Hi, there, and welcome to my bio page! First, let me commend you for taking the brave steps to reach out for support in this season of your life. Whether we work together or not, you are seeking a healthier and more abundant life, and I applaud you for that.
I am a licensed therapist in Georgia with 29 years of professional work experience. I've helped clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self esteem and confidence, relationship issues, and coping with life changes. I have also provided professional coaching to people who wanted to change certain behaviors and mindsets and gain more vision for their present and future. I'm a big believer in becoming aware of and gradually shifting thought patterns and beliefs that impact perception, actions, and feelings, which leads to more joy and peace. I may ask questions and offer feedback and tips for reducing certain symptoms during our times together. Regardless of why you are seeking support and the goals you want to reach in therapy, we'll collaborate to find the approach that is best for you.
I'm committed to creating an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared and explored without fear of judgment. My previous clients have shared that they find me to be a warm, understanding, calm, and attentive. I'd be honored to walk with you along your path of self-discovery and healing. Thanks for learning a bit about me, and hopefully I'll have an opportunity to learn about you. Take care!
