About

I am licensed in Georgia with 16 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress, depression, trauma, and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & family conflicts. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Additionally, I have expertise for working with teenagers from the ages of 13-19 years old. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) which are both effective treatment modalities with adolescents and other populations. As a therapist, I have been able to help adolescences who are struggling with academic-related stress, bullying, peer pressure, family issues, past traumas, parenting styles, and other problems that all contribute to a teenager’s mental health or overall wellbeing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
