Therapists in Morrow, GA

Feelings of being, “stuck in mud or standing in quicksand”, in the sense of helplessness, feelings of being lost, unheard, unseen, or hopelessness? Masking your sadness with a smile while in the company of others or letting your extrovert behaviors come out, but in reality, it’s just a mask that covers your true thoughts and feelings. We often are unable to see just how much power we hold over our own lives that affects change in our day-to-day living. Our very own internal thoughts can sink us so far in depression that we forget how to live our lives to the fullest, There is nothing wrong with seeking help.

I believe therapy helps us understand the power of the mind. This is especially useful when we feel disconnected, marginalized, or stigmatized. When we feel this way, learning how the mind channels this information through thoughts, feelings, emotions, and perceptions, can influence us to recognize our own cognitive processes and how they impact our life. If we attend to our cognitive processes in a healthy way, it may lead to regulation of mood, clarity, balance and feelings of peace. We start to evolve and accept certain things about ourselves. We begin to feel at peace from within. I help my clients through this process.

Do you want to live a balanced life and feel happy? Perhaps you are constantly facing obstacles and challenges in your life that are impacting your holistic wellness and authentic relationships.

I foster an environment of compassion and respect, where you are encouraged to share thoughts, emotions, and experiences without concern of judgment. I wholeheartedly believe in the transformative power of embracing the present moment.

Do you have an immigration case and need a psychological evaluation and a report? I have over 15 years of experience providing mental health evaluations in a variety of settings. I offer several different types of immigration psychological evaluations including Asylum, Hardships/Cancellation of Removal, T Visa, U Visa and VAWA in the state of Georgia. Each evaluation includes two interviews and a thorough write-up of the evaluation. Evaluations are often completed within 2-4 weeks. In addition to evaluations, I also provide therapy for women who need support coping with anxiety, inner conflict, stress, and anger management.

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.

I specialize in assisting neurodivergent youths and adults as they navigate their unique experiences and learn to integrate into society. While I work with children, I believe in the power of working specifically with parents as individuals as they work on the many layers of their identity and their own unique challenges that often go overlooked. Those grappling with self-judgement and doubt, people pleasing tendencies, emotional regulation challenges, and interpersonal difficulties often find a safe space. I extend a warm welcome to them while equipping them with techniques and coping skills to promote self-efficacy and confidence.
