About me

I am not perfect, nor do I have all the answers. But it is my belief that the answer is within everyone I service. As a counselor, I want you to consider me your tour guide. Along the journey, I will be present with you and point out important things. During the process, I will help equip you with the proper tools to improve your current state and overall quality of life. As a counselor, I am fair and consistent. I am authentic, sincere, and honest. I believe in humanism and being transparent. I want you to be able to trust me in the process and with your information. I promise to always be present during our time together. I will make suggestions, but ultimately the progress will govern the time we spend together. My approach is always person-centered but combines cognitive-behavioral, rational choice, humanistic, psychoeducation, and play techniques.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. I have over 10 years of experience working as a counselor. I obtained my Masters of Education in Counseling with a concentration in Clinical Mental Health from Delta State University. I have worked with clients ranging from ages 4 to geriatric. In that time, I have worked with an array of individuals with a variety of concerns including depression, anxiety, adjustment difficulty, self-esteem, ADHD, Schizophrenia, and Bipolar to name a few. I have worked with former offenders, Veterans, those with a history of neglect, abuse, and trauma. My experience also includes crisis services, adjustment disorders, substance abuse, in-patient, telehealth, in-home, and community-based services.

You have taken the first step to improve your quality of life. When you are ready, I will be there to provide the encouragement and support needed along the path of establishing and achieving goals. Thank you and I look forward to working with you.

PJ is my third therapist! I was about to be done with therapy until I found PJ! She asks questions to get you thinking, she listens and she in tuned with your needs and concerns. She’s the truth!

PJ is an amazing therapist! I came to her when I needed therapy again and was pregnant. I wanted to get my anxiety and intrusive thoughts under control while pregnant and just get back in the right head space. PJ helped me do just that over the course of about half a year and I am headed into motherhood more confident than ever and in a season of my life where my anxiety is at ease. I highly recommend PJ to anyone!
