Family Systems Therapists in Atlanta, GA

My practice is rooted in Liberation Psychology and Family Systems approaches. Whether you are seeking family therapy, trauma-focused therapy, or support for your anxiety or depression, I collaborate with you to achieve your treatment goals. I believe all people have an innate capacity to grow, heal, and change if they are provided a safe and supportive environment. I help people gain awareness of how and why they have lost access to meaningful parts of themselves, find ways to remove obstacles to emotional growth, and move towards feeling more connected.

I offer different types of therapeutic avenues to explore, rework, release and address challenges old or new. We decide the timetable and scope of therapy together whether very focused change is desired or more in depth reworking is wanted. Some people also use therapy to maintain positive gains and have a unique place to speak/ find the truth in a safe, trusting environment. The focus is on enhancing and building on strengths to realize potential based on needs. I use brainspotting, polyvagal informed therapy (Unyte/ILS listening system) and IFS(Internal Family Systems) to deeply and often more rapidly release blocked/frozen issues

Creating the life and relationships you want is not only possible, it can be fun, exciting, healing. Old patterns, beliefs, hurts, traumas don't have to hold you back.

My therapeutic focus is on relationships, individuals, and couples. The goal of my practice is to help clients experience healthy relationships and peace within by integrating Christian theology and psychology. Since successful relationships begin with a clear perspective of self, I emphasize the importance of boundaries, attachment patterns, self-esteem, and emotional awareness and regulation. Individual deep work, talk therapy, and family systems therapy challenge practices of thinking, feeling, and relating. My strengths include establishing rapport through respect, empathetic listening, and a safe environment to explore old wounds and new frontiers with a specialty in Christian spirituality in counseling.

As a professional counselor I value the uniqness of each person and in the strength and creativity of the human spirit. Within the counseling relationship is a safe place to define areas for growth, vent feelings, explore the many possibilities, find encouragement and move toward peacefulness. My approach to counseling is gentle and encouraging, although I can be direct when it is helpful. I will support without judging and am respectful of individual and/or cultural differences. My approach draws on a number of theoretical orientations that best suit the group or individual needs.
