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 a Therapist in Augusta

Finding the right OCD therapist in Augusta, GA starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Exposure and response prevention (ERP) is one therapeutic approach that may be used for obsessive-compulsive disorder, and a licensed provider can help determine what approach may be appropriate. Other therapeutic approaches may also be considered, depending on an individual's needs and a licensed provider's assessment. If medication management is part of your care plan, a psychiatrist can work alongside your therapist. Look for a licensed provider — such as an LPC, psychologist, or psychiatrist — who has specific experience with OCD, and read their bio to learn about their approach before booking.

Augusta is a mid-size metro, and the number of local OCD specialists can be limited compared to larger cities. Virtual appointments expand your options significantly — many licensed providers on Headway offer virtual sessions to patients across Georgia, so you can connect with an OCD specialist from your home in Augusta, Evans, Martinez, or anywhere in the surrounding area.

Therapy in Augusta can be expensive out of pocket, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an OCD therapist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
