Therapists in Lawrenceville, GA

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to experience healing from your hurts and frustrations? I would love to help guide you to a place of freedom from the the past and hope for the future.

As a eclectic therapist, I provide services that best meet the clients current needs. My goal is to meet you where you are and work with you to get where you want to go. I work with young adults, adolescents, and children as young as preschool age that are having difficulty adjusting in the classroom environment, home environment and/or any life transition. I understand that the most effective way to assist the client is to also work with the family; therefore, parenting and family sessions may be encouraged. Congratulations on taking the first step to do the work.

Having difficulty focusing? Unable to get a full night of sleep? Lacking motivation or energy to get things done? I understand completely because I truly believe that everyone deals with some level of depression and/or anxiety on a daily basis. It's these exact feelings that can lead to irritability/anger and substance use, as well. It can be a vicious cycle. But, together we can break that cycle. I can provide you with the tools, guidance and support needed to navigate through these feelings. I can help you learn how to manage your emotions and lead an emotionally healthier life.

Have the problems in your relationship grown like weeds in a garden? Do you find it difficult to see past the overgrowth of issues, despair, hurt, loss, and pain? Have you found that the important relationships that you nurtured, don't seem to be flourishing? I help couples and individuals to identify, evaluate, and face the challenges within their meaningful relationships and their lives. I have worked with a variety of couples and individuals that have struggled within their love life.

My work involves guiding clients to empower themselves by being the source of their own healing.

What if I told you that an estimated 1 in 4 U.S. adults suffers with a diagnosable mental illness each year? What if I told you that 1 in 6 U.S. children has a mental illness? What if I also told you that you’re not alone and that I am ready to help? Imagine having the tools and support you, or your child, need to THRIVE. Imagine a life where the happy days far exceed the sad days. Imagine feeling supported, empowered, and in control of your life. This IS possible and not as far-fetched as you may feel it is right now!
