Is there a silent voice telling you that you’re not good enough? Constantly feeling like something is wrong with you? Tired of dealing with anxiety and depression, and never feeling like you are acceptable while assessing your behaviors, thoughts and responses ? Not to mention the triggers and comparisons, where you get thrown into fight or flight mode. Then you feel overwhelmed and stressed... you’re not sleeping well, and now your body is starting to feel tight and heavy. All you know is that you are tired of this cycle and want out!

At Atlanta CBT, I help adults with anxiety (generalized anxiety, phobias, social anxiety, health anxiety, etc.), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), and depression using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness training. In addition to those core areas of focus, I am a seasoned therapist also possessing skills and experience to guide adults through grief, spiritual exploration, parenting, family relationships, adjusting to life’s stressors, and issues associated with diversity and inclusion.

I'm grateful for your courage to seek help. I care deeply about helping people address their concerns while offering respect, safety and compassion. I view therapy as an opportunity to use your strengths and resources in order to increase your overall health and life satisfaction. We will collaborate to alleviate distressing experiences in the present and gain insight into where these difficulties originated. Throughout, I will meet you with integrity and culturally-responsive care.

Life happens in unexpected ways. Whether adjusting to a sudden life change or a known life transition, you may be feeling emotionally overwhelmed and exhausted. The time period of transitioning to adulthood is stressful enough and dealing with anxiety, hopeless feelings, or just uncertainty on how to move forward can make it unbearable. Many adults have found help by reaching out and working with a therapist. There is an opportunity to learn and grow from your experience. Maya Angelou says, “You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”

I am a specialist offering cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with mindfulness training for anxiety (generalized anxiety, phobias, social anxiety, health anxiety, etc.), obsessive compulsive or related disorders, perfectionism, insomnia, and post traumatic stress. I also help with depression, substance use, and chronic health conditions as well as difficulties adjusting to life changes, career, or relationships.

Day to day life can be really hard! We're all doing the best we know how, but certain times it feels like something might be missing. We all need support in different areas to navigate our personal struggles from depression, anxiety, stress management, behavioral issues, or family communication challenges. I believe in empowering you to identify what your hopeful future and goals look like and helping you to get there in a healthy way. By focusing on these goals, your strengths, and family history, I'll support you towards growth, healing, and healthy relationships.

In all stages of life, we find ourselves in need of validation, support, and empathy. My aim is to provide you a safe/affirming space to share challenging life experiences and give you skills to navigate them. Seeking help is not easy and I applaud you for taking this first step. I strive to honor your unique identities and collaborate with you in examining how your backgrounds may impact your wellness. My clinical specialties include relationship concerns, family of origin concerns, adjustment difficulties, identity exploration, anxiety, and mood concerns.

They say the only constant in life is change, which is not always smooth. Both major and minor life transition can feel overwhelming, throwing you off balance and creating feelings of anxiety and depression. Whether you’re finding it difficult to pick up the pieces after a breakup, not adjusting well after relocating, feeling unhappy in your job, or just feeling stuck in life I’m here to tell you that no matter how difficult the change is, it’s at these moments that profound healing and transformation can take place.

I am an ABPP certified psychologist providing evidence-based psychotherapy to people ages 17+. Having practiced in Georgia since 2007 when I completed my postdoctoral fellowship in Clinical Psychology at Emory University, I've worked in private practice and hospital settings for 15+ years treating depression, anxiety (including OCD, panic, phobias, and chronic worry/GAD), PTSD and other trauma or grief related issues, bipolar disorder, insomnia, and issues related to meaning/purpose and existential distress. I work with individuals from late adolescence through older adulthood across the continua of gender, ethnicity, and faith.

Does anxiety feel like it is hard to manage? Whether it's anxiety about your relationship, your sex life, your job, your social life, or your life in general, the symptoms are all too regular and familiar: racing heart, stomach churning, and feeling like you can't breathe just to name a few. If only you could just wish the anxiety away with logic. Your friends or partner tell you to just relax and stop overthinking, but you can't! Your mind won't listen. No matter how hard you try, you just can't get your mind to stop.

I work with individuals ages 14+ experiencing a myriad of clinical concerns including depression, anxiety, life transitions, and grief. Additionally, I have a passion for working with individuals overcoming complex trauma as well as sexual abuse. Some of my other clinical experiences include working with substance use, HIV/AIDS, eating disorders, and suicidal ideation. Many of my clients are seeking out culturally sensitive care where their identities are given the space to be seen and heard. During our time together we will work on building awareness of thought patterns, beliefs, and narratives that no longer serve you.

Good Life. "The good life is a process, not a state of being. It's a direction, not a destination" (Carl Rogers). I help people make lasting changes they feel good about. I'm easy to talk to and I'll work with you flexibly, even playfully, using a mix of techniques and approaches known to be effective. I'll help you couple your insight with action so you can work out creative solutions. I'll respect your right to decide what is good for you, based on your truths. I'll help you to rewrite The Story of You.

Have a repeating pattern of difficulty maintaining satisfying relationships? Struggling to gain freedom from memories of a painful past? Feeling stuck in cycles of conflict with your partner? Regardless of what your stressors are, you are capable of reaching your emotional potential, and living a fulfilled life through obtaining balance, wellness, and peace. I work with a range of issues, including attachment trauma, anxiety, depression, addiction, racial identity issues, and other mental health stressors, with training in EMDR, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and internal family systems (IFS). I see individuals and couples.

Motherhood is hard - it's okay to admit that! It's also okay for mothers to reach out for support along the way. You don't have to figure it out alone.

Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or you're looking to come back after taking a break, I'm so glad you're here searching. Even if you don't experience chronic symptoms of anxiety, depression, etc., this year has been difficult to navigate for many of us and many are looking ways to cope and feel grounded. If you are experiencing burn out, stress, feel lost, struggling with relationships and feel disconnected, I am here to help. I believe in the holistic approach that healing involves the mind, body, and spirit. I believe in acknowledging your past, observing your present, and guiding your future.

Are you looking for guidance navigating a difficult life transition? Do you feel stressed out, easily overwhelmed, or generally uncomfortable in your skin? Is substance use or a traumatic past limiting the way you live? Whether you are struggling with anxiety, trauma, or addiction, I can offer you a safe place to heal and grow. Looking into therapy is a brave first step in taking control of your life, and no matter what you are going through, I will meet you with compassion and respect. I believe that a holistic approach to treating the mind, body, and soul—something I am passionate about—can help you discover your authentic self.

As a client-centered therapist, I believe in the human capacity to "self-actualize." In psychology, self-actualization is achieved when you're able to reach your full potential. I have learned that we are more alike than different in this work. Most people want to feel seen, heard, loved, valued, protected, and connected. Where one is missing, there is usually an amplification in anxiety. I am in the empathy business. I use connection and evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), to help clients clarify their "why" and navigate a path to deeper fulfillment—professionally and personally.
