Hi! I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Sex Therapist in Augusta, GA. I have two masters degrees in counseling, one from Marist College in Poughkeepsie, NY, and the other from Augusta University. I currently see mostly couples who are dealing with relationship issues and women who are getting out of abusive relationships.

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

In our first session, I won't talk much because I want to hear from you about what's going on in your life or your relationship, and what you want to change. I want you to feel heard and understood, so you know that I am here to help you reach your goals, not what goals I think you should reach.

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

My greatest strength as a therapist is that I am outside of your life so I can see the forest and the trees. I can help you see things in a new way and make connections about yourself that you may not be able to do so you can better understand why you make the choices you do and how to make different ones. I have ADHD and I often call it my super power because people with ADHD can really see patterns, and that what I do with my clients, I help them see the patterns int heir lives that are not working for them, and come up with new ones.

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

I love working with couples that want to make their relationships work, but things have happened, which could mean anything from infidelity to they feel like after the kids they lost the spark and are looking to get that back, or maybe they feel like everytime they start talking to each other it ends in fight. I also love working with women who are trying to understand the patterns in their lives that don't serve them, and how to break out of those. I am EMDR trained and love the way even one session of EMDR can change someone's life.
