Hello and welcome! I’m a ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) License in GA, MD, and North Dakota. I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care across the lifespan. I hold a master’s degree in nursing with specialized training in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and medication management, as well as psychotherapy.
My practice focuses on treating a range of conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, addiction recovery and perinatal mental health concerns. I integrate a client-centered approach that may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and lifestyle interventions alongside medication when appropriate.
I believe in building a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in trust, respect, and collaboration. Whether you're seeking support for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
A little but about myself besides my profession. I am an African American woman from Detroit, MI. I am a wife and a mother. As a wife and mother, there are many challenges...multitasking, running a home, working, raising a family and many more. I know full well how challenging this can be. All this being said, I understand “Life” quite a bit. Given this opportunity, I can help guide and support you through your challenges to a more fulfilling and peaceful life through a variety of interventions such as EMDR, CBT, insight oriented and DBT modalities.
As a multicultural counselor, I understand the importance of your perspectives being heard and understood.
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with over 4 years of experience, passionately working with adults of diverse ethnicities and backgrounds to manage anxiety, depression, trauma, post-traumatic stress syndrome, grief, family conflict, and relationship issues.
I received my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Capella University.
Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step, and I strive to make that step feel as comfortable as possible. I believe healing happens when you feel safe, supported, and genuinely understood. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as you are, without judgment, pressure, or the need to have everything figured out.
I work with individuals ages 12 and older who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Whether you're facing a recent challenge or carrying experiences that have weighed on you for years, we'll work together to better understand what's happening beneath the surface and move toward meaningful, lasting change.
I see therapy as a partnership. You'll be met with compassion, curiosity, and respect as we work toward your goals at a pace that feels right for you.
Relationships can sometimes feel like you are speaking two different languages. You both love each other but argue about the smallest things. Feeling like you have to raise your voice just to be heard? Then feeling hurt because you are still misunderstood?
This is common for many couples. I can help give you the tools you need to really talk to each other again. To redirect that passion in a healthy direction and teach you how to truly rediscover each other!

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Decatur, GA
Searching for therapists in Decatur starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare therapists in Decatur, GA, look for specialties and approaches that fit your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples therapy. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their approach.
Decatur has local therapy private practices and in-person talk therapy options, but appointment availability may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Virtual therapy can expand your options beyond nearby offices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Georgia. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, provides virtual or in-person sessions, and offers a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, experience, and fit.
Therapy in Decatur can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, shows estimated costs after your benefits are verified, and lets you book directly when you are 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.
