Therapists in Habersham County, GA

Are you feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of your purpose in life? Are you hurt and unsure if you are ready to move on, but just can’t seem to uncover a new path? Some people just need someone to listen, get their experience, and understand how life is for them. You may have tried the same old things, which don’t seem to be working anymore. It’s often hard to ask for help, and seems a bit strange if you haven't been to therapy before.

Are you a teen or adult feeling overwhelmed or stuck? Do you want to return to feeling like yourself again? Transitions through life stages, losses, new posts/job transfers, relational difficulties, & divorce/separation can contribute to feeling anxious, depressed, or withdrawn. As a human, you naturally want to grow, move forward, & be well again. I can help you reflect, understand, & integrate these experiences to facilitate change. I draw from developmental & systems perspectives to inform theory-based, evidence-supported practices. A safe therapeutic environment is essential for optimal development.

My practice focuses on psychotherapy, neuropsychological assessment, and educational advocacy. Due to COVID, I am offering tele-assessment for those in high risk groups or w/ family members who are. Issues include: learning problems, employment challenges, relationship struggles, life transitions, developmental disorders, medical illnesses, and stress of being a member of a diverse group (LGBT, ethnic minorities, etc.). I see children/adults who may be unconventional, anxious, depressed or do not fit comfortably within their environment. The label “disability” may be applied to them, but “differently abled” is more accurate.

Are you familiar with the song performed by Diana Ross from "Mahogany" in 1975, "Do you know where you're going to?

Everyone encounters change and loss in love and work. I can accompany you in discovering your unique path towards healing and new meaning.
