Therapists in 30601

I work with folks that have learned to survive and navigate the world by making themselves small, putting their heads down, and doing the hard things that no one else will. You are intelligent, resourceful, and strong, so it is tempting to feel like if you try harder, think more, or be less yourself- all your feelings, challenges, or circumstances will change. Often, you find yourself at the end of your rope, exhausted, disappointed, isolated without support, hopeless, and unable to trust anyone- even yourself. I’m here to tell you, You are not alone.

I work most frequently on relationships managing trauma and childhood neglect. I also love working with clients who do not have negative past experiences, but simply want to improve the relationships they have. I provide a warm environment for exploring areas of concern, and I am committed to hearing the spoken and the unspoken, as well as helping you make meaningful connections in your life. As a therapist who is Christian, I also enjoy making spiritual connections and giving encouragement to one's faith journey. I am also comfortable maintaining a safe secular space for you to share your struggles openly and honestly.

I believe that vulnerability is the key to true intimacy and growth in relationships, and with me, you can expect a safe space to take that journey. I understand that it takes a great deal of courage and bravery to embark on the journey of therapy and healing. If you are struggling with martial or premarital issues, family relationships, Self esteem, or even just everyday issues, I would love the opportunity to share that space with you and walk along side you on the journey. As a Christian therapist, my goal is to represent and reflect unconditional love to my clients.

When you reach out to a therapist for help, it's because of everything that's right with you. It takes bravery to seek help. My goal is to make sure that we celebrate that bravery, identify the areas of your life where you’d like to see improvements, and give you tools to improve those areas.

Have you recently been diagnosed with a chronic medical condition or have you experienced infertility issues?

I offer shame-free trauma and addiction treatment in Athens, GA. Nearly 75% of individuals struggling with substance misuse have a history of trauma. The risk of developing a substance use disorder is directly linked to a person's exposure to adversities such as childhood abuse, toxic stress, and dysfunctional relationships. I'm proud to specialize in helping those seeking recovery find the deep healing required for success. In the face of an invisible epidemic, trauma and substance misuse, you need an ally who sees you, knows your worth, and can help you move towards the life you deserve.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Master Addictions Counselor, I am passionate and dedicated to helping individuals, families and communities that are struggling to recover from alcohol and other drugs.

I will work with you to move forward in life and achieve your goal of being free of active addiction regardless of the past factors that have negatively impacted your life.

I work with eating disorders like bulimia, anorexia, binge-eating disorder and offer a warm and supportive way of understanding recovery. Therapy is a process and I am here to help in identifying triggers, managing the symptoms and overcoming difficulties. Together, we can think about you and help you understand your feelings, navigate through and overcome your symptoms, guiding you to living a more satisfying life.

I have been a therapist since 1991 and have had the opportunity to work in varied settings with a diverse population. I approach therapy with a non-judgmental, caring attitude, believing wholeness and healing occurs if individuals, couples and families can acknowledge their strengths as well as learn from their weaknesses. I am a professional who explores how a person operates and navigates within their own family system, with hopes that they find clues to their own particular functioning and modify their behaviors in ways that ultimately lead to health.

I believe that couples and family therapy can provide a uniquely powerful context for relational growth. Relate well to yourself - have a fair and meaningful connection with your anxiety, pain, and goals. Relate well to your partner, family, friends, and job - deepen bonds and communicate. We can relate well - let's collaborate on strengthening connections in your life!
