Therapist

Taking the first step toward change can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. With more than 30 years of experience in behavioral health, I have had the privilege of working with individuals of diverse backgrounds, and I've helped adults and adolescents navigate emotional challenges, addiction, behavioral concerns, and co-occurring disorders. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth and lasting change. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and goal-focused, helping you build on your strengths, identify meaningful goals, and develop practical strategies to create a healthier, more fulfilling life.

I specialize in working with adults and adolescents (ages 16 and older) experiencing anxiety, depression, life transitions, addiction, emotional challenges, and dual diagnoses. I also have extensive experience helping older teens and young adults navigate adjustment difficulties, emotional concerns, and behavioral challenges.

Hi there!

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for helping women navigate life’s challenges and reconnect with their most empowered selves. I specialize in working with women experiencing Depression, Anxiety, ADHD, Eating Disorders and women’s issues, including identity, life transitions, self-worth, and emotional overwhelm.

Whether you're managing the weight of daily stressors, navigating complex emotional patterns, or feeling stuck in cycles that no longer serve you, I provide a warm, collaborative space where your experiences are heard and validated. Together, we’ll explore the root of what’s holding you back and work toward practical, personalized strategies to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

My goal is to support you in rediscovering your voice, setting healthy boundaries, and prioritizing your well-being without guilt. Therapy is not just about coping — it's about thriving.

Let’s take the journey together — to heal, to grow, and to put you back at the center of your life.

Happy patient looking away

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 Therapist in Gainesville

Searching for therapists in Gainesville starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare Gainesville therapists, look for specialties listed in their profiles and note the care approaches they use, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their style.

In a smaller city like Gainesville, the number of local in-person offices may be more limited than in larger Georgia markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a licensed Georgia therapist. You can also narrow your search by appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and scheduling fit in one place.

Therapy in Gainesville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person care when available. You can browse therapists in Gainesville, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
