About

Hello!
I am a professional counselor licensed in Georgia with over 15 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship issues, family and interpersonal conflict, self-esteem issues, parenting problems, and career challenges. I have also helped many people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse and grief and loss.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I do not judge. My integrative approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and person-centered approaches. I will tailor our sessions to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek 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!

Is Online Therapy the Right Choice for Your Mental Health Journey?

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and major life transitions – online therapy can be an effective alternative to in-person sessions. Research and clinical experience indicate that, for most of these issues, virtual counseling performs comparably to traditional face-to-face therapy.

One of the clearest benefits is flexibility. People can connect with a therapist in the format that fits their life best – whether by video call, phone conversation, live chat, or in-app messaging – making it easier to keep appointments and maintain momentum in treatment.

Licensed professionals provide care through these remote methods, and clients have the option to switch therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. Online therapy can be a practical and accessible way to get support while managing everyday responsibilities and commitments.
