Positive Psychology Therapists in Chamblee, GA

I am passionate about supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals who may be experiencing depression, anxiety, identity exploration and development, understanding neurodivergence, trauma, and navigating the stressors of life as someone with multiple intersections of identity. I am also poly and kink aware and welcome clients from these populations. As a transgender, neurodivergent, lesbian, and geeky woman, I am familiar with the struggles that queer people have living in the south. I am also able to help people with ADHD and Autism and also help parents of people with ADHD and Autism.

As a super femme, queer, creative, fat and multiracial person, I have the lived experience and understanding of what it means to move through a world that feels like it was not designed for you. I understand just how exhausting and frustrating navigating these multiple marginalized identities can feel. I enjoy working with clients who are “plus sized”, from diverse cultures and backgrounds, who struggle with their body image, and who identify with the LGBTQ+ community. I would also love to help guide any fellow fat new parents on their parenting journey!

Are you depressed? Do you feel alone in a room full of people? Do you find yourself wanting to cry but not knowing why? My favorite quote is, "The opposite of depression is not happiness, but vitality" and I wholeheartedly believe in it. Depression does not discriminate. I specialize in depression treatment among different populations- infertility, perinatal mood disorders, older adults, and midlife adults. Another speciality includes caregiving and different types of grief. You don't have to do this alone. I believe therapy makes the world a better place and you are brave for seeking help.

If you are here, you are considering taking an important step towards your own personal development. The complexities of our world today can leave you feeling pulled in so many different directions, leaving little time and space for reflection and self-care. Therapy is an investment in your own self-care and the therapeutic relationship can provide the ideal environment for self- exploration and sorting things out. I look forward to working with you to uncover your true potential to attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing.

Therapy is the journey of discovery, acceptance, and expression. It is a relationship built on open communication and trust; a place to feel understood and valued. Reaching out is truly a leap of faith. Everyone experiences suffering in one way or another and everyone needs help to survive. We are in this together. Connection to ourselves, others, and the world is the gateway to change. Lets connect and change our lives!

I look forward to working alongside you on your personal goals whether it be coping better with anxiety or depression, setting better boundaries with your friends and family, or supporting along your grief journey. I have experience in several areas including: foster children, foster/adoptive parents, sexual assault survivors, medically fragile children and their caregivers, and individuals at end of life.

Are you feeling stuck in your head and struggle to be present in your day to day experiences? Living with constant worry and stress can negatively impact our quality of life. While it is understandable that negative thoughts and feelings might creep up, I want you to know there are multiple paths to fostering peace! With a little self-exploration, self-compassion and therapeutic work, it is possible for you to learn how to overcome negative experiences that impact your life and increase your overall fulfillment. I strive to provide an environment where my clients can find peace and freedom from whatever challenges they may face.

Congratulations! You have made the most important step to living a more fulfilling and purposeful life! Searching for a therapist can be difficult especially on top of everything you already have going on. You should feel proud of yourself for making the first step. Are you overwhelmed or struggling with a new life stressor? Do you find yourself anxious or constantly worried? Maybe you want to understand more about the way you adjust to difficult or painful experiences. Life transitions can change what we believe about ourselves and the world around us. They can leave us with negative beliefs about ourselves and others.
