About me

Hello!!! I am a licensed professional counselor licensed in Georgia with over 9 years of experience working as a mental health counselor. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, self-esteem issues, ADHD, career challenges and relationship issues. I also helped people who have challenges with substance abuse and co-occurring disorders.

My counseling style is warm and interactive. My belief when it comes to interacting with anyone is to treat him/her with respect, to be compassionate, sensitive and to meet him/her where he/she is at. I don't believe in stigmatizing labels or judging others. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, person-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, narrative therapy and rational-emotive behavioral therapy. I will create your treatment plan to meet your specific needs.

It takes courage for one to seek out counseling. Therefore, as your counselor, my role is to assist you with gaining insight, challenge your thoughts and negative beliefs that act as roadblocks for growth and to simply be the listening ear without judgment. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Celestia is an extremely skilled, intuitive practitioner. She knows when to ask good questions, and when to share insights. She takes the time to get to know you so that when she challenges you, it's from a trusting, safe space. I would recommend her to anyone 1000 times over

Never thought I would enjoy therapy. Celestia listens, is encouraging and makes me think about things in different ways that have come to be beneficial for me in everyday life. Look forward to our weekly sessions.
