About me

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through various life’s challenges. It is very difficult to meet the demands of everyday life when you haven't healed from past trauma and new challenges continue to surface. Overtime, this is often how we start to experience stress in our bodies and minds. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues or grief, I am here to help. Together we will form a therapeutic alliance, identify your needs, goals, and work towards healing. My professional strength is knowing how to help people become a better version of themselves.

At the heart of my practice is the foundational desire to build an authentic, therapeutic connection because real change happens with a genuine relationship. I take the time to understand who you are, what matters most to you, and what you need right now. Then I offer practical tools and guidance to challenge you to work towards your identified goals.

As a culturally responsive and inclusive counselor, I honor your unique identity and lived experiences. We will not focus only on your symptoms but we'll consider the whole person; as stressors, environmental factors, etc. are equally important to consider for true holistic healing. Together, we’ll work toward the goals you define, at your pace!
