Our intensive treatment programs are designed to engage clients who are struggling to manage their daily responsibilities and/or interpersonal relationships with family members or peers due to their mental health. Our therapists are experienced in working with clients who struggle with self-harming or suicidal ideations/gestures.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 8 years of experience based in Georgia. I have dedicated my career to helping individuals overcome symptoms of depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and life changing medical diagnoses. I have also helped individuals facing issues related to racial, ethnic and gender discrimination. My therapeutic approach draws on fundamentals of CBT, DBT, IPI, MI and solution-focused therapy. I believe that treatment methodologies are not one size fits all, however my warmth and empathy are shared with everyone.

After completing my undergraduate studies at Mercer University, I embraced the life of an entrepreneur. This journey brought many valuable insights that enhanced my understanding of human lived experiences. To a greater extent, this period heightened my ability to effectively connect and empathize with people of all walks of life. Over time I have adopted techniques from many disciplines within the field of psychotherapy. DBT, CBT and Solution Focused Therapy are those I most frequently employ. They offer much needed practical tools for patients in moments of acute crisis and provide the critical avenues to hope and motivation.

I believe the past often shows up in the present and I strive to create a space where we can honor your story and help you feel grounded in the here and now. Having lived in several parts of the world and experienced many different cultures, I have found what remains universal are the ways in which people tell stories and make meaning of their experiences. This is a powerful tool in the therapeutic space as well and one I make room for. By focusing on the counseling relationship, my hope is to cultivate a space that is welcoming and free of judgment.
