Hello and welcome! I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and human. I work with individuals, couples, and families who may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck in relationship patterns, or unsure how to move forward. My goal is to create a space where you feel heard and understood while also helping you build tools you can use in your everyday life.

My style is warm, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Together, we may work on understanding patterns, managing stress, improving communication, setting healthier boundaries, processing emotions, and strengthening your connection with yourself and others.

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


I am an experienced trauma resolution clinician and feel so honored to practice as a therapist. My approach centers around meeting you where you are, understanding what you would like to see shift or experience in a new way, and cultivate a path to your recovery.

I am a spiritually integrated clinician and provide a space for you to access your highest self. I recognize both substance and process addictions as a means of outdated coping. Fostering new ways to cope that honor you and your recovery path is central to my practice. Achieving safety and stability internally through the healing of attachment wounds and increasing internal recognition of worth is a byproduct of this process. Move from surviving to thriving.
