I bring both clinical expertise and real-world experience into our work together. I understand that many people come to therapy feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start and I meet clients with patience, respect, and honesty.

I believe therapy should feel collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in safety. I don’t rush the process or expect clients to have everything figured out. We move at a pace that feels sustainable, while still working toward meaningful change.

Clients should also know that I value direct communication and transparency. I will offer reflections and tools when helpful, but I will always honor your autonomy and lived experience. I do not believe in pathologizing survival responses, especially when they are shaped by trauma, systemic stress, or long-term caregiving roles.

Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered, a space where you can breathe, reflect, and begin to shift from surviving to living with greater clarity and intention.

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 Mental Health Therapist in Augusta, GA

Searching for therapists in Augusta starts with knowing what kind of support fits your needs. Some people look for help with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, or stress. Others may want a therapist with training in a specific approach, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care. As you compare Augusta therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy style, and experience that match what you want to focus on.

Augusta offers a range of therapy and counseling options, including in-person appointments near local neighborhoods and virtual sessions across Georgia. If local office availability is limited or your schedule varies, virtual therapy can make it easier to find a therapist who fits your calendar. You may also want to compare appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading each therapist’s profile can help you understand how they communicate, what they specialize in, and what sessions may look like.

Therapy in Augusta can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists in Augusta, enter your insurance details, review therapist bios, and book directly when you find a fit.
