About me

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Georgia with over a decade of experience helping individuals, couples, and families navigate stress, trauma, conflict, and major life transitions. My background spans clinical assessments, community mental health, crisis work, private practice, and supporting clients through complex emotional patterns that often go unspoken.

Many of the people I work with are high-functioning but overwhelmed—managing careers, families, relationships, or personal expectations while feeling anxious, stuck, or emotionally exhausted underneath. I often support clients dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, communication problems, stress, grief, and the long-term impact of traumatic or difficult life experiences.

My therapy style is warm, honest, and grounded. I’m not the “smile and nod” type—you’ll get real support, thoughtful questions, and a space where you don’t have to pretend everything is fine. I help you slow down, understand what’s happening internally, break unhelpful patterns, and build confidence in how you cope and communicate.

I pull from cognitive-behavioral strategies, trauma-informed care, strengths-based work, motivational interviewing, and practical emotional regulation and communication tools. Together, we’ll create a plan that fits you—not a generic template—and focus on steps that create meaningful change in your day-to-day life.

It takes courage to reach out and even more courage to be honest about what you’re carrying. If you’re looking for a therapist who will walk with you, challenge you with compassion, and support you as you regain clarity and balance, I’m here.

I look forward to working with you.
