Sometimes the hardest part of therapy is showing up before you even know what you want out of it. If you're feeling stuck, frustrated, or like something needs to change but you can't quite name what, that's exactly where we start. I work with teens, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger, and the kind of life experiences that feel too big to sort out alone. You don't need to come in with clear goals. We'll figure that out together.

Finding a therapist who truly gets your life can feel like a long search. One who sees more than a diagnosis, who doesn't need you to explain yourself before you can get to work. If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, that search often comes with an extra layer: the quiet work of figuring out whether this therapist is actually safe, or whether you'll spend your sessions educating them. With me, you won't have to do that work.

I'm a licensed therapist with more than 22 years of experience in mental health and addiction treatment. I've worked in community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, correctional settings, and private practice. I've sat with people in some of the hardest moments of their lives and know how to meet them there without flinching.

My primary focus is LGBTQ+ individuals and couples. That includes navigating identity, coming out at any stage of life, relationship dynamics unique to queer and same-sex partnerships, internalized stigma, minority stress, and everything that comes with living authentically in a world that doesn't always make that easy. I also work with anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD, substance use and dual diagnosis, men's issues, and stress and burnout.

Healing and growth doesn't require having it all figured out before you start — it begins with curiosity. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, difficult relationships, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can be a place where you slow down, make sense of your experiences, and begin taking steps towards your best possible self.

I'm an LPC in Georgia with over 3 years of experience working with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction, and I especially work well with people who know something needs to change but aren't quite sure where to begin. I've worked especially well with people with addictions, looking for stability and self-sufficiency.

You are the person everyone else counts on, and somewhere along the way you lost track of what you actually need. I work with women ages 25 to 55 who are navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, and the pressure of careers, relationships, and life transitions that keep shifting underneath them. Over the past seven years I have sat with women in the middle of burnout, big decisions, grief, and trauma they had never said out loud. The heaviest weight will always be the front door. If you have read this far, the hardest part may already be behind you.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Augusta

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.

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