Hi my name is Twan and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am dually licensed in the states of Alabama and Georgia. I have been in the counseling profession for over a decade and being able to help others as been very rewarding. I help adults utilize identifiable resources on becoming aware of self by helping them to resolve barriers to personal growth. Even as a therapist, I too take care of my own mental health and well-being by having a trusted therapist for myself.
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

As a therapist, I use this treatment method to provide a nonjudgmental environment conducive to honest self-exploration.
A short-term goal-focused evidence-based therapeutic approach, which helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on problems.
