Virtual & in-person • 10 mi away • Dacula, GA


I believe therapy works best when you feel understood, respected, and supported. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each client's needs, helping you explore challenges, recognize patterns, build practical skills, and create meaningful change.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Certified Professional Counselor Supervisor (CPCS), and hold a Master of Divinity (M.Div.), with more than 20 years of experience in behavioral health. I work with children, adults, and families experiencing anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, trauma, and challenges with self-worth.

My approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and relational. When desired, I also incorporate Christian faith and spirituality into therapy.

My goal is to provide a compassionate, safe space where you can make sense of your story, discover your strengths, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

When trying to do it all yourself is no longer working....stress, anxiety, depression and life transitions can feel heavy and burdensome. Would you like to put that down? You need understanding, insight and someone to dig in with what is going on within all the layers that make you...YOU. We all need help sometimes to work through expected and unexpected life events. You may be surprised at how you are responding or that you are researching treatment options period.

Greeting!

I am a seasoned professional continuing to study and learn the most impactful ways to lessen human suffering and promote self love in all. Beginning my practice decades ago as a combat trauma therapist, I have found myself dealing with the traumas of early life and relationships with most my adolescent and adult clients. I believe counseling can offer many “tools”, to cope, however, I prefer to help people heal so that coping becomes an infrequent need.
