Psychotherapy is a healthy commitment and instills courage. It is crucial to find the right fit for yourself, one who can best relate to your personal issues. Working for Peachford, Ridgeview, and Emory Hospitals, has provided me to focus on Trauma, Autisim, Resistant Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, and Grief. My goal is to advocate for those desiring healing of painful emotions and retraining the brain for better outcomes. I invite teens, college students, and adults who suffer from intrusive thoughts, self-harming behaviors, loss of faith, grieving divorce, parental alienation, and narcissist abuse to have a place of peace .
I hold several degrees: Bachelor Fine Art (BA) with additional training in CBT, Expressive Art Form, DBT, EMDR and Somatic illness. I hold a Master's Degree of Science (MS) and focus in Trauma, Difficult Divorces, Forensic Evaluations for Court, and Parental Alienation. Member of the AFCC Association of Family and Conciliation Courts and EMDRA.
I believe, “There is a solution to all problems.” Everyone in life has a story to be told. We all want to be respected, loved and understood. I embrace Erikson’s life stages and Rogers's Person-Centered therapeutic approach. I strive to help build a supportive and authentic relationship with my clients. I offer group therapy and parential court services.

I follow the psychological historians Carl Rogers and Virginia Satir. I implement their beliefs that the client works alongside their therapist with great trust. I believe that a combination of CBT, DBT, and EMDR can be excellent ways of instilling new behaviors and communicating more effectively. Your voice matters and needs to be heard. Recently, 2024, authored a book, "A Heart's Betrayal."
