Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships
I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist in Georgia. I graduated from Mercer University School of Medicine with a Masters in Marriage and Family therapy. I have experience working with children, couples and families, especially as it relates to addiction, trauma and family relationship dynamics. I have worked as a Program therapist for community mental health programs, where I worked with addiction and mental health diagnoses that range from depression and anxiety to personality disorders. In addition to my clinical experience, I also teach trauma recovery groups and LGBTQ+ support groups.
My expertise is in the area of depression, addiction, anxiety and trauma as well as gender and sexuality and relationship difficulties. I am EMDR trained and Gottman couples counseling level one and two certified. My approach is to meet each person where they are regarding their readiness to make changes in their life. I treat everyone I work with with compassion and the respect that they deserve. I provide a judgement free and safe space for you to feel free to be who you are while you share. It takes courage to take those first steps in seeking a more fulfilling and happier life and even more to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take those steps I am here to support and help you on that journey.

Many people wonder whether remote therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be similarly effective as traditional in-person care.
One major benefit is the flexibility it offers – clients can connect in the way that fits their needs, choosing video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility can make it easier to incorporate therapy into a busy schedule.
These services are delivered by licensed professionals and therapists, and clients have the option to switch providers if they feel a different fit would be better. For many people, online therapy provides a practical, effective route to get support for everyday mental health concerns.
