Therapists in Morningside, Atlanta, GA

I work with adolescents and adults surrounding difficulties with anxiety, depression, adult ADHD, parenting, and managing the stresses of college or work or striving to find your own work-life balance. I will work together with you, both as a guide and as your team member, to help you set goals and work to meet those personal goals. I will help you to not only alleviate your symptoms as quickly as possible, but will help you to understand the causes of your difficulties sufficiently so that you will less likely experience a re-emergence of symptoms as soon as therapy ends.

Working with a psychologist should be a positive and beneficial experience. Not only do I believe in supporting my clients through successes and challenges, I love my work and am very dedicated to those I work with. In my practice, I specialize in providing comprehensive psychological assessments and therapy with children, adolescents, and young adults. Currently, I have a private practice in Atlanta; I am an attending psychologist at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta; and I perform neuropsychological/ psychoeducational evaluations at Georgia State University.

My passion is helping adolescent boys, teens & young adult men as they navigate through challenging periods in their lives. By empowering adolescents, teens & young adult men with the tools and support they need, they are able to get "unstuck" and move forward with more confidence. Many of my clients struggle with their peer relationships and may suffer with social anxiety or low self-esteem, thus avoiding social interactions altogether. In the absence of fulfilling peer relationships, they may develop an over reliance on video games, social media, or other electronics use.

"We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future." - Steve Maraboli

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.

Relationships are hard, and connection is possible. Sometimes how we cope with pain and stress become the source of more pain and stress. We repeat patterns in relationships, seek escape in negative behaviors, or generally feel stuck. Often these behaviors are responses to past trauma or to a narrative we tell ourselves. Identifying these patterns and knowing where to start is difficult and rewarding work. Engaging in therapy will help you address concerns and trauma, reduce worry and anxiety, decrease depression and sadness and cultivate a healthy relationship with yourself and your environment.

"When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own the story, we can write a brave new ending." -Brene Brown. Believing these words, I do my best to create a safe, non-judgmental, compassionate space for adult individuals, couples and families to own and process their stories, while finding meaning, healing and growth. We are dynamic people, capable of change and restoration, and it is an honor to facilitate and walk with a person through this process. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, addiction, chronic illness, marital concerns, trauma, anger management, international adjustments and transitions, and infertility.

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. Many come to therapy to learn new ways to manage anxiety, depression, stress, or find ways to create fulfillment and connection in life again. 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.

As a Psychotherapist I understand that human pain, suffering and changes in development can be difficult to navigate alone. Our social system can lack the reinforcement we need to successfully navigate life. It is my belief that therapy can assist with helping to navigate, regroup, and regain our happiness - which is different for each person. I also understand how therapy with the right person can make a major difference in regrouping and regaining happiness. We all deserve happiness and our happiness starts and ends with us. Take the first step toward regaining your happiness - Open Up to the possibilities.

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.
