I love working with children which is my specialty. I see children beginning at age 6. Today children face issues that were not present 10-15 years ago, things like the effects of social media, anxiety, bullying, divorce, low self esteem and many other issues. My goal is to help children through the use of play and art therapy techniques work though their issues. I also see adolescents and adults using person centered techniques and evidenced based treatments. I enjoy working with people.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Atlanta

Searching for therapists in Atlanta starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist has experience with those needs. Atlanta has a wide range of therapists across areas like Midtown, Buckhead, East Atlanta, Decatur, and beyond. Many people look for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, or work stress. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, training, and therapy style match what you want to work on. Bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or other forms of care.

In a major metro like Atlanta, having many choices can make the search more complex. Narrow your list by deciding what matters most for your schedule, location, and comfort with appointment format. Some people prefer an office near home, work, or transit routes, while others choose virtual appointments for more flexibility. It can also help to check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking gives you a clearer sense of how each Atlanta therapist communicates, what they focus on, and what a first session may look like.

Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists in Atlanta who match your preferences and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, compare therapist bios, and choose between in-person and virtual availability when you are ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
