Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Milledgeville, GA

Glad you stopped by! I am board-certified psychiatrist specializing in the care of adults, children, and adolescents, with over 17 years of clinical experience. An excellent listener, I provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a wide range of mental health conditions.

My journey started with volunteering in the Guidance Counselor's office at my high school. In this setting, my emotional intelligence and level of empathy began to grow. I decided to study Psychology to understand how the mind works, then studied Social Work to understand how that mind works when affected by events in the environment. I have worked extensively with children/ students, the LGBTQIA+ community, people living with HIV/ AIDS, the elderly, Veterans, Immigrants, couples and families. I accept clients no matter their race, gender, ethnicity or background. I utilize a strength- based approach for my clients as I believe we all have the ability to take control of our own lives.

As a dual holistic practitioner, I acknowledge that prioritizing and actualizing mental health wellness are essential keys to balance and stability in life. I applaud you for leaping and getting support for your healing or rediscovery journey. You have achieved the first major milestone!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Master's in Counseling and Psychology and years of experience supporting individuals through some of life's heaviest seasons; depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, family conflict, and the quiet pain of not feeling good enough.

My path to this work is deeply personal. For years I wrestled with low self-esteem, and that journey, from bitter and broken to whole and beautiful, is what drives everything I do. I founded U.G.L.Y. LADY Ministries out of that experience, a ministry dedicated to helping women reclaim their sense of worth. I also serve as a school counselor, which keeps me grounded in the real, everyday challenges people face from adolescence into adulthood.

I have a particular heart for women, young people, and anyone navigating trauma, relationship pain, or the weight of feeling unseen. My faith, my community, and my lived experience are not separate from my clinical work; they inform it. I bring warmth, encouragement, and an unshakeable belief in every person's capacity to heal.

My goal as a therapist is to help my clients discover the "TRUE" and more " CONTENT" person within. The primary goal is to work together to develop creative ways or alternatives to help you to live a healthier lifestyle. Here to help guide through that journey to become the best you.

I’m a licensed social worker who believes healing happens in safe, supportive relationships. I work with children, adolescents, and families navigating stress, trauma, emotional challenges, and major life transitions. My goal is to create a space where clients feel genuinely seen, respected, and understood.

For clients who request it, I am comfortable integrating faith-informed perspectives into our work while always respecting diverse beliefs and backgrounds. I honor that healing can look different for everyone, and I meet clients where they are.

I see therapy as a partnership; one rooted in trust, growth, and real-life change.
