Therapists in Lowndes County, GA
I am passionate about empowering people to make positive changes in their lives. I recognize that people have the ability to change, but often lack the confidence or direction to do so. I do not believe there is a one-size fits all approach to therapy and I strive to develop genuine connections so that therapeutic services are personalized to the needs of each client.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist proving therapy for children and adults, with a focus on military families. I am an ally of the LGBTQIA+ community and strive to provide an affirming and validating space for all of my clients. I’ve found that many people come to me with narratives that describe themselves as “bad” or broken and not good enough, thinking that they will never succeed, or are unworthy of love or respect. These false beliefs often prevent them from making desired changes, resulting in a hopeless narrative that brings pain and discouragement.

You may be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or struggling with the weight of trauma, anxiety, or other life changes. Maybe you are a survivor of a traumatic event, trying your best to cope with life's stressors, or even facing difficult thoughts and emotions. Whatever your current challenge is, the motivation for change that is self-driven is the most important. You want real change, and not surface-level fixes. I’m here to help you with learning tools, processing, and moving forward.

My Approach Three words which describe my therapeutic style are: engaging, non-judging, & compassionate. My approach is based on experience with both Psychoanalysis & Cognitive Behavioral Therapy which I use interchangeably to provide quality and thorough therapy to my clients. It is my belief that success in therapy has its framework in these two approaches where the goal is for the client to understand how thoughts impact feelings and feelings impact behavior.

Feeling "stuck" in areas of your life: school, relationships, work, or family can leave you feeling hopeless and in despair. It may also create feelings of anxiety, sadness, fear, loneliness and distress.

I provide a warm, safe, and supportive environment in which my clients can explore the issues and challenges they face.

I enjoy the therapeutic process and helping people to grow, change, develop, and become. I enjoy helping people develop a plan of self care in a safe and nonjudgmental setting. With today's challenges to find time for self care I have recently added two new services to include: Tele-therapy as an option for clients who cannot come into the office for traditional services, and emotional support animal evaluation for those who need documentation of their need for their emotional support pet.
