I work with teens 16 years+ and adults who are navigating anxiety, depression, identity questions, trauma, ADHD, and self esteem struggles. Many of my clients come to therapy trying to understand themselves better and figure out why certain patterns keep showing up in their lives.
As a parent and therapist, I understand how life experiences, family dynamics, and past challenges shape who we become. Clients often describe me as open minded, supportive, and empowering. I aim to create a space where you can be honest about what you are going through while also feeling encouraged to grow and move forward.
I believe therapy should be a space where you feel seen without having to over-explain yourself. My role is to help you reconnect with your strengths, deepen your relationships, and move through life with greater self-trust and ease.
Hello and welcome! If you're feeling anxious or disconnected from yourself, I'd be happy to support you on your counseling journey. I work with adults and children in navigating family transitions like divorce or co-parenting, healing from emotionally complicated or absent parent relationships, managing relationship and dating patterns, identity development, and building healthier connections. I'm a dedicated master's-level therapist with expertise in EMDR, REBT, Solution-Focused, and Gestalt therapy. As a certified 200-hr RYT, I integrate yoga and meditation to enhance healing, balance, and well-being.
I’ve been trained extensively in EMDR. EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals process experiences. It works by engaging bilateral stimulation, such as side-to-side eye movements and tapping leading to reduced emotional impact and improved mental well-being.
My practice extends to navigating the complexities of childhood trauma, offering support for both emotional and physical well-being. Additionally, I provide a compassionate approach to help you overcome life's challenges. Let's work together to build resilience and create positive change in your life.

Find the right couples therapist for you
Headway makes it easy to find support for your relationship — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Augusta, GA
Searching for couples therapists in Augusta starts with naming what you and your partner want support with. Couples therapy may focus on communication patterns, recurring conflict, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, parenting disagreements, or marriage counseling. Not all therapists have specific training in working with couples, so it helps to look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their profiles.
In a mid-sized city like Augusta, finding one therapist who fits both partners’ needs, location preferences, and schedules can take extra planning. Some couples prefer in-person sessions near Augusta, while others use virtual appointments to make scheduling easier across work, caregiving, or commute needs. As you compare Augusta therapists, look at appointment availability, session structure, therapy approach, and whether a brief phone consultation is offered. Reading each therapist’s bio can help you see how they describe their work with couples before you book.
Couples therapy in Augusta can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who work with couples, see whether they accept insurance, and review their availability upfront. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm your coverage before booking. You can review profiles, compare fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
