Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 12 years of experience helping adults navigate difficult seasons of life. I hold a Master’s in Social Services and a Master’s in Law and Social Policy from Bryn Mawr College, and I am licensed in Pennsylvania, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee, and Texas.

My areas of particular interest include women’s mental health, perinatal and postpartum concerns, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress and burnout, parenting, relationships, and major life transitions. I have specialized training in perinatal care and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I came to therapy because I genuinely enjoy the process of sitting with people as they make sense of what is happening in their lives and figure out what comes next. I’m down-to-earth, comfortable talking about difficult or uncomfortable things, and I believe therapy should feel like a conversation—not an interrogation.

I also believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to bring experience, perspective, questions, and tools to the process while helping you identify what matters to you and what you want to change.

Many men carry struggles they’ve never felt safe enough to talk about. I work with men, adolescent males, veterans, and military members who are dealing with trauma, substance use, domestic violence, compulsive sexual behaviors, relationship conflict, and the pressure of trying to hold everything together. You might feel stuck in patterns that are damaging your relationships, affecting your sense of identity, or leaving you feeling ashamed, angry, emotionally disconnected, or out of control. My work also involves betrayal trauma, conduct disorders and men overwhelmed with power, privilege and identity issues.

Anxiety, depression, unresolved trauma, and unhealthy coping patterns can make it difficult to move forward alone. My goal is to provide a space where you can be honest, understood, and supported without judgment.

I am passionate about being able to help clients learn to help themselves. Often times, we aren't equipped with the tools and knowledge to move through life's challenges. I specialize in helping my clients heal from underlying traumas that continue to cause distress, while also treating current symptoms of anxiety and depression. I hope that each of my clients feel validated, supported, and valued. I am inspired by seeing my clients begin making necessary changes in their own lives to improve their overall wellbeing.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology as well as a Master's Degree of Social Work. I began to work in this field as a foster care case manager. I have since gained 15 years of clinical experience among various outpatient and inpatient treatment settings. I specialize in treating PTSD, Anxiety, and Depressive Disorders.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Certified Advanced Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CAADC), which means I sit at the intersection of two things that almost always show up together: trauma and substance use. Most of my clients are dealing with one, the other, or both, and they're usually exhausted from trying to manage it alone or from therapy that didn't take their substance use seriously. I'm not here to fix you. I'm here to collaborate with you, meet you exactly where you are, and help you move forward with intention. That might mean we're untangling something from your past that still runs your present, or it might mean looking honestly at a relationship with alcohol or drugs that's stopped working for you. Either way, my priority is building a space where you feel safe, understood, and capable of actually changing your life, not just talking about changing it.
