Hey! I am a Board Certified, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia. I’ve worked with clients of all ages and multicultural backgrounds. I have a bachelors degree in Child and Family Development and a masters degree in Counseling and Development. I've worked at a non-profit Crisis Center, helping survivors and co-survivors of trauma navigate their journey toward healing. Most of my clients were younger or middle age adults who worked full-time, all while trying to heal from the traumatic effects of their trauma. Understandably, depression and anxiety became a concern. I've also worked with past clients dealing with depression, anxiety, career challenges, grief and loss, and interpersonal violence in various settings, to include college counseling centers and a state funded community services board. I passionately believe meeting clients where they are is my primary role of being a mental health counselor. Day after day I hear the many barriers that clients face in receiving the mental health care they deserve, such as lack of transportation, cost of therapeutic services, and the stigma of entering a counselors office, and I look forward to being your counselor and want you to know that you are not alone despite any circumstances you may be going through. Providing a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment that aide’s individuals in creating the change they are seeking in their lives and relationships is the style I use when working with clients. My approach is collaborative and eclectic, tailored to each client’s unique needs. At the core are compassion, affirmation, exploration, and trust that help reshape emotional experience, understanding, and behavior. I looking forward to working with you!
