Sometimes the hardest part of therapy is showing up before you even know what you want out of it. If you're feeling stuck, frustrated, or like something needs to change but you can't quite name what, that's exactly where we start. I work with teens, adults, and older adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, anger, and the kind of life experiences that feel too big to sort out alone. You don't need to come in with clear goals. We'll figure that out together.

You’re the one who usually has everything under control, but lately, the "strong" version of you feels like a mask that’s getting too heavy to wear. Whether you’re a mother wondering why you feel detached from the life you worked so hard to build, or a parent exhausted by the cycle of ADHD-related challenges—you don’t have to carry this alone.

I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can stop surviving and start thriving. My approach is patient-centered, trauma-informed, and evidence-based, tailored to move you toward a life where you feel present, connected, and capable.

I specialize in:

  • Perinatal & Maternal Mental Health: Navigating the "new reality" of motherhood.
  • High-Achieving Professionals: Managing burnout, perfectionism, and "mental load."
  • Neurodiversity-Affirming Care: Supporting parents and children navigating ADHD and behavioral hurdles.

Why Work With Me?

I offer a "cozy" office experience in Houston, TX, and convenient virtual care across 7 states ( DE, FL, GA, IA, KS, MT, and TX). My goal is to make mental health easy, accessible and relatable.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Atlanta, GA

Searching for OCD therapists in Atlanta starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just someone who lists OCD as a focus area. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use when supporting people living with OCD, and therapists may need specific training to provide it. As you compare options, look for experience with concerns like intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, compulsions, and anxiety. A therapist’s bio can help you confirm whether they mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or direct experience supporting people living with OCD.

Atlanta has many mental health care options across neighborhoods like Midtown, Buckhead, Decatur, and Virginia-Highland, which can make the search more detailed rather than simple. Consider whether an in-person office fits your commute, parking needs, or transit route, or whether virtual sessions give you more flexibility. It also helps to compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. For OCD care, review each profile closely to see whether the therapist has specific ERP training, since that can be different from general familiarity with OCD.

Therapy in Atlanta can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to lower session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book, then compare bios, availability, and appointment formats in one place. From there, you can browse OCD therapists in Atlanta and book directly when you’re ready.
