Hi there! You’ve already taken one of the hardest steps toward a healthier life by being here. That takes courage, and I’m glad you’re here.

I believe every person has inherent dignity, worth, and the capacity for growth. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Therapy is a collaborative journey, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside you as you pursue healing, hope, and meaningful change.

I earned a Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the Regent University School of Psychology and Counseling. My graduate training included a concentration in spirituality and was grounded in the belief, “To God alone be the glory.” That perspective continues to shape my work today. I approach counseling with humility, recognizing that healing can occur in many ways, and I am honored to use my clinical training in service to others with compassion, respect, and evidence based care.

I welcome individuals from all faiths, spiritual traditions, cultural backgrounds, and those who do not identify with a religion. Whether faith is central to your life or not, therapy will be tailored to your values, beliefs, culture, and personal goals. If you would like to incorporate spirituality into your care, I am honored to support that part of your journey.

During my clinical training, I specialized in healthy relationships, including domestic violence, sexual abuse, and human trafficking. I also have extensive experience in suicide prevention, crisis intervention, behavioral health, anxiety, depression, trauma, moral injury, grief and loss, relationship concerns, neurodiversity, parenting skills, individuals with special needs and their family members, LGBTQ+ concerns, and major life transitions.

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Atlanta

Finding addiction therapists in Atlanta starts with matching the care to the concern you want support with. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, substance use, behavioral addictions, relapse prevention, recovery maintenance, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety or depression. Look for a therapist whose profile lists experience with addiction, substance use, or alcohol-related concerns, along with approaches such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, harm reduction, or medication-assisted treatment coordination. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.

Atlanta has many therapists across neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, Decatur, and the Old Fourth Ward, so the number of options can make it harder to narrow your search. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking needs, or MARTA access, or whether virtual appointments give you more scheduling flexibility. It can also help to look for therapists who are accepting new clients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and describe a non-judgmental approach to recovery. Reading bios before booking can show how a therapist talks about addiction care, whether they mention harm reduction, and what you can expect from sessions.

Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose from therapists offering in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse profiles, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741
