Therapists in 30067

Hello! I received my Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from Regis University with a concentration in Marriage and Family Therapy in 2008. I have experience in cultural stress, women's issues, marital/pre-marital, life transitions, and anxiety. My approach utilizes Cognitive Behavioral (CBT), Solution Focused Brief (SFBT), Narrative, Dialectical (DBT), and Family Systems therapies. I am passionate about increasing the accessibility of mental health services in marginalized communities and providing culturally competent mental health care.

As a practicing therapist, I aim to provide the mental health support I want for my wife, family, friends, and myself. Therapy that is rooted in love. As a Black Trans-Masculine, I know how hard it can be to understand, love, and believe in yourself when surrounding environments reject uniqueness. Every person and situation is different, but I aim to walk with you as you build the strength and resiliency needed to conquer life’s battles. You should have the privilege of understanding that peace is gained from being resilient and knowing that you have the strength to handle your future and set your standards for happiness.

Life just feels never-ending, a book with so many chapters. It’s uncomfortable to share your most vulnerable feelings, with anyone. Craving a space to be your authentic self. It feels impossible to find. Imagine a space where you are heard. Someone is there to communicate, “You matter.” No false expectations. A place tucked away to relate, relax and, yes, release! I hope to provide this warm, welcoming space for you to be YOU. Your feelings matter and you deserve to be heard in a judgment-free zone. As a dedicated therapist, my goal is to help you develop a place of trust. I am sensitive to my client’s needs.

Children and Families have been my passion for the duration of my professional career. Specializing in services to Pre-Kindergarten to college seniors, I utilize a strength-based supportive counseling approach to overcome challenges within and outside the family system. As a passionate and impactful School Counselor, I help students and their families navigate their complex worlds to live a knowledge-rich, healthy, happy life. As a mental health professional, I understand the unique nature of individual school culture that supports and sometimes challenges children. I provide non-school-based supportive counseling services.

We are a trauma informed agency that specializes in treating trauma survivors which is ANY event that is difficult to cope with.

We will meet you at your point of need and engage you in a therapeutic and supportive way, promoting self-actualization and empowerment.

I am a firm believer that at any given moment you have the power to decide how you want your story to end. As your therapist, it is my job to support you and guide you on your path of healing. I believe in authenticity, transparency, and respect and I welcome you into the therapy room with me where you will experience a safe place to process your feelings and make sense whatever it is that you are going through.

*Intensively Trained DBT Therapist* Deciding to begin therapy can be an anxiety provoking decision. That is why I provide an ease about coming to therapy and attempt to make my clients feel comfortable beginning this process. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults helping them get through difficult transitions in their lives. I do a lot of work challenging people to explore their aggression, self-harming behaviors, drugs and alcohol use, suicidal ideations, depression and anxiety. I also enjoy working with adults dealing with life transitions and helping them improve their moods and perspectives on life.

There are times where we need a bit more support and perhaps an unbiased non-judgmental person to offer that lending ear. Depression, anxiety and stressors can be debilitating for anyone who has been affected by it regardless of age, gender or ethnicity. Therapy is a journey that can offer that support in which the therapist and client work together collaboratively in care. We will both row that boat together to get you to your established goal.

If you're seeking growth, growth will be inevitable. I enjoy the thrill of witnessing my clients recognize their potential and take charge of their lives, perhaps for the very first time. When your life improves, I am deeply moved, and thankful. And, because I am a practical person, your therapy will have a beginning, a middle, and an end, so you can get on with the pleasure of creating a wonderful life. I promise to be an unwavering ally along the way.

I know that it takes a lot of courage to reach out and ask someone that you do not know for help. But life can be full of so many challenges that we cannot always sort out on our own. I strongly believe that individuals who have experienced trauma benefit greatly from working with a trauma-focused therapist who can create a safe & non-judgmental environment for them to show up as their authentic selves. One of my passions as a trauma-focused therapist is to empower my clients to explore new ways to make healthy changes in their lives, while also helping them heal wounds from stressful and traumatic experiences.

I am passionate about working with teens/young adults (16+) as they navigate anxiety, depression, complex trauma, life transitions, and building healthy relationships. With a genuine interest in understanding their perspectives and fostering healthy communication, my goal is to empower teens/young adults to overcome obstacles, build self-esteem, and thrive emotionally and mentally during this crucial stage of their lives. As a therapist, I also enjoy working alongside perinatal and postpartum individuals with concerns including anxiety and depression, grief/loss, parenting, and adjusting to motherhood.

Going through trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and/or an eating disorder can be very lonely and isolating. Clients sometimes feel that they have no one who really understands what they are going through. I have worked with many clients who have experienced tragedies and difficult times in their lives, and maybe you can relate to some of those difficult feelings. I'm here to tell you that you don't have to go through this alone! You may be looking for a place to heal, to explore painful memories, to receive support. There is strength in seeking help and I would love to be by your side to support you.
