With more than two decades of experience as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia, I've had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, from private practice to psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment centers, and domestic violence shelters. I've also worked with juvenile justice and forensic facilities, as well as child advocacy centers. One of the most rewarding aspects of my work has been partnering with local law enforcement agencies and district attorneys as an expert witness in trauma and abuse cases. In fact, I've conducted over 300 forensic interviews in several metro Atlanta counties. In addition to my direct work in the field, I've also served as a governor-appointed Executive Board Member on the State of Georgia Sexual Offender Registration Review Board for over 10 years. And as a published author on a variety of mental health topics, I've had the opportunity to share my knowledge and expertise with others. I've also taught psychology at the undergraduate level and conducted workshops on a range of topics, including relationship issues, parenting skills, stress management, and mandated child abuse reporting. With my wealth of experience and passion for helping others, I'm confident that I can make a positive impact on your life. I hold a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree from Emory University and both a Master of Education (M.Ed) and an Education Specialist (Ed.S) degree from the University of Florida. As a registered out-of-state telehealth provider for the State of Florida (TPMC4), I am also authorized to provide therapy to Floridians. Additionally, I am a Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS). I help countless people "figure it out".
