Macon residents deserve accessible mental health care. Headway's 2,495 provider network across Downtown, Vineville, and surrounding areas offers flexible sessions with insurance support, helping you find the right fit for your needs without financial barriers.
I bring both clinical expertise and real-world experience into our work together. I understand that many people come to therapy feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start and I meet clients with patience, respect, and honesty.
I believe therapy should feel collaborative, culturally responsive, and grounded in safety. I don’t rush the process or expect clients to have everything figured out. We move at a pace that feels sustainable, while still working toward meaningful change.
Clients should also know that I value direct communication and transparency. I will offer reflections and tools when helpful, but I will always honor your autonomy and lived experience. I do not believe in pathologizing survival responses, especially when they are shaped by trauma, systemic stress, or long-term caregiving roles.
Above all, my goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered, a space where you can breathe, reflect, and begin to shift from surviving to living with greater clarity and intention.
I am passionate about empowering my clients to find healing from past traumas, hurts, and hangups, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their story, and their relationship with God. Freedom to live the life you desire is not out of reach.
You don’t have to be chained to your past any longer. We will reprocess those negative life experiences and traumas to increase your self-awareness so that you can make intentional decisions about how you want to show up in the world. We will dispel the old, tired myth that “praying about it” should be enough. Instead, I will support you in being healed.

For clients who request it, I am comfortable integrating faith-informed perspectives into our work while always respecting diverse beliefs and backgrounds. I honor that healing can look different for everyone, and I meet clients where they are.
I see therapy as a partnership; one rooted in trust, growth, and real-life change.

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Macon starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider whether you need support for a specific concern — such as anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges — or whether you're looking for general mental health care. Providers in the Macon area include licensed professional counselors (LPCs), licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), marriage and family therapists (LMFTs), psychologists, and psychiatrists who can prescribe medication. Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their approach, specialties, and style before you reach out.
Macon and the surrounding Middle Georgia area — including Warner Robins, Byron, and Perry — have both in-person and virtual providers available. Virtual sessions with a Georgia-licensed provider can be a convenient option if you have a busy schedule or limited transportation. When comparing providers, look at their areas of focus, the types of therapy they offer (such as CBT, DBT, or trauma-informed care), and whether they accept your insurance plan.
Therapy in Macon can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your specific plan, provider, and location.
