He specializes in utilizing Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) as his go to modality in helping clients increase mindfulness while developing coping skills, emotional regulation techniques, and interpersonal effectiveness strategies. Ryan earned his Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Georgia, where he further fostered his passion for helping people in need. He became a “double dog” in returning to UGA for his Master's degree in Social Work, where he honed his skills in clinical practice and received further training in employing CBT, MI and DBT. Outside of his work as a therapist, Ryan is a self-professed cat and sloth lover and enjoys immersing himself in gaming and nerd culture.

Is emotional upheaval getting in the way of your moving forward with your life? I would love the opportunity to help you to sort through the sources of the emotions, help to make them more manageable, and help you to regain some sense of direction and progress for your life. Working toward more refined beliefs and understanding about emotions, circumstances, and responses to them can be helpful. In my roughly 28 years as a psychologist I have mostly worked with people who have problems with anxiety, depression, PTSD, anger, relationship problems, and aging issues. I have worked with ages ranging from elementary school to 70s and a little older. I have found that experience allows me to realize client needs more quickly than in my early years in practice, and hope to use this experience to your benefit.

I typically respond to messages Monday morning through Thursday afternoon. Please also note that I do not provide opinions about disability or fitness to return to work or other activities for clients who are not well-established at the time that the request for such opinion is made.

Welcome! I'm Alisha Do you find yourself attempting to dismiss negative thoughts or memories? Possibly avoiding situations, scenarios, and places that remind you of something not so great? Do these memories invoke some kind of negative belief about yourself that you know is not true?

I empower those who are ready to address some of the things from the past or the present that may be presenting a mental and emotional weight on functioning, relationships, and overall well-being.

I have helped individuals dealing with addiction, anxiety, depression, and grief. The longer I am in the field, the more I am amazed by people’s ability to find strength from within to allow healing to take place.
