Hello, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Georgia and have been in practice for the past three years. I earned my master’s degree from Ashford University. I maintain a high level of cultural sensitivity and have extensive experience working with veterans, adults and adolescents in the areas of substance use, behavior management, and mental health challenges.

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

In our first session together, we will start with a brief introduction. Next, we will plunge into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help me tailor a plan for us to work through the follow-up session.

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

I have worked in different roles in a residential and outpatient setting, within the mental health field, and directly with adults and adolescents for over 15 years. This experience led me to identify and feel that my greatest strengths are listening, empathy, interpersonal problem-solving, compassion, communication, and critical thinking.

My treatment methods

Daialectical Behavior (DBT)

I've been using DBT in my practice for the past few years. Using this technique, you may learn to accept yourself, and changing your behavior might feel contradictory. I have received training from the State of Georgia Mental Health Department on dialectical behavior therapy.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I’ve been using CBT in my practice for the past five years. It’s helped with dozens of clients' challenges, recurring thoughts, and managing their anxiety. We will use CBT to recognize how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other. We will then use the results to change your thinking patterns and lead a less anxious and stressful life.

Motivational Interviewing

I’ve been using motivational interviewing in my practice for the past 10 years. It’s helped dozens of clients' challenges, reoccurring thoughts, and relapse preventions, which consequently have allowed them to stay in recovery.

Person-centered (Rogerian)

I’ve been using CBT in my practice for the past 15 years. It’s helped with dozens of clients’ challenges, reoccurring thoughts, and managing symptoms related to their diagnoses. My primary focus during each session will be to ensure clients’ goals are focused and clients' skills are being developed.

Psychoeducation

Using different treatment modalities, I have learned to incorporate psychoeducation worksheets and techniques. For example, clients may use dairy cards along with skill worksheets related to dialectical behavior therapy.
