Adults Therapists in Buckhead, Atlanta, GA

I am an authentic and passionate Licensed Professional Counselor providing high quality evidence based counseling services to adolescents, college students, and adults facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, LGBTQ+, life transitions, panic attacks, and OCD. I believe that healing begins the moment you feel heard and understood. However, we live in a world where finding someone who can actively listen and attend to our true emotions and thoughts nonjudgmentally is hard to come by.

Approaching therapy can feel completely overwhelming and potentially defeating. The take a deep breath while mumbling "here we go" kind of feeling. This is our habitual mindset speaking, deciding this isn’t going to work. The mindset is a powerful place of cynicism, negativity, judgement & decision making. I believe that to stimulate change, growth, freedom or healing, we must first target the mindset that is keeping us frozen in our pain. The therapist is not here to solve or fix but to support your process in responding to yourself. Rebuilding back the mind, body and heart to an experience of power & wholeness.
