Individual Therapy:

Do you find yourself struggling, dissatisfied, frustrated, hurt, or just confused? Often times our friends and family provide the best advice and comfort they can, but we still feel as though something is missing. In individual therapy, you can have a chance to explore your thoughts with an experienced professional who will offer the right level of support and guidance to help you achieve the compassionate creative change you want. In individual therapy I have experience and expertise in addressing the following areas: anxiety, depression, self-esteem, social skills, mood regulation, divorce, dating, and trauma.

 

Child and Adolescent Therapy

I work with children as young as 5 all the way through early adulthood.  It is particularly important when working with children or teens that their parents/guardians are part of the process. Meaning that I will have family sessions or sessions with just parents/ guardians in order to assist the family in providing the support necessary for their child/teen. The following are a list of areas in which I have expertise or the most experience: anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, social skills, and behavioral problems. I do not have specialized training needed to effective treat individuals who are on the Autism Spectrum disorder; however, I am willing to work with individuals who are able to participate in traditional talk therapy to address the above mentioned areas of concern.  

Telemental Health 

Whether its work, family, location or a combination of all three coming into the office isn’t always doable. Telemental health provides you with the opportunity to meet your needs from the comfort of your own home. I use a HIPPA compliant program to provide secure video sessions at a time that works best for you. While telemental health offers more a more convenient approach to services, its not suitable for everyone and is not offered for individuals struggling with suicidal or homicidal thinking, active self-harm, active addiction, or for children/teens. Currently, I am only licensed in the state of Georgia and can only provide telemental health services to individuals in Georgia. 

Couples Therapy

Does the spark in your relationship seem more like a dim light or a flutter? Maybe you are content in your relationship but want a deeper more meaningful connection with your partner. I enjoy working with a wide variety of couples and have experience in working with communication, parenting, “fighting fair”, marital enrichment, exploring mental illness in the context of marriage, and working with couples who are currently separated. I do not specialize in sex therapy or substance abuse. I am willing to work with couples who are currently receiving sex therapy or substance abuse therapy and need additional couples counseling.

Workshops

Education has been a huge part of my career, as a marriage and family therapist and I am thrilled to be able to offer workshops in the community. Currently I offer customizable workshops for school, church, and corporate settings. The first step will be meeting and deciding what topic and forum would be best suited for your needs. From there I will use my expertise and latest research to develop a workshop that will both educate and entertain. The topics I typically provide workshops on focus on marriage, family, parenting, communication, child/adolescent concerns, and mental health.

Group Counseling

“Healing is a matter of time, but it is also sometimes is a matter of opportunity” Hippocrates. The journey to wellness is just as unique as each individual and I believe it is imperative to offer multiple opportunities to learn and grow. There is power in community and group therapy allows you to experience change alongside others who “get it”. In group therapy you can expect to feel supported, safe, and empowered. Check back often to see announcements for upcoming group opportunities.

Family Therapy

Family the foundation for how we relate to ourselves and others. It is apparent this is a passion of mine. I absolutely love working with all families, particularly blended families. I have had experience working with: relationship repair, communication, boundaries/discipline, and processing trauma.

I’m ready when you are!
