Therapists in Marietta, GA

My career in counseling started with inpatient stabilization and treatment settings treating all ages in both mental health and addiction. These experiences combined with my own life experience qualify me to help you learn and grow in a non-judgmental atmosphere that will encourage positive thinking and solution focused change. Wellness is all about removing the obstacles that keep you from your true self. I want you to imagine what it would be like to wake up and feel free of the mental anguish that comes from not knowing how to break the debilitating thinking and behavior patterns that govern your life. Feels pretty great, right?

I use a number of strategies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to assist you.

Most people don’t expect to reach the point where they feel overwhelmed with the challenge’s of life. Issues such as depression, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, fatherhood challenges, domestic violence, and anger are just several daily life difficulties that can lead us to feeling overwhelmed. The counseling journey is a joint effort between the client and counselor. My goal for you during this journey is to create a partnership where you feel safe, free to speak your mind, and introduce you to a process void of judgment and completely focused on your overall well-being and mutual respect.

Life is a journey. Sometimes, that journey leads us to the most wonderful mountain top experiences. On the other hand, the journey may lead us down into the valley of despair.

You keep having the same fights or discussions over and over again, repeating the same pattern. Communicating with your partner doesn’t seem to be working. Everything you say seems to be the wrong thing. You feel hurt, angry, and scared that the pain and loneliness that you’re going through will never get better. You want to feel trust and security in your relationship. You want more than anything to feel connected again.
