Hello and welcome! I'm Sierra. I'm a queer, anti-racist Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Atlanta, Georgia. I started my career as a therapist at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and if there is one thing I learned from that time it's that, more often than not, it's not you- it's the system. Since then I have been helping fellow women and members of the LGBTQ+ community rebuild self-esteem, manage anxiety, and heal unresolved trauma. I also help families of LGBTQ+ youth gain understanding about their child's experience and empower them to provide the best support they can. We all have certain narratives we tell ourselves about ourselves, some helpful some not, and some of those stories aren't even ours. My goal is to help clients identify the unhelpful stories, where they came from, and help them create a new story. I like to incorporate both CBT/DBT coping skills and Jungian concepts such as inner child work to ensure a holistic healing approach for my clients. Whatever your healing journey looks like, I would consider it an honor and a privilege to walk it with you.

My commitment is to help individuals to grow and make changes that are important to them so they can move forward in their life. It takes courage to ask for help and support and I am here to help and I look forward to working with you.

My professional background includes 10 years of work experience, during which I have licenses in both Georgia and Mississippi. I am skilled in helping individuals with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, motivation, self-esteem, confidence, and depression. I collaborate with my clients to cultivate a supportive and non-judgmental space, facilitating the sharing of thoughts and emotions with no fear. It takes great courage to take the initial step towards achieving a life that is both more fulfilling and happier. My purpose is to offer you support as you navigate through this process.

You will find me easy to talk to, compassionate, and warm. Working together in a collaborative effort, we will explore ways to help you identify and change thoughts and behavior patterns that keep you from feeling your best. I will tailor your therapeutic needs specifically designed to fit your circumstances to achieve optimal mental health. Searching for the 'right fit' with a therapist doesn't have to be a difficult task. It begins with our working together to empower you to be your own 'change-agent'! I will help you reflect, finding clarity and understanding, allowing you to achieve a more authentic, fulfilling and content life.
