Life can feel incredibly heavy when anxiety, grief, trauma, depression, or major life changes begin affecting your ability to move forward. You may feel overwhelmed by emotions, exhausted from carrying burdens on your own, or unsure where to turn next. Sometimes the hardest part is feeling like no one truly understands what you've been through. I work with adults and older adults experiencing anxiety, depression, panic disorders, grief and loss, PTSD, trauma, stress, bipolar disorder, and anger management concerns. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling emotionally drained, discouraged, or disconnected from the peace and fulfillment they want for themselves. My goal is to provide a compassionate and supportive space where you can slow down, feel heard, make sense of your experiences, and begin moving toward healing with greater confidence and hope.
I believe that therapy should feel supportive, practical and real. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or major life transitions and just want to feel like themselves again. This is a space where you can talk openly without judgment while also gaining tools that actually help in everyday life. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, confident, and clear about your next steps.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 12 years of experience supporting individuals and families through some of life’s most difficult seasons. I’ve worked in community mental health, court systems, and outpatient programs — serving youth, adults, and families navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, and major life transitions.
If you’re someone who has had to be “the strong one,” the responsible one, or the one who figures it out for everyone else — I see you.
Many of the people I work with are high-functioning but internally exhausted. They show up for work, for family, for everyone — but struggle privately with overwhelm, burnout, shame, or frustration.
My goal is to create a space where you don’t have to perform. You don’t have to shrink. You don’t have to explain cultural context. You can show up fully — and we work from there.
I have 30 years of experience of helping those with those who have mental health, addictions and relationship problems. I am honored to help all who seek help with any of these issues. I help clients find solutions in a safe and non-judgmental place.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Seeking help can be one of the hardest parts, so congratulations on taking that step! I’ve been practicing for 15 years.

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.
