"We all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future." - Steve Maraboli

You have far greater potential than what you've realized. I guide people in moving beyond self-perceived limits brought on by mental illness and life circumstances. I provide treatment on a brief or long term basis using accurate assessments, evidenced based treatment, integrity, ethics, competence, and advocacy.

My areas of practice include depression, anxiety, suicidal impulses, stress, trauma, low self-esteem, and concerns related to sex. As well as delivering mental health services for people of color and the LGBT community. You deserve to be treated with sensitivity, respect and confidentiality.

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.

I am a gay Black Christian cis-gender male. For most moments of the day, I have a random song on repeat in my head. This can be attributed to my background in vocal and instrumental music.

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 Georgia

Searching for therapists in Georgia starts with finding someone whose training fits your needs. Across the state, therapy options vary between larger cities, suburbs, and rural areas, so it helps to look closely at each therapist’s specialties and approach. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, review whether a therapist lists experience with those concerns. You can also look for approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Your search may look different in Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, or other parts of Georgia. Some people prefer in-person appointments close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions to fit care into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what a first session may include, and whether their background matches what you want from therapy.

The cost of mental health care in Georgia varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Georgia therapists who are accepting new clients, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and your exact coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you are ready.
