I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor in the Marietta/Kennesaw area in Georgia. I have been in private practice working with primarily trauma since 2008. I specialize in treating trauma... things that have happened to you that shouldn't have happened. As a result of trauma, our way of thinking and behaving changes in order to protect us. Unfortunately, those changes are often things we don't like. I love helping clients figure out and resolve the trauma that is at the root of their problems.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, I'll go over the limitations of confidentiality and gather some history including what is bringing you into counseling.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

My greatest strength as a provider is my ability to connect with and understand what is going on with you specifically. I am also unfailingly hopeful and willing to do the work to accomplish your goals.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I love working with clients that have not been successful in therapy. They want to make changes, but have been unable to accomplish those changes or make them stick.
