I have over 20 years of experience serving others in some capacity. I am caring, understanding, and dedicated to help you make positive progress in your personal and professional live. I believe who you are makes a difference and you matter.
I am a licensed professional counselor in Georgia and Alabama and have been working as a therapist for 16 years. Currently, I am only seeing female clients in order to align with my clinical focus. As a Christian therapist, I specialize in faith-integrated counseling for women who wish to bring their spirituality into sessions. I offer therapy that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based practices, helping clients align their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. While this is my area of specialty, I work with individuals from all walks of life and honor each client’s unique beliefs and values.
My experience is broad in that I have worked with clients of all ages with a variety of issues and diagnoses, especially with those facing trauma, recovering from addictions, coping with anxiety and depression, and moving through life changes such as grief and relationship/family changes. I hope to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to take the first steps towards change, and I am here to support you in your journey.
The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Augusta, GA
Finding OCD therapists in Augusta starts with looking for a therapist trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination concerns, repeated reassurance seeking, or mental rituals. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who list OCD, ERP, or cognitive behavioral therapy for OCD in their bios.
Augusta offers a range of mental health care options, and virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while still keeping care accessible. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home, work, or school, while others choose virtual care for scheduling flexibility. When reviewing OCD therapists, pay attention to whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and describe specific OCD experience. A therapist who lists OCD as a focus area may differ from one who clearly describes ERP training or structured OCD support.
Therapy in Augusta can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway makes it easier to compare OCD therapists, view estimated out-of-pocket costs after your plan is verified, read detailed bios, and book directly when you are ready.
