Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Augusta, GA

Hello and welcome to comprehensive psychiatric services at my HEALTH and WELLNESS office!

As a General (Adult) and Child/Adolescent Psychiatrist, I am passionate about empowering all ages on their journey towards mental health and well-being.

I completed a residency in General Psychiatry and fellowship in Child & Adolescent Psychiatry at Georgia's prestigious medical college, one of the oldest medical schools in the nation. This expert, specialized training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to understand the unique psychological needs of children, adolescents, and adults.

I am a Board Certified Psychiatrist, and am also a Board Certified Pediatrician (triple-trained in General Pediatrics, General Psychiatry, and Child/Adolescent Psychiatry). I completed pediatrics residency at NYC’s only academic Children’s Hospital in Brooklyn, SUNY Downstate, with additional pediatric and psychiatric clinical internships at Brooklyn’s Maimonides Medical Center. Additionally, I graduated with a Master of Public Health with an Advanced Graduate Certificate in Health Communications from renowned Stony Brook University’s School of Medicine & their Journalism School’s Center for Communicating Science. I graduated medical school with clinical accolades at New York’s oldest osteopathic college, NYIT.

Thank you for taking a brave first step. I have 17+ years experience and enjoy helping people reach their counseling goals. You can expect to improve your life and important relationships through personalized counseling and support. I pride myself on being honest, compassionate, patient, (sometimes funny) and effective. I'm a combat veteran, which is important to some people.

I am a licensed professional counselor in Georgia and Alabama and have been working as a therapist for 16 years. Currently, I am only seeing female clients in order to align with my clinical focus. As a Christian therapist, I specialize in faith-integrated counseling for women who wish to bring their spirituality into sessions. I offer therapy that integrates biblical principles with evidence-based practices, helping clients align their mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. While this is my area of specialty, I work with individuals from all walks of life and honor each client’s unique beliefs and values.

My experience is broad in that I have worked with clients of all ages with a variety of issues and diagnoses, especially with those facing trauma, recovering from addictions, coping with anxiety and depression, and moving through life changes such as grief and relationship/family changes. I hope to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to take the first steps towards change, and I am here to support you in your journey.

Hello and welcome! I’m a ANCC Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) License in GA, MD, and North Dakota. I am dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based mental health care across the lifespan. I hold a master’s degree in nursing with specialized training in psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, and medication management, as well as psychotherapy.

My practice focuses on treating a range of conditions including anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, trauma-related disorders, addiction recovery and perinatal mental health concerns. I integrate a client-centered approach that may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), supportive counseling, and lifestyle interventions alongside medication when appropriate.

I believe in building a strong therapeutic alliance rooted in trust, respect, and collaboration. Whether you're seeking support for the first time or continuing your mental health journey, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

I have a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision from Mercer University. I received my master's in clinical mental health from Mercer as well. I have been in practice for almost 10 years in one capacity or another. I have my LPC in the state of Georgia.

I’ve been serving individuals, families, and communities in behavioral health for over 20 years. My experience spans community mental health, substance abuse treatment, employee assistance programs, probation and parole systems, juvenile courts, and crisis intervention settings.

I’ve worked closely with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, substance use, life transitions, court involvement, workplace stress, and family conflict. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when multiple systems — work, family, legal, or financial — are weighing on you at once.

Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure where to start. You don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out. My role is to help you sort through what feels heavy, clarify what needs attention first, and create a practical plan for change.

I bring both clinical expertise and real-world understanding. I’ve collaborated with courts, DFCS, probation officers, and corporate employers — so I understand the pressures that can impact your mental health from all angles.

Life can feel overwhelming when stress, anger, addiction, anxiety, or family conflict start pulling you away from who you want to be. I work with adolescent boys, teens, and adults who feel stuck, disconnected, or weighed down by emotional struggles and unhealthy patterns. Together, we focus on building confidence, emotional balance, healthy coping skills, and a stronger sense of purpose so you can feel more grounded, peaceful, and in control of your life and relationships.

I specialize in working with women and parents navigating major life transitions. This includes those dealing with pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, infertility, and pregnancy loss. I also work with clients processing birth-related trauma or feeling overwhelmed by anxiety and identity shifts.
