Experience:

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Georgia and have been working in the field of Mental Health for over 16 years. I received a Bachelor of Psychology as well as a Master of Science in Community Counseling from the University of North Georgia.

I have experience working with children and adults of all ages, with individuals, families and couples. I have worked in a variety of therapeutic venues, including county mental health, Mental Health Court in multiple counties, couples and family therapy in private practice and children and adolescents in community-based services. Additionally, my professional experience includes working with individuals with mood disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, addictive diseases, adjustment disorders and sexual and intimacy issues, as well as extensive work with the LGBTQIA+ community with adversity issues, sexual identity and sexual orientation. 

 

Modality:

I use a variety of techniques to assist individuals and families to reach personal and familial goals and overcome setbacks. I work primarily with ages 18 to 65 with individuals, couples and families going through transitions and hardships. With adults, I prioritize the individual’s needs and capabilities to guide the therapeutic process. With young adults, I emphasize the importance of self-actualization and confidence, as well as appropriate relationship boundaries. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, encouraging clients to include all aspects of life within the therapeutic process. I am also particularly drawn to working with the LGBTQ+ community through their developing journey, combating struggles with support, acceptance and interpersonal relationships.
