While you can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve your current challenges. Therapy will help you unearth behavior patterns or negative perceptions that hold you back. You will learn to achieve balance, heal past wounds, enrich relationships, identify maladaptive patterns, and improve interpersonal skills. This journey of self-exploration will lead to a more fulfilling life, one in which you can overcome hurts that prevent you from living life to the fullest.
I am an empathetic, authentic, and non-judgmental therapist that believes therapy is a collaborative process in which we establish mutually agreed-upon goals. I work hard to establish a safe, honest, and trustworthy environment and value each individual's journey and experiences. You will find me to be very open and upfront, yet, I am easy to talk to and dedicated to your well-being.
I have more than 15 years of experience working with individuals and families in many capacities and work from an eclectic theoretical orientation. I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed by the state of Georgia.
