Career Counseling Therapists in Decatur, GA

I love working with people from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and experiences. As we are all overcoming the pandemic(s), new strategies for thinking about living our best lives are on the forefronts of our minds. I would like to be your conversational partner as you consider the changes you see yourself making in the next 5-10 years. I work with individuals, couples, families, groups, and even do team-building consultation within work settings.

I am a licensed psychologist with 20+ yrs of experience. My practice focuses on working with women at major transition points in their lives. I believe we come into this world with unique gifts that provide a framework for who we are. That framework is further shaped - in both healthy & painful ways - by life experiences with family, peers, loved ones, work, identity, & society. Psychotherapy offers the opportunity to understand how we've come to be the person we are today, make peace with the past, recognize our unique gifts, and move into the future with a clearer vision of the life we want to create and how to get there.

I form a therapeutic relationship with my clients to help them deal with the issues they present. I draw on my years of experience and training to create the most effective treatment. Most of my clients experience relief within weeks of beginning therapy. Depending on the depth of the issues presented therapy can last a few months to a few years. Trust is the foundation and insight the main tool to create positive and long lasting change. I work with my clients to find what is best for them and support them in making the changes they want.

Sometimes life gets hard and you need clarity to "recharge". I work with families and individuals to provide them with the necessary tools to create an open environment of understanding. Through individual & family therapy and life coaching, I assist clients in working through issues such as anxiety, self-esteem, anger management, educational goals, and self-image. I provide a variety of techniques (emotional regulation, coping skills, and thought-stopping techniques) to allow you to be a better advocate for yourself and to let others know how you want to be treated.

You've been struggling to keep up with the demands of your life. You've been comparing yourself to others and wondering if you're overexaggerating your problems. You're starting to wonder if healing is even possible for you. But what if I told you that I know a secret about you? One that other people in your life know, but that you clearly do not.... YOU are the HERO of your own story.

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of your purpose in life? Are you hurt and unsure if you are ready to move on, but just can’t seem to uncover a new path? Some people just need someone to listen, get their experience, and understand how life is for them. You may have tried the same old things, which don’t seem to be working anymore. It’s often hard to ask for help, and seems a bit strange if you haven't been to therapy before.

For you, therapy is a mirror which allows you to see the best in you as well. Clinically, through the utilization of various evidenced-based clinical modalities, your wholeness, happiness, and peace is attainable. Through therapeutic insight, self-approval, heightened perspective, and authoritative self-shifting, your desire to be the best you is truly possible. It is the aligning of effective therapy approaches, safe and secure emotional refuge, and strength based collaboration that I am certain that your best life experiences can be realized.

At any given moment you can make the decision to live the life you desire. When we avoid addressing our past and present issues, we may develop unhealthy thinking patterns, behaviors and ways of coping that we don't even recognize. & although we may not recognize that these things are happening, it can easily lead to confusion, self doubt, anxiety, fear and even sadness. Healing and transformation are easier said than done and there is nothing wrong with connecting to a professional you can identify with to help you with the process.
