I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Georgia. I have 23 years of experience working with and helping those with mental health issues. I have a Master's Degree in Rehabilitation Counseling and a Graduate Certificate in Psychiatric Rehabilitation. As a result of traumatic experiences and other factors from my childhood, I battled with addiction and my own mental health issues (anxiety and depression) for many years. I have been abstinent from all drugs and alcohol since 2010 and have been able to reduce my anxiety and depression to low level where I am able to function and live a rather content lifestyle. I would like the opportunity to use my own personal experiences combined with my educational learning to help you achieve the same or better mental well being than I have achieved.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Our first session, generally, will consist of me asking numerous questions to help me gain insight into the problem (s) you are presenting, which will help us determine which route to take in treating you and getting you better.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I enjoy working with people who have any type of addiction to anything. I like working with those newly abstinent from drugs and/or alcohol-to help them learn how to just live life. I also like working with people who have mood disorders (ex. depression, bipolar, etc), anxiety disorders, and trauma related issues.
