Therapists in Dunwoody, GA

Every counselor, if they are honest, is seeking a client who is intelligent, funny, motivated, and has strong interpersonal skills. I am happy to work with those people, but I specialize in the more difficult cases. I like working with people who have had bad counseling experiences in the past. Those who know that they need change, but are unsure how to go about making those changes. Counseling is a collaborative relationship. My goal is not to fix your life, but to come along side you and help you move forward one step at a time.

Sometimes we come to a place where we realize the life we are living is not aligned with our personal values, purpose, or desires. There may be patterns that have served a purpose in the past, helping us manage fear when we have felt unsafe and haven't had the resources to effectively cope. While these strategies may have helped you survive, they may now be holding your body and mind hostage to the past. Together we can explore these patterns with the goal to help you develop personal insight, learn new coping strategies, and heal into a fulfilled life.

As the 1st Black female Brainspotting trainer in the world, I seek to humanize mental health struggles, representation and champion therapy to everyone as the path to normalizing/living a healthy, active, fulfilling life. Freedom, self-confidence, courage, a healthy sense of self; what's stopping you? Barriers to acceptance exist, often buried deep within the layers of experience, trauma, divorce, unmet needs, unhealed hurts, depression, anxiety, less than desired self esteem, family systems, unhealthy relationships, anger, feelings of being misunderstood, symptoms of diagnosis, poor communication skills and the list goes on.

I work with individuals, couples, families, and groups across the lifespan who are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, addiction, behavioral issues, and relational challenges.

At times in life we all get stuck and venture to places in which change is necessary. I aim to create a safe and caring space where we (you and I) listen to what your thoughts, feelings and symptoms are telling you about your story. Those stories then serve as a roadmap for developing new skills, making new meanings, and rediscovering parts of yourself that may have been lost. My style is warm, compassionate and creative, and I will use my years of experience and intuiton to guide and walk alongside you in your courageous journey of healing.

Have the challenges of daily living caused you to become emotionally, mentally, spiritually and/or physically overwhelmed? Don't despair, there is hope! Rather than being content with the dysfunctional effects of life's challenges, I believe a more viable solution is to work towards identifying the source of the struggle and define ways to eradicate or lessen the pain or brokenness. You are not destined to remain hurt or broken; together, in a caring, trusting, and compassionate environment, we will explore a life path that can lead to your good health and wholeness in spirit, mind, and body.

Finding the right path towards safety, trust, healing, and growth can be a daunting task. Allowing ourselves to seek support through therapy can begin the process towards connecting you to your truest self.

I use an eclectic approach that draws from a number of modalities to help utilize the whole self.

Are you feeling lost or stuck? I am passionate about making a real lasting difference in your life, and inspiring you to develop tools to move towards your goals in a flexible, gentle and supportive way. I approach the mind/body from an integrative and holistic point of view that combines eastern, western and energy medicine philosophies; my experience has shown that when this approach is used strategically you may heal the root causes and find deeply profound transformational healing. My goal is to help with any physical, mental, or emotional imbalance that may come up so that you can get back to living and loving life!

I want to offer you more than traditional talk therapy, I want to offer you a space to find an inner connection with your mind, body, and soul through exploring emotions, sensations, dreams and the things left unspoken. Sometimes if we skip over our emotions, our bodies will express them through symptomology, and navigating immune sensitivities is complicated. My hope is that the therapy room becomes an experiential space where you hash out what it feels like to engage in safety, connection, resonating with another person. We can navigate this through somatic based EMDR, applied polyvagal, somatic experiencing.

Despite the chaos of today's world, there is an incredible opportunity for change. You can learn to turn anxiety into your superpower and heal from past traumas that have kept you repeating the same behaviors that keep you stuck. If you want to improve how you show up in relationships, at work, or your overall well-being, you must do the inner work. People who suffer from anxiety nearly always have unexpressed negative feelings about some problem in their lives. The inner work helps you become more mindful and empowers you to respond from a place of choice rather than reaction.
