Great to meet you!

"Only through peace of mind can you thrive." Is your relationship not what you envisioned it? Are you demoralized by the demands of everyday stresses, devastated by uncontrollable grief and loss, apprehensive and uncertain about how to re-gain control of your life?

As a mental health therapist with 15 years of experience, I am pleased to offer administrative services for completing FMLA paperwork, letters for 504 plans, and documentation for emotional support animals. Please note that FMLA paperwork often requires a minimum of 30 minutes to complete due to the need for supporting clinical documentation. The total cost will depend on the complexity and time required for each individual case. These services are separate from EAP or insurance benefits and are priced as follows:

Administrative Services

FMLA Paperwork and 504 Plan Letters

Initial Evaluation: $150 per hour

Subsequent Required Documentation: $75 per hour

Emotional Support Animal Documentation

Requirements:

Minimum of 3 therapy sessions to establish therapeutic rapport

Mental health evaluation to determine necessity of an emotional support animal

Fee: $200 for the evaluation and documentation

This service includes:

Assessment of mental health needs

Evaluation for ESA eligibility

Preparation of official ESA letter

Please note that emotional support animal registration is not legally required in Georgia. The ESA letter provided will be sufficient for housing accommodations under the Fair Housing Act.

These services are designed to support clients' needs while respecting the time and expertise required for such documentation. Fees are due at the time of service and can be paid via the credit card associated with your Headway account.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Do you have unresolved significant emotional feelings which are keeping you from moving on in your life and or relationships? Are you frustrated, overwhelmed, burned out, depressed, lack motivation and are going through power struggle with your children and adolescents?

What you can expect from our first session

As a person centered, reality and solution focused therapist, I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues from individual to family issues. I provide services personalized to you to meet your needs and achieve your personal growth. I provide necessary support and guidance to resolve challenging situations.
