The town of Auburn was incorporated in 1892 after the railroad made it to their area. They have a wonderful southern charm and a close-knit community they are proud of. The townsfolk are also proud of their history and have a whole group of buildings on the National Register of Historic Places.

Visiting some of these historic sites is a great way to relax while learning more about the City of Auburn. If you’re having trouble relaxing or are concerned about any other emotional or mental issues, it would be a good idea to reach out to one of the many mental health care experts in the Auburn area. There is always someone available to help you with any issues you may have.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia. I graduated in 2004 from Richmont Graduate University. Since that time I have worked with people of all ages and numerous concerns. I particularly enjoy working with those individuals suffering from grief, trauma, and process addictions such as pornography. I believe a client centered approach is crucial regardless of the therapeutic interventions used. Research consistently shows that the therapeutic relationship itself (rather than the technique used) is what produces most meaningful change. In terms of ideologies I often use CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
