Family Therapy in Chamblee, GA

I love working with professionals in the throes of their careers as well as parents dealing with the stresses of everyday life including raising children, living with adult children or children with special needs, or dealing with aging parents. My clients desire to improve their circumstances, but do not have the resources to make their goals a reality (yet). They may feel stuck in a limited situation with their careers or family situation but yearn to address what is going on their own terms.

I am an Anxiety, OCD and Trauma specialist. When clients come to work with me they are often struggling with fear of the unknown, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, behavioral and mental compulsions, negative intrusive thoughts and other such patterns that are taking them deeper into the fear spiral. In therapy, I support my clients in developing a kinder relationship with themselves while becoming more conscious of the negative coping patterns that are holding them in cycles of pain. We work on shifting this while also developing the positive coping skills needed to move towards a healthier, freer and more joyful life.

I help my clients heal their relationships starting with the one with themselves. I help clients either heal from a past traumatic relationship, improve a current one or prepare themselves for a new one.

With a heart-centered presence, I welcome in clients that are curious to deepen relationship with themselves in an empowered, gentle, and compassionate way. I offer a collaborative, warm space that is focused on cultivating a sense of safety and empathetic understanding as we move through what naturally arises in therapy.
