I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 10 years of experience providing therapy to adults and teens. I received my bachelor's degree at the University of Georgia and two master's degrees from Marymount University in Forensic Psychology and Clinical Mental Health Counseling. In addition to general mental health problems, I have extensive experience working with adolescents and adults who are experiencing difficulties with problematic/unhealthy sexual behaviors. My practice also conducts psychosexual and psychological evaluations. You can learn more about my practice by viewing our website. If you're interested in
My goal is to provide the best care possible. Therefore, I adapt my therapeutic approach to best fit the needs of my clients. I believe that to enact change in our lives, it is vital to understand the impact our thoughts and emotions have on our behaviors. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused techniques.
I aim to establish a strong rapport with each client by providing a judgment-free space where we can identify your strengths and work together to meet your goals and build healthy practices. I aim to create a safe space to heal, grow, and build resilience. I also offer supervision for associate counselors. Schedule a free consultation through our website.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and behaviors. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better and make overall healthy changes in your life.
