Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Douglasville, GA covered by United Healthcare

Hi, I am a licensed psychotherapist with the primary focus of treating trauma and grief using science and holistic embodied approaches. Personally, I am also a trauma survivor, mother, and wife with a blended family. My background and professional education help to shape how I approach therapy using a realistic and person-centered lens.

I love working with children which is my specialty. I see children beginning at age 6. Today children face issues that were not present 10-15 years ago, things like the effects of social media, anxiety, bullying, divorce, low self esteem and many other issues. My goal is to help children through the use of play and art therapy techniques work though their issues. I also see adolescents and adults using person centered techniques and evidenced based treatments. I enjoy working with people.
