I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, practicing in the Atlanta area since 2006. I have a passion for helping people regain control over their lives after experiencing difficult events that have impacted how they see the world and themselves. My philosophy in therapy is that you are your own expert on your life and hold the key to making changes that you want. It is my role and privilege, as your therapist, to walk along side of you, providing support and assisting you with tools that you can carry with you on your journey.
I have training in trauma focused, evidenced based therapies, and strong background in working with Veterans/Active Duty Service Members and their families, sexual trauma survivors, and people and families impacted by chronic/life threatening illnesses, such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).
I applaud you for taking the first step towards feeling better, which is often times so difficult to do. I look forward to walking with you on your path to a new beginning.
