Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 7.5 mi away • Athens, GA


Becoming a therapist was inspired by those who helped me navigate my own personal strugglesI proudly identify as the first people in my family to graduate from high school. I connect best with those who are seeking connection and understanding. I enjoy working with "busy brains" and deep feelers often those navigating anxiety, a harsh relationship with themselves, or feeling unsatisfied in their daily life. My casual demeanor and practice is based on my values of authenticity and balance. My professional career started out in outdoor recreation and education, where I led group development programs and later worked in wilderness therapy—a role that deepened my interest in helping others grow through challenge and connection. My skills and passions have since expanded by working in community practice, group private practice, and education.

As a licensed professional counselor, my mission is to provide the environment that fosters growth and resilience to help those feel empowered and reclaim their lives.

We all experience levels of anxiety, depression, existential, and family/social conflict that hinders us from moving forward. The one thing we forget is that we don't have to endure it alone.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Watkinsville

Finding the right therapist in Watkinsville starts with getting clear on what you're looking for. Consider the concerns you want to address — whether that's anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions — and look for a licensed provider who specializes in those areas. Watkinsville is part of the broader Athens-Clarke and Oconee County community, so you may also have access to providers in nearby Athens who offer virtual sessions.

When evaluating a therapist, credentials matter. Look for licensed professionals such as LPCs, LCSWs, psychologists, or psychiatrists who are trained in evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Reading a provider's bio can help you understand their style and decide whether they're a good match. Many providers on Headway offer a free phone consultation so you can connect before booking your first session.

Therapy in the Watkinsville and Athens area can be costly without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower what you pay. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see an estimated session cost before you book — and your out-of-pocket cost may be as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
