Greetings! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Georgia. I am originally from New York and have over 12 years of counseling experience. I have and continue to work with clients who have had challenges with anxiety, depression, relationships, military families, parenting, foster care, changing careers, domestic violence, trauma, and emotional abuse. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I am committed to helping everyday people who experience everyday problems. I believe in allowing clients to set their own treatment goals and help them when they are unable to identify where to begin. I use humor and a gentle, yet direct approach during therapy. I pull from various theories to help clients but focus on how one’s thoughts, feelings and actions are connected and play a role into maladaptive behaviors. I enjoy engaging clients in the therapeutic process using various tools, therapeutic activities and homework assignments for clients who need "a little something extra". Please take a moment to read my testimonials! It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Angelie

I was a hairdresser in Atlanta for 20 years listening to client’s problems while working to make their outside beautiful. I often wondered how I could help with their inner self/beauty. Then my daughter started college and she talked me into going with her. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Mercer University in 1997. A few years later I finished my Masters of Arts in Psychology from Argosy University, and then completed my Ph.D. from Northcentral in 2011. I am an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) in Atlanta Georgia. I worked in a private hospital for addiction and psych patients for almost 25 years. I also worked in private practice two days a week; 10 of those years. I recently retired. Presently I work on Thursdays at Georgia Recovery Centers with mandated clients.
