I received my Masters Degree from the University of Georgia. I specialize in assisting individuals deal with Depression and Anxiety as well as Co-dependency, Relationships, Substance Abuse and Sexual Identity. I have additional experience in dealing with difficult physical illnesses and End of life and Hospice decisions. My personal experience has lead me from being a practicing Musician in my Youth, coming through Addiction issues, a heart attack and stroke and several failed relationships in between; to being a prosperous, sober and happy individual who seeks to share the wisdom that has been so freely shared with. me. I have a multi-disciplinary approach that includes but is not limited to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy. For the past three years I have been a therapist to other therapists, but have recently made the decision to offer my skills to clients who desire to live their best life as the best version of themselves. If you are ready to change, I am here to help.
