As a counselor, I believe that working through challenges such as depression, anxiety, co-dependency, addictions... in the present time is very important, along with examining wounds from childhood that are barriers to moving forward. Through this work, healing can occur with understanding, self-compassion, authenticity, and positive change. Most people come to therapy related to feelings based on fear or pain. I provide a warm, compassionate place that allows my clients to openly share and have a voice that is respected and heard. I look forward to hearing your story.

I'm glad you stopped by! I'm an Arkansas native (most people never met anyone from there) while going to college and living in Louisiana for a number of years before moving to Georgia over 10 years ago. I have been a therapist for over 15 years and I've worked in almost every setting of mental health except with inpatient hospitalization treatment. I have also worked with varying ages and backgrounds. I'm licensed in several states and have specializations in Anger Management, Supervision, and EMDR. My approach is very person-centered with a mixture of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, and Emotionally Focused. I believe in working with clients where they are and helping them along their own therapeutic journey. So you're the driver of your own car! I believe the approach depends on whomever I am working with and their need at the present moment. Though eclectic in nature the modalities I most often utilize are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Client Centered. I have only one request for clients: Be open to the process! Other than that, I have and will work with pretty much anyone who meets that requirement. I have a very fun-loving tone and demeanor but I can also be very assertive in order to help you along the therapeutic process when necessary. I listen actively and with great intent so I'm able to help piece information together in an organized fashion even when thought processes may be disorganized or scattered. I always had a natural affinity for helping people as long as I can remember! It didn't take me long to figure out after writing my senior paper in high school about Sigmund Freud what I needed to do! Once I was clear, I made a plan and completed my BA in Psychology and got an MA in Counseling from the same institution. I tell people therapy chose me! I know that working in this field is definitely a calling and not just a career choice (at least for me anyway). Successful care is when a client is more self-aware about who they are as an authentic person and not afraid to walk in their truth. By being able to express that to others and not be limited by both internalexternal factors, one can live an overall healthy life. The first session with me isn't a typical, formal experience. I like to think of two people just having a "conversation ". Although I do like to get a sense of your background, who you are, and what you may have challenges with, I believe developing a good rapport and healthy therapeutic connection is vital from the beginning.

It is my passion for people and relationships that led me to this profession. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and AASECT Certified Sex Therapist, I enjoy helping couples identify areas for improvement in their relationship and find ways to re-connect and build a healthier, more satisfying relationship. I also enjoy working with individuals searching for better ways to manage stress, anger, depression and anxiety. Assisting clients in identifying their strengths and self-worth as well as ways to adjust to life-changes and transitions (i.e. grief, job-changes, relocation, etc.) are among some of the common presenting issues I've successfully helped clients overcome. I am able to do this by meeting you where you are on your journey, using a therapeutic process that focuses on your needs and goals.

Are you in a relationship that you aren't sure is right for you? Do you find that you would like to be more connected to significant people in your life but find yourself struggling to create the intimacy you desire? It is human nature to want to be connected to other people, yet many of us put walls up and make that connection difficult. Or we may gravitate to relationships that are not healthy for us. We may continue with old habits that at some point served a purpose in our lives, but as we grow we find that the more we continue operating in the same patterns we get less of what we actually want in our relationships. I can help you identify patterns that keep you stuck and prevent you from connecting the way you would like to in your relationships. I can help you learn new ways of being in a relationship and connecting. If you are reading this you are aware that something you are doing is no longer working, something needs to change. Healing and growth are possible and you can have the relationships that you want. I view therapy as a process, a journey of discovery and learning. As your therapist I will be part of your journey by providing a nonjudgmental and supportive atmosphere. My goal is to create a safe space where you feel free to express your deepest concerns, thoughts and emotions. I believe that in order to move forward in our lives it is essential to deal with emotional pain, anxiety and stress we may be carrying. Therapy can help recognize and face unresolved pain and conflict that may be affecting you in negative ways. I believe that the client therapist relationship is the most important part of therapy. Through our relationship my hope is that you acquire an improved understanding of yourself and attain balance in your life. I can help you find the answers that lie within you. I have experience working with a wide range of issues including relationship issues, intimacy, motherhood, parenting, anxiety, life transitions, family conflicts & emotional concerns.

Painful feelings are not a sign of weakness nor, are they your fault. There is relief and, there is hope. Our first hour together is free. I do this because this time should only be for you. You should be the one to decide if you feel comfortable with us working together. Your level of comfort and openness is important to me. You should feel free to ask any questions you may have without feeling any pressure to get "something" done. In the past, most families have had the stability of living in one place with resources such as grandparents and lifelong friends. Now, we move, change jobs, and may have blended or single parent families. Our resources may no longer be there for us. Life's challenges can make us feel powerless, frustrated, depressed and isolated. These feelings can create anguish that feels tortuous, and at times unrelenting. Pushing them aside just doesn't seem to work anymore. Since these feelings are unseen, they are not easily understood. Unfortunately, we may think these feelings are a sign of weakness and we think we should be able to "just get over it." It takes strength and courage to reach out, ask for help, and commit to discovery and change. Life's challenges can cause feelings of hopelessness, sadness, and fear. Sometimes, it may seem these challenges are overwhelming. These feelings actually expose us to more illness and physical pain and also affects our judgment, decision making, and personal relationships. If you are reading this, then you are reading with hope. Hope with understanding and help, can bring you relief.
