About

Hi! I am a licensed professional counselor (licensed in Georgia) and board certified art therapist with 10 years of experience working in a variety of settings but primarily with developmentally disabled individuals in psychiatric hospitals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including schizophrenia, anger management, anti-social personality disorder, delusions, suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, parenting problems, and career challenges. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines humanistic, acceptance and commitment, and recovery-oriented cognitive therapy. I specialize in using art to help address emotionally stressful situations that are stored in the body such as trauma, grief, and addiction. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!
