Veterans Therapists in Mableton, GA

As an LCSW, I'm dedicated to helping clients navigate life's stressors, including postpartum periods and common mental health issues. My unique perspective as an African American therapist allows me to specialize in serving Aferican American men and women, particularly men, ensuring meaningful therapeutic connections. Through flexible sessions, we set goals and manage symptoms. I believe in therapy's transformative power and help clients tap into inner strength and personal growth. As a self-pay practice, I guarantee utmost privacy and respect.

I am truly passionate about assisting my clients with reflecting on their desires and concerns, investing in themselves to make the strides they hope to see, and advancing their lives based on their individualized goals. I have worked in various environments, including forensic institutions and private practice, providing individual and group therapy, and psychological evaluations. I have specialized in crisis and trauma, dedicating years to serving our nation’s Veterans.

“WE take an eclectic approach to providing therapeutic services. Our objective in therapy is "Facilitating Good Mental Health". We believe good mental health is a journey not a destination. Life can be challenging but it is our choices that increase the level of difficulty. Therapy provides the support and tools needed to navigate life's challenges. Achieving good mental health requires a collaborative relationship, which begins with building a trusting therapeutic environment. In practice, We utilize a variety of theoretical approaches such as Reality/Choice Theory, Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), and Family Systems.”

Empathy, sympathy, active listening, and genuine concern are vital to helping individuals overcome the challenges they face. When a person feels unfulfilled, frustrated or blocked by their current situation, seeking help is where change begins. Our Holistic/Person-Centered approach to healing from the inside out is designed to assess the root of an issue, and then help support individuals, families and couples on the path to thinking differently and therefore creating different, more positive outcomes. Privacy and confidentiality is the cornerstone of OneLove Counseling Services.

Over the several decades I have been in practice, I have enjoyed a large number of approaches to the different and complex problems that face people. Helping clients find and energize their own internal resources is not only inspiring, it is also exciting. Although many of my friends and colleagues have retired, I have not because there is nothing that I would rather do.
