After receiving my bachelor's and master's degrees from University of Texas at Austin, I moved to Atlanta to pursue an internship at a long-term psychiatric treatment facility. I gained invaluable experience, and most importantly, a passion for helping adults suffering from mental health issues.
My journey has led me to working at inpatient psychiatric/addiction facilities, community mental health centers, and inner city hospitals providing psychiatric treatment. Using Cognitive-Behavioral, Client-Centered and Solution-Focused Therapy, I build on my clients' strengths and cultivate their inner and external resources to achieve maximum benefit. My passion is guiding people struggling with sexuality/gender, mood/anxiety disorders and trauma.
I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, sex positive therapist and offer a safe place for people to just be. People often describe me as "A warm, tell- it -like- it -is therapist who doesn't just sit there and nod her head during sessions." Because every client and issue is different, I spend every first visit getting to know my clients personally.We then can put our heads together, determine what we can do to improve things and then take this journey together.
