Therapists in Georgia

I strongly believe in the innate beauty and vast potential of each and every person. As a therapist, my goal is to help my clients see the greatness of who they are as they are now and the true potential of who they can become. I am extremely passionate about my work and have had the great privilege of being witness to the amazing life changes a person can make once they are validated and are able to understand what they are really capable of accomplishing.

Accepting new clients! Private pay. Superbills provided upon request. I've experienced the looping cycle of love vs chaos in narcissistic-codependent relationships.

Are you an individual or couple who struggles with addiction, codependency, or other coping behaviors that have not only stopped helping you but have started to hinder you and your relationships? If you were able to just stop doing those things, then you would have already done that. But so much about our behaviors and interactions is gripped by how we interpreted earlier experiences. Wouldn't you like help getting to the root of why you keep repeating the same unhealthy patterns? While those roots are often deep, it's never too late to start growing in a healthier direction.

I enjoy working with teens, college students, and adults on issues related to perfectionism, people-pleasing, codependency, relationship dynamics, sports performance, and sports injuries. The clients I work with often struggle with underlying feelings of guilt, shame, resentment, anger, burnout, grief, not being enough/good enough, or vulnerability. There's often a general sense of unhappiness and a desire to live a more fulfilled life. If any of this resonates, I’d love to work with you and help you make changes in your life that better align with your values and goals.

*Voted Savannah Magazine's Best Psychotherapist of 2021 and 2023* Seeking treatment to better one's self takes courage, and it can seem quite overwhelming.

I work with clients desiring help with bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety, and trauma issues. I also offer counseling for goals/values clarification, later career/empty nest planning, codependency, relationship stress, and couples/premarital counseling.

It is important to create a safe, non-judgmental environment in which clients may explore, share, and rebuild their own life stories.

I enjoy working with families and individual adults dealing with conflict, codependency, depression, anxiety, some trauma, and life transitions. Each of us is faced with unique challenges, but I believe each family and individual, no matter how broken, also embodies the unique strengths that can be used to overcome these challenges. My role is to walk alongside those I work with to help identify these strengths and restore relationships that will help create lasting change.

My counseling style can be described as warm, empathetic, and accepting. Perhaps you come to therapy with a specific concern and goal in mind or maybe you are seeking counseling due to a general feeling of being stuck and unsatisfied. Whatever issue prompts you to seek help, therapy can provide an intentional place to pause, process emotions, and find clarity about what you need. I have a special passion for working with adults experiencing stress and anxiety and those prone to perfectionism and people-pleasing. Often in my work with clients, we explore the need to honor one's sense of self and establish healthy boundaries.
