the law. You will learn healthy ways to deal with anger and theft as well as its triggers. You will learn to identify urges and cravings and when you're becoming angry, understanding why, and finding constructive ways to express yourself instead of acting out.

Everyone deserves the opportunity to thrive. I work to help clients achieve psychological wellness and experience their lives with a sense of peace, satisfaction, and hope. I promote clients' ability to identify their goals, achieve them, and ultimately create the life they want. I use various cognitive behavioral strategies to promote strengths, while empowering clients to recognize, understand, and adaptively manage life's challenges. I know that life is challenging - full of highs and lows. I also know that within the context of supportive relationships and with sincere efforts, people can thrive.

The personal development work we do together gets to the source of your discomfort and unwanted behaviors. Insights gained through our inquiry and conversation give you new ways of creating a life of your choosing. I love working with clients who are committed to creating better relationships, and a deeply satisfying life. It is a privilege to do this work. I honor you for the courage and commitment it takes to do deep personal self-care. The path to wholeness takes many steps, and you can go far with this life, when you actively choose. Are you someone who has challenges in relationship or feels out of control with a behavior?
