I provide therapy to young adults who are coping with the stressors of college. I routinely help people who are coping with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and impulse control problems. In addition to my general practice, I specialize in helping people who have a history of sexual abuse and/or sexual acting out. I also conduct psychological evaluations that can assist with understanding the root of the problem and can clarify a person's diagnosis, which can help with determining what type of treatment and/or medication may be needed. There are many other therapists in my group private practice that offer additional therapy services such as substance abuse treatment, trauma treatment (including EMDR), treatment for ADHD, treatment that addresses gender identity concerns, etc. The cost of therapy depends on which therapist you see (master's level versus doctoral level). In addition to the insurances listed below, I am also on Wellcare and CareSource.

Everyone deserves a space that is completely dedicated to them. As a therapist, my goal is to provide just that—a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you can be your authentic self. I work with college students navigating a variety of topics, including anxiety, depression, emotional regulation, interpersonal/family conflict, self-esteem, transitions, and more. I approach therapy by considering how your environment has impacted you, meaning we will explore how your past and present circumstances have shaped your perspectives, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. I draw from numerous therapeutic techniques and theories, tailoring your treatment to fit the unique person that you are. College life can be both exciting and overwhelming, with unique challenges, social pressures, and identity exploration. No matter the current challenge, I am passionate about helping my clients cultivate greater self-awareness, resilience, and well-being, empowering them to lead fulfilling and meaningful lives. Let's get started! **Please note: I offer a free phone consultation to help you decide if I may be a good fit for your therapy journey!**

Life can be full of instability and stuck spots, especially with the world in such flux. I am a psychotherapist that uses talk therapy, creative expression, and embodied techniques to help people get unstuck and move through tough times. We'll work together to bring out your strengths and strategize to solve problems. Some clients are comfortable with creative therapy techniques (such as art and drama) and others prefer to focus on talking things through -- we will work to find an approach that feels right to you. I'm committed to compassion, understanding and honesty. I'll work within your comfort but also challenge you to work hard for yourself. I invite you to reach out via email or phone to see if I'm a good fit for you!

Is your past making you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected? You don't have to navigate these challenges alone. I specialize in helping individuals overcome trauma, anxiety, grief/loss, attachment wounds, and life transitions. I provide a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your emotions, build resilience, and find a path toward healing and fulfillment. I believe that accepting your emotions is a powerful step in the healing journey. My therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy, trust, and proven practices that empower you to gain insight, build coping strategies, and foster positive change. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based approach that helps reprocess distressing memories, reduce emotional reactivity, and create lasting relief. Additionally, I incorporate somatic modalities to support nervous system regulation, helping you reconnect with a sense of safety and balance in your everyday life. Taking the first step toward therapy can be scary, but reaching out is a sign of strength. I offer a free consultation to answer your questions, explore your needs, and see if we’re the right fit.

Helping You Be True – Therapy for Trauma Survivors, Marginalized People, & Healthy Masculinity: Life can be too much for all of us at times – and what gets us through this overwhelm can sometimes limit us later on. Whether you are overwhelmed now or caught in patterns that limit you, I want to help free you to enjoy more meaningful experiences in life. As a Licensed Psychologist with over 15 years of clinical experience, I specialize in working with adults who are struggling with how they have been hurt and limited by others and have developed patterns that limit them and their relationships. I work especially well with adult survivors of childhood trauma, people with marginalized identities, and helping men develop healthy masculinity. Together, we can help you heal your wounds, grow beyond your present limits, and feel more free to be true to yourself. Skilled therapists are inherently understanding, accepting, and genuine. In addition to these, my clients experience me as particularly warm, calming, sensitive, and lighthearted. It is important to me that in every session, we make space to honor the depth of your struggles, you feel truly valued, and we help you make manageable progress toward your goals. This progress comes from integrating the best available research with my clinical expertise and your unique needs, values, and preferences. In therapy, I primarily use a contemporary psychoanalytic approach that explores how you respond to your emotions, how this influences your relationships, and how these patterns might be reenacted between us. By helping you heal and grow, we will work toward changing your patterns to be true to you. I am committed to therapy because I know firsthand the transformative power of how sharing my struggles with a skilled therapist who is willing to join me can make them easier to bear and overcome. I have developed my specialties with trauma survivors, marginalized people, and healthy masculinity to contribute to a more socially just world in which everyone can heal, social systems improve, and cultures become more compassionate. Beyond my above specialties, I provide therapy for the wide range of concerns listed below. I meet with clients in-person at my calm, comfortable, and private office in a professional business park in East Cobb, Georgia. Due to my office being up one flight of stairs, please inform me if you have any physical accessibility needs. If you are ready for us to begin working together, call or email me or visit my website below to schedule an initial consultation! If you still have questions about whether we are a good fit, call, email, or visit my website to schedule a free 15-minute virtual consultation. I look forward to working together and Helping You Be True!

I support students and young adults who are trying to hold it together while life feels anything but stable. Whether you're dealing with anxiety from academic pressures, family stress, financial responsibilities, or sudden life changes, therapy can be a place to figure things out in a calm, nonjudgmental space. As a bilingual and bicultural therapist, I also hold space for students who are trying to keep everything together but feel like they're cracking under the pressure of family expectations, competing cultural identities, and the weight of meeting their own needs all at once. Therapy with me is a place where you don’t have to feel alone in your journey anymore or have it all figured out. We’ll move through things one step at a time, and little by little, build the tools you need to help you feel more grounded and in control.
