Are you tired of feeling like you're dealing with your emotions on your own? Having a hard time finding a therapist that “gets it?” Well, look no further! You’ve found someone who’s ready to show up and get stuff done! I believe in the power of laughter, joy, and a sprinkle of fun, even when dealing with serious matters. I’m not your average therapist - this isn’t like what you see on tv - nah, I’ll be real, honest and down-to-earth (and might even cuss a little). I have a special interest in a few populations that make me a little different from others, and I also love working with motivated folks who are ready to get their anxiety and depression under control. Read on to learn more about me and let’s get started!

Life happens. In the most challenging moments, it helps to have a therapist who is prepared to help you navigate life's challenges with a holistic perspective. I have years of experience helping clients navigate difficult individual and couple pressures associated with communication, anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal conflict, and grief. At its best, therapy explores the intersection of one's mind (thoughts and emotions), body (physical responses), and spirit (sense of meaning and purpose). My approach to therapy is oriented toward the 'whole self'. I journey with clients to discover healthier paths and meaningful life change. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia. I received dual master's degrees from Mercer University and a doctorate from Emory University, and I have been practicing for 18 years. I help adults struggling with life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, and personal growth find a better way forward.

I am a master’s level licensed clinical mental health counselor (LMHC), (LPC) and credentialed SUD Counselor (CASAC-A) (CADC II) with training and expertise in both Cognitive Behavior Therapy as well as psychodynamic treatment. I work with young adults and adults and have expertise in treating patients with depression, anxiety, PTSD, compulsive, addictive behaviors and domestic violence. I have specialized training in various evidence-based treatments for trauma such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I hope to help patients learn effective ways to cope with stress, manage difficult emotions and communicate well with others. We have all acquired ways of coping that get in the way of our development, and manifest as emotional pain, such as anxiety and depression. I work with clients to identify and reduce these painful symptoms. Clients are then freer to use their energy in pursuit of their goals. I work with young, midlife, and older adults. I develop a safe and collaborative relationship with clients. In that context, I do short and long-term psychotherapy and train clients to use specific protocols to modify symptoms that are in the way of personal and professional functioning. My approach provides support, guidance, and education to help you become the best version of yourself and work towards achieving your goals. I consider it an honor to work alongside you, and I look forward to meeting you soon.

Experiencing challenges, life transitions, trauma, heartbreak, confusion, and pain without good support can keep us from living and growing well. I have a passion for people not feeling alone, learning how to own their life, helping people develop resilience and wanting clients to feels seen and heard. I use the principles of narrative focused trauma care, CBT, relational psycho-dynamic therapy, attachment theory, and a system theory framework to collaborate with clients looking for care and support. With kindness, I invite clients to be curious about themselves, how they got to where they find themselves today, and their imagination for the future. My direct, yet curious and empathetic demeanor invites clients towards building lives of connection, hope, and wholeness. As we navigate the joys and pains of being human, I would be honored to join you on your journey towards resilience, redemption, and freedom.
