Therapists in Senoia, GA

I am not currently accepting new clients. I expect to have availability again in August/September 2024. Do you feel overwhelmed by life? Or feel like no one understands? I am here to help. I am passionate about working with teens and adults overwhelmed by daily stresses. I work with families who experience the challenges of life-threatening or chronic illnesses. I also work with clients expressing suicide ideations and their families (biological or chosen), as I believe a person needs a support system outside of the counseling room.

I am a clinical therapist with almost 20 years of experience in working with children and adolescents in the school setting. I received my Bachelor's in Sociology from the University of West Georgia and Master's in Social Work from Clark Atlanta University. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, suicidal ideations, grief and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My goal is to provide a unique, client-centered approach to each child and family. Contact me today so I can help you and your family get back on track!

Marriage /relationships can be tough and even good marriages can be stressful. With my husband Tom, I work collaboratively with couples experiencing distress & disconnection in their relationships. We work as a husband-wife team and focus on helping couples rebuild & strengthen their emotional bond. We believe that strong marriages are the foundation for healthy families and believe that marriage is worth fighting for. We are committed to helping couples preserve, enhance and restore their relationships.

You hurt when your child hurts. As their parent, you just want to ease their pain. Being unable to do this can be heart-breaking but also frustrating and exhausting. Communication can require so much energy. Sometimes those efforts even cause conflict between you and your child. These times are confusing and difficult for everyone in the home. Children, teens, and adults face a variety of challenges. Peer interactions, school/life transitions, developmental changes, increased stressors, navigating emotions, and responsibilities are all a part of the growing up process, but can place significant tension on the family unit.
