Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others, longing to feel known, safe, and whole? I take a holistic approach to support clients struggling identity development, relational issues, depression, meaning-making, boundaries, anxiety, sexual health and identity, and spiritual integration. I respect and honor all identities and strive to create a safe and welcoming therapeutic space for all.

I am a licensed MFT who has been in practice for over 15 years. I have extensive experience treating a wide variety of issues and psychological disorders from the most mild to the most severe. I work with adults and adolescents. My approach is warm, positive and compassionate. I can help you to achieve your personal goals, more effectively manage your emotions and stressors and develop strategies that will promote positive self-growth and lead you to and a more satisfying life.
I have worked in a wide variety of settings in addition to my private practice including schools, residential homes and outpatient treatment facilities. My specialties include anxiety and depressive disorders, stress management, crisis counseling, grief counseling, and relationships.

My goal is to help every client be the truest, healthiest version of themselves. Career challenges, stage of life transitions, relational conflict, and social circumstances can all be sources of stress and produce feelings of inadequacy and isolation. Addressing these challenges not only increases self-awareness; it bolsters self-esteem, fuels empathy and increases our capacity for healthy interpersonal connection. Ultimately, these are the elements that allow us to weather the challenges life sends our way and to thrive in both personal and professional settings.

I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor since 2008. I graduated from Georgia State in 2005 with a Masters in Professional Counseling. For the last 20 years I have been working with North Point Ministries and currently working as a Director in the Care Network.
I work with adults navigating a difficult season in life including; boundary issues, divorce/separation, marriage, anxiety, self-worth, co-dependency, life transitions and grief.
After 13 years of marriage, I navigated through a difficult and devastating divorce. In the midst of heartbreaking brokenness, my faith in God strengthened as I trusted in His grace and promises. I am now happily remarried and have a strong desire to help women in their own journey.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing quality online telehealth services for adult residents of Florida, Virginia, Vermont, Massachusetts & Georgia. If you feel alone in what you are going through or stuck in the same toxic cycle of negative emotions and behaviors, I can help! Since the start of my career in 2006 I have worked with victims of trauma and abuse, individuals in recovery, women, and high- level executives. My clients come to therapy seeking relief from persistent depression, anxiety, the residual impacts of trauma, low self-esteem, career stress, and the general life stress of living through a pandemic.

My approach to working with clients is genuine, down to earth, practical, and always informed by evidence-based practices. The therapy hour quickly becomes a time when clients can share their deepest fears and concerns without fear of judgment. Clients walk away with practical techniques specific to their personal goals.

Life's demands don't stop when there is a pandemic, or we experience a crisis or loss. It can be easy to neglect our own mental wellness, feel disconnected, become overwhelmed or feel trapped by our circumstances. You deserve to be seen. To live a life that is intentional, inspired, and peaceful. Seeking counseling is a brave step in the right direction.

Welcome! You have taken the first step into discovering the importance of your mental well-being. Life is filled with unexpected challenges and often we have difficulty facing them. This is where having a safe space and a non-judgmental therapeutic environment can assist with your journey towards increased wellness. My specialties are Anxiety, Depression, Life Transitions, and Workplace/Caregiver Stressors.
