Calhoun, GA 30703 (Online Only)
My therapy is client focused. I see them virtually. This gives them the opportunity to receive counseling at home, office or any place they have WiFi and privacy. I ask them to share why they came for counseling and listen intently in the attempt to understand their problems and why they are seeking help. Are they court ordered or did they come on their own. Then I conduct the assessment they need or a short assessment to identify their problem and focus on their issues. I assess the need for medication and recommend them if needed. My PhD is in Counseling Psychology.

According to Victor Frankl, "When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves." When we get tired of symptoms, situations and stress, we look for ways to alleviate our suffering. I collaborate with individuals, couples and families to work through problems to find healthy solutions so that they can live the life they were meant to live.

I have been working in recovery for seven years and have seen a wide range of issues related to addiction. Addiction in itself can be a traumatic event as it causes us to go against our morals. Addiction often contributes to shame and can produce anger, anxiety, depression and other struggles. I have created individualized treatment plans for every issue my clients have presented with as related to addiction. Each client has a different set of needs and goals so I take a person-centered approach to best serve. It's important to identify our strengths and capitalize on these rather than only focusing on the problem.

I do my best work with people who have experienced years of disappointment and hurt. Many of my clients struggle with divorce, drug use, family problems, childhood hurts, church hurt, bullying, sexual abuse, bereavement, guilt, low self-esteem, and trauma. Many of my clients have been in therapy for more than three years and have, for the most part, given up on treatment because they do not feel that it has helped them. I work well with people who feel no one cares about them and want to give up.

How does positive psychology therapy work?
Positive psychology therapy derives from the work of Martin Seligman of the University of Pennsylvania. He and others developed the field of positive psychology building on humanistic theory. Positive psychology therapy is similar to acceptance and commitment therapy, and it essentially quiets emotional distress through positivity, contentment, and well-being. This therapy does not reduce the individual to symptoms and conditions.
When do I know if I need treatment using positive psychology?
If an individual is overwhelmed by emotional distress and general negativity, they may feel trapped. A positive psychology therapist can help them view their emotions and behaviors differently, and approach life with a better understanding of their positive strengths. This therapy can provide an individual with the coping skills needed for a healthier and more constructive life.
What should I expect from positive psychology therapy?
The patient may be asked to explore their signature strengths. The therapist will also ask the individual to talk about their goals, which should be specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and timely. Discussing negative experiences and symptoms is important, but so is the exploration of positive experiences. The objective is to identify and lessen negative thoughts and behaviors and move toward optimal health and productivity. The individual will see life in a more positive and fulfilling way. This therapy is proactive and may use forgiveness, gratitude, hope, and compassion to help reframe negativity.
Is positive psychology effective in therapy?
Positive psychology therapy is evidence-based and effective. One study found that people with eating disorders benefit from this type of intervention. This therapy encourages the person to reframe their distressed thoughts and move into healthier patterns of functioning. This therapy also aims to move an individual toward what works well in their life. Positive psychology therapy can elicit lifelong change, with higher levels of satisfaction, less stress, as well as positive emotional and behavioral habits.
