About me

I am a passionate Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of both Georgia and Maryland. I have been licensed as a Professional School Counselor in the State of Georgia for the past 20+ years. I am a newly licensed provider in the State of Maryland. I enjoy working with a wide range of educational, personal, and professional issues providing services that span across a wide spectrum.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

My method of therapy is eclectic, because I do not believe there is a one size fits all approach to therapy. I believe in focusing on a personal approach that works best for each of my client’s personality and presenting issue. I meet each client right where they are to assist them in achieving growth, change, and joy in their lives and relationships.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

As a therapist my strengths come from 20+ years of experience in the counseling arena. I am an empathetic listener, I hold each client in unconditional regard, and I am respectful of everyone’s individual process.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

As a therapist, I seek to provide the kind of mental health services that I would want available for my family member and even myself. I have extensive experience working with adults, children and teens struggling with anxiety, depression, educational issues, identity exploration ,PTSD & Trauma, racial & oppression-based traumatic stress, and relationship concerns.

Eclectic

My treatment can be best described as eclectic. No two sessions will ever be the same because they are tailored to fit the exact needs of my clients. I believe in meeting my clients where they are; therefore, a variety of disciplines may be utilized in each session.

Asmarett is a great listener and she offers great feedback and insight. She makes suggestions but lets you know that the ultimate decision is yours. I would strongly recommend her to couples and individuals who are willing to make a positive change!

She’s truly amazing and I’m grateful to have her in my life. I’ve come such a long way from our first session. She’s patient, warm, and great at making someone feel comfortable enough to fully open up. I THANK YOU!
