I love working with people who want to grow. If you are feeling stuck, within yourself or your relationship, and you want help identifying your part and what you can do differently, let's talk. For over 24 years I have provided psychotherapy in Metro Atlanta, working with individuals and couples seeking to improve their lives and relationships. I would welcome the opportunity to talk with you to see if I might be a good fit for your needs and goals or whether I can help connect you to a trusted colleague.
My approach includes a combination of warmth, providing space for you to feel and think aloud, giving you honest feedback, and at times being directive. I enjoy working with individuals and with couples, and I have experience helping couples in different stages of relationship: those long-partnered or -married, and those seeking pre-marital counseling.
Asking for help is difficult and requires courage - and it also opens possibilities. "Nothing changes if nothing changes." So let's work together to create the change you want. Let's work together to see your best possible self emerge. For couples, let's work together to make your relationship one in which you both feel cherished.

I work with people who want to feel better about themselves, show up better in their relationships, and experience healthier connections. In the initial sessions I seek to understand the patterns that are not working, or what's getting in the way, and then I begin to offer interventions. Sometimes I'm like a coach, making concrete suggestions. Sometimes I facilitate deeper emotional work.

While I have training in different therapy modalities, overall I find the approach of Relational Life Therapy most helpful. Whatever the presenting issue, most people want to establish a better relationship with themselves and/or with someone else in their life, and with the RLT framework, I can help facilitate personal and relational growth.
