Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Statesboro, GA covered by United Healthcare

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by your ever-growing to-do list? Between work, dishes, laundry, cooking, and cleaning, you're feeling overwhelmed and shut down, and that's not including kids or school demands. Time management is a constant battle; you procrastinate, lose track of time, and miss important deadlines. It feels impossible to stay on top of everything. Your brain feels scattered and you feel like you’re underachieving, despite your potential and the effort you're putting in.

You've felt like you aren't as happy as you could be. It's hard to stop your mind from overthinking and worrying about everything, sometimes even getting to the point of feeling panicky. Or maybe you feel stuck and like you aren't satisfied with life even though you "should be." Maybe you've had a little bit of therapy before, but it feels like just talking about your problems isn't enough. You're looking for real-life skills you can use to help yourself think, feel and live better.

I want to help you optimize your life with a holistic and creative approach to therapy so that you can create a life you're excited about without being bored along the way. As a psychologist, yoga teacher, fellow human, and student of nutritional and integrative medicine for mental health, I bring an integrative wellness-based approach to your healing .

I believe we can work together to help you create a life that feels worth living. Previous clients have appreciated my ease, authenticity, humor, and creative, down-to-earth style. Call me to schedule an appointment to help you move away from stress, worry, and sadness and towards wellness, peace of mind, and contentment.

I'm an OCD, phobia, panic, and picking/pulling specialist. 90% of my caseload has OCD and about half also have a phobia or a body-focused repetitive behavior (BFRB). I have a lot of experience with taboo themes (P-OCD, Z-OCD, I-OCD) and people that have primarily mental compulsions. I'm open about having OCD and a BFRB myself. I know what it's like!

Are you struggling with feelings that you can't quite put into words? Have you attempted to mask this with unhealthy behaviors and coping that has led to guilt, shame or self-doubt? Maybe just being forced to "push through" because life has given you no other alternatives. Potentially these emotions have gotten in the way of your success and or every day life (job, school, relationships), and, you have turned to every avenue for help, but still not found yourself feeling any better? If this is you then your feelings are valid. I help individuals who are struggling to get unstuck in tackling the many challenges of life.

My approach is individualized and non-judgmental. It is important for me to take the time to help you feel safe and comfortable enough to be your true and authentic self. I see everyone's journey as unique within its own right. I believe that the experiences from our past help shape and define our present sometimes being embedded in our subconscious.

Whether you are new to therapy and anxious about taking that first step, or returning after a long haul, I am here to help you take the steps needed to move your life in the ways of your own choosing. My hope is help you bring clarity to your experiences while supporting you in your journey towards transcendence.

I believe my job as a therapist is to help tap into your most authentic self, and walk alongside you with whatever struggles there may be. My approach to therapy is direct, with the use of humor, analogies, and metaphors; I try to bring every thing together to help make sense in a world that can be confusing. Together we can tackle whatever difficult situation may be occurring in your life and get to the other side.
