A mantra that resonates with me both personally and professionally is, “Do a brave thing every day.” I love working with clients who are motivated to self-discover and grow.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in the Atlanta area since 2006. I have a passion for helping people regain control over their lives after experiencing difficult events that have impacted how they see the world and themselves. My philosophy in therapy is that you are your own expert on your life and hold the key to making changes that you want. It is my role and privilege, as your therapist, to walk along side of you, providing support and assisting you with tools that you can carry with you on your journey.

If feeling burned out or stuck is what brought you here—you’re in the right place. I support folks dealing with stress, relationship bumps, overwhelming emotions, and those who need to make changes in their life or career. Many who work with me consider themselves perfectionists, disenfranchised, people-pleasers, over-thinkers, and imposters. Truth is, I’m here for the wounded hearts who fear they won't heal; those who have known pain so intensely that life without it seems unimaginable. You don’t have to carry this alone—we’re just not wired for that.

With more than 40 years of experience, I believe that psychotherapy can provide a "safe container," a non-judgmental place, in which clients can confront their issues in complete confidentiality without fear of rejection. There is no blueprint for this process; together we create the path leading to each client's inner wisdom and healing.

Feeling down? Anxious? Exhausted? Doubting your self and your ability to make important changes in your life? Despite your best intentions, are you always getting in your own way? Maybe you take much better care of others than yourself. Perhaps "you have it all", but still feel empty or bored? Are your thoughts dominated by self criticisms, fear, and troublesome memories? Perhaps, you have read self help books and have tried trendy quick-fixes. Why continue to go at it alone? Therapy can help you recognize the patterns of relating to your self and others that contribute to your ongoing distress.

I currently offer only Telehealth if you reside in CA and GA, and can compassionately meet you where you are at by providing a safe and supportive space.

Together we can explore ineffective patterns, and work on strengthening coping , communication, problem solving skills, self compassion, as well as ways to deepen relationships for lasting change.

It can be overwhelming to search for a psychologist, especially when you are already in distress. A comfortable fit between you and your therapist is by far the most essential ingredient in your healing process. I encourage people to be very thoughtful about selecting someone to work with, and to speak with several people if it doesn't feel right from the beginning. I welcome the opportunity to talk with potential clients about their needs, and view our initial conversation as an important first step toward healing.

My clients are young and older adults, women and men that are highly motivated to grow, learn and change.

In coaching we focus on bold visioning, realizing a dream or endeavor, expanding and optimizing meaning, purpose and/or fulfillment in life. Emphasis is always on empowerment, strength based choices, bringing your whole self to bear, producing lasting lifestyle change and helping you clear away what's holding you back so you can courageously choose to thrive.

My goal as a counselor is to help all my clients live their best life by helping them increase self-awareness, foster resilience, identify their personal strengths, and move forward with confidence and hope. Everyone goes through times when life feels overwhelming or discouraging or out of control. Having someone to help you through those times can make a big difference; that is who I strive to be for my clients.
