I am a Licensed Professional Counselor providing counseling services to adolescents, college students, and adults facing challenges such as depression, anxiety, trauma, life transitions, panic attacks, and OCD. I believe that healing begins the moment you feel heard and understood. However, we live in a world where finding someone who can actively listen and attend to our true emotions and thoughts nonjudgmentally is hard to come by.

We all face moments (or months!) that test our foundations. At times, we encounter situations that are confusing, overwhelming, disappointing, frustrating, or painful. We find ourselves struggling. But there's good news: we don't have to navigate these situations alone. I am a therapist who will join you on the journey. You and I will work closely together to form a comfortable and collaborative therapeutic relationship in which exploration, learning, and healing can occur.

Life transitions (personal and occupational) often result in challenges. Many of us become sad with grief and loss or face new challenges creating stress and anxiety. Effective management of conflictual feelings and stressers result in a healthier lifestyle for individuals and families. This stability has a positive impact on your productivity and well-being. My hope for each client is restoration of her/his highest level of functioning. With my skills, and experience I partner with clients to facilitate their goal- whether that may be symptom relief, behavioral changes, problem resolution or personal insight and understanding.

As a licensed Clinical Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, I have specialized in treating OCD and anxiety disorders for over 30 years. Many people have seen multiple therapists with minimal benefit. Yet the good news is that OCD, panic, social anxiety, and generalized anxiety are among the most treatable of all emotional disorders. My confidence in achieving a successful outcome with your problem stems from using what psychologists call "evidence-based strategies of treatment." I primarily use Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, the only form of therapy consistently shown to be effective for these problems in scientific studies.

Any crisis whether it stems from relationship problems, the after effects of fighting in war, contemplating suicide, sexual/physical assault and the like can be a dark and lonely place to be in. This is especially true considering that sometimes when a person experiences a traumatic event, he/she may find unhealthy ways to cope with feelings that are too overwhelming to deal with. As a result, most people don't seek help until an area of their life has been negatively impacted or they have gotten to a place that they don't want to live anymore.

I work with children and families (ages 5+), parents, adult men, and couples.
