Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Lagrange, GA

Recovery doesn't happen all at once. Whether you're struggling with substance use, anxiety, trauma, or the emotional weight of life's challenges, taking the first step can feel overwhelming. You may be tired of feeling stuck, carrying guilt, or wondering if lasting change is really possible. You don't have to navigate that journey alone. For more than 20 years, I've partnered with individuals experiencing substance use and addiction and anxiety, helping them rebuild confidence, strengthen resilience, and create healthier, more fulfilling lives. I believe meaningful healing begins with feeling understood, supported, and empowered, and my goal is to provide a compassionate space where lasting recovery and personal growth can take root.

Are you overwhelmed, having difficulty functioning, or just feeling unlike yourself lately? As someone who was born in Nigeria and has personally navigated cultural adjustment and its stressors, I understand how complex it can feel to find your footing. Drawing on both my lived experience and professional training, I meet you where you are and tailor our work to your unique needs. I use tools like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing to help you create meaningful, lasting change.

Are you struggling with feelings that you can't quite put into words? Have you attempted to mask this with unhealthy behaviors and coping that has led to guilt, shame or self-doubt? Maybe just being forced to "push through" because life has given you no other alternatives. Potentially these emotions have gotten in the way of your success and or every day life (job, school, relationships), and, you have turned to every avenue for help, but still not found yourself feeling any better? If this is you then your feelings are valid. I help individuals who are struggling to get unstuck in tackling the many challenges of life.

My approach is individualized and non-judgmental. It is important for me to take the time to help you feel safe and comfortable enough to be your true and authentic self. I see everyone's journey as unique within its own right. I believe that the experiences from our past help shape and define our present sometimes being embedded in our subconscious.

Whether you are new to therapy and anxious about taking that first step, or returning after a long haul, I am here to help you take the steps needed to move your life in the ways of your own choosing. My hope is help you bring clarity to your experiences while supporting you in your journey towards transcendence.
