Family therapy and counseling in Conyers, GA

Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.

I am Licensed Professional Counselor and Play Therapist specializing in children and adolescents. I'm committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for young clients to explore their emotions, develop coping skills, and navigate life's challenges.

After spending 12 years working in the legal field, having 3 children, and ensuring my son with special needs had the support he needed to reach his potential, which he did beautifully, I decided to follow my (other) passion. Went back to school in 2016 to earn my Masters in Social Work, which allowed me to follow my dream - helping people find their voice, their identify, their peace, their power and their ability to grow.

As a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Therapist and a Christian Life Coach, I believe change is very possible. I have been a part of Atlanta’s professional community for over 28 years. My MS is from Mercer University (a CACREP approved school) with additional experience in intensive marriage and family from Piedmont Hospital. I interned with Kathy Steele, an expert on complex trauma, dissociation, and other related issues. I focus on person centered therapy and solution focused. I offer EMDR and Certified.

It is my hope to assist children, teens and families toward healthy mind, body and spirit to allow for peace and joy in daily life and interactions. In my work in schools, treatment centers, and communities I have gathered experience in serving individuals working through anxiety, learning challenges, trauma, chronic disease and in healing as part of the adoption triad.

I want you to feel truly seen, heard, and understood. I will provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings so that you can move forward towards your life goals.

I received my master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Western Carolina University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia, and a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina.

Welcome, I am so glad you are here! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a passion for supporting people through life’s most challenging and transformative moments. I have the privilege of walking alongside clients from diverse backgrounds as they navigate life’s challenges. My practice is dedicated to fostering client growth, emotional resilience, and mental wellness through evidence-based practices in diverse populations.

I understand how intimidating it can be to reach out for help, and I deeply respect the courage it takes to begin this journey. Therefore, my focus is building a strong therapeutic relationship, allowing clients to feel secure enough to explore difficult emotions and experiences; being client-centered, validating experiences without imposing judgments or assumptions; practicing cultural sensitivity and humility, with mindfulness of how culture, race, religion, gender identity, sexuality, and lived experiences shape a client’s worldview and mental health; empowering clients to explore, learn, and build tools to manage their lives more effectively; and focusing on the client’s goals and values.

Clear, honest communication is a powerful tool for healing and growth. In our work together, you can expect a space that is warm and supportive, but also direct and intentional. I practice active listening, utilize humor when appropriate, and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences, with calmness and patience. I will ask meaningful questions and challenge unhelpful patterns with compassion, designed to help you build the tools to confidently navigate life’s challenges.

I am a psychologist who emphasizes a generalist approach with a multicultural focus utilizing an interpersonal and interactive supportive method and style that encourages personal growth, personal responsibility and cognitive as well as emotional self-awareness .

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and the founder of The Listening Room, where I provide therapy for adults navigating stress, trauma, and major life transitions. I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, relationship challenges, and court-related or high-stress situations.

My approach is supportive, direct, and focused on helping you move forward with clarity. I create a space where you can be heard without judgment, while also working together to develop practical tools for real-life change.

I offer virtual sessions, with limited in-person availability in Miami and Broward.
