As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia, I am dedicated to empowering individuals facing anxiety and depression while teaching essential coping skills. I create a safe space for exploration and growth, utilizing a warm, client-centered approach and evidence-based techniques, including CBT, DBT, and mindfulness practices. Together, we will embark on a journey toward a brighter, more fulfilling future and enhanced life satisfaction.
I will create a warm and welcoming space for you in our first session. We will discuss your current challenges, goals, and concerns, as well as your background and past experiences, so I can understand what brings you to therapy. This session focuses on getting to know you, making sure you feel comfortable, and laying the groundwork for our work together. We will also identify some initial steps to help you reach your goals.
My greatest professional strengths are empathy, creating a safe and supportive environment, and using different therapy methods tailored to each client's needs. I focus on helping clients feel understood while giving them practical, research-based strategies to handle life challenges. I adapt techniques like CBT, DBT, and CFT to meet clients where they are and guide them toward meaningful change and growth.
I empower individuals to overcome anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Together, we will navigate the path to healing by gaining a deep understanding of your emotions and applying practical coping skills. Your healing and growth are my top priorities, and I am dedicated to supporting you at every step of this journey.
Helps clients recognize and shift unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, self-doubt, and avoidance. I've used this approach with hundreds of clients to identify the inner critic, challenge distorted thinking, and replace it with more balanced and empowering thoughts.
Support clients in becoming more aware of how stress, emotions, and distractions show up in their bodies and minds. Since 2012, I've guided clients in grounding techniques, use of breathing techniques, and moment-to-moment awareness practices that foster emotional regulation and reduce rumination.
Have been especially helpful for clients who feel emotionally overwhelmed or stuck in cycles of reacting. I integrate DBT tools such as emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness into sessions in a way that's personalized, practical, and never overwhelming.
