Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Savannah, GA covered by Aetna

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am dedicated to creating a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered. I have experience working with adults and children navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, and other emotional and behavioral concerns. My background includes outpatient therapy, behavioral health, crisis intervention, medical social work, and supporting individuals and families during some of life’s most difficult moments.

To ensure absolute confidence in our partnership, you should know that I operate less like a traditional therapist and more like a psychological strategist. Built specifically for high-achievers accustomed to heavy loads, my approach does not rely on passive listening. Instead, I am highly active, engaged, and direct. I match your cognitive speed, treating your emotional well-being with the same urgency and strategic precision you apply to your most critical professional ventures.

Within our sessions, the usual hierarchies are stripped away to provide a rare ecosystem of utmost discretion and radical candor. Because I am entirely focused on the human being operating the machine, I will gently but firmly challenge your blind spots and call out self-sabotaging logic. You will never hear me hide behind clinical jargon; instead, I translate complex behavioral science into plain, actionable frameworks designed for a logical, analytical mind.

Ultimately, I view myself as a specialized asset in your corner, operating on the principle that insight without execution is just an expensive conversation. Our work prioritizes data and action, ensuring every concept is pressure-tested in the real world—whether in your boardroom, your marriage, or your internal life. My sole objective is to help you optimize your inner world so your outer success is sustainable, fulfilling, and integrated with the people you love.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in honoring the whole person. I strive to create a calm, supportive environment where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. Together, we will build on your strengths, address challenges with compassion, and move toward meaningful growth and emotional well-being.

Brave One:

Coming to therapy is a courageous effort! My initial task is to create a therapeutic alliance that affirms you reached out at the right time and hope is possible! This journey we take together won't always be easy but with 15 years experience, working in many areas of behavioral health including forensics, inpatient medical and psychiatry, outpatient, consulting, substance abuse and private practice, you're in good hands. I bring a wealth of life experience that goes a long way too!

I’ve spent years sitting with people at their lowest—through addiction, crisis, and the kind of pain that can make life feel unmanageable. That work taught me something I bring into every session now: nobody is “too much,” and no story is too messy. These days, I’m more focused on slower, steadier work. Whether you’re worn down by depression, gripping through stress, or finally ready to be honest about drinking or using, I’ll meet you where you are with steadiness, honesty, and compassion. You don’t need the right words yet; we’ll figure it out together.

Many of my clients are professionals who are seeking assistance managing emotions and dealing with change. This can involve: helping professionals navigate feelings of "imposture syndrome", understanding self apart from family, or assisting young professional manage feelings of stress, anxiety, or loneliness. Many clients like to involve their faith in session, while utilizing evidence based practices. I am trained in several trauma informed treatment modalities for PTSD and trauma related disorders. The majority of the people I serve include: Young Professionals, Men, Trauma Survivors and People of Faith.
