THERAPY
CAN HELP

Sometimes we get a little off-kilter when we spend too much time in our heads without saying things out loud. Sometimes it takes two people to understand one.

 

Maybe you're stuck, confused, overwhelmed, or just feel like you'd like to gain a new perspective on yourself or a particular situation. Maybe you know something needs to change, but you can't quite figure out the what and the how.

 

Whatever the scenario, therapy can help. As a Marriage & Family Therapist in Atlanta, it's my privilege to work collaboratively with my clients towards healing and peace.

MY APPROACH

I believe therapy is a collaborative process.

I prioritize creating a safe holding place for you to explore fears, insecurities, and wounds, and to consider how your relationships and experiences have shaped you. You come not as a passive learner, but to actively work on yourself: it's a beautiful process, but it's not easy. I follow your lead as I support you to reach your goals. We often hold solutions to the issues we face, but need space to discover them within a trusting, collaborative therapeutic relationship.

​

If you are someone whose faith is inextricably connected to your psychological well-being, there's room to talk about that in therapy.

 I completed my graduate work at Fuller Seminary in

Pasadena, CA and am experienced in the integration of

faith and spirituality within Psychotherapy. Additionally, if you have been a victim of spiritual abuse or are in a time of spiritual transition, I would love to support you in your journey.

"The ultimate goal of therapy...it's too hard a question. The words come to me like tranquility, like fulfillment, like realizing your potential."

SERVICES I OFFER

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY

I work with clients facing a range of issues, but particularly focus my practice on supporting women. I am certified through Postpartum Support International (PSI) as a PMH-C, meaning I specialize in working with those facing depression and anxiety related to infertility, pregnancy loss, pregnancy and childbirth, as well as the tremendous identity and role shifts that come with motherhood.

FAMILY THERAPY

When family members are locked into a cycles of conflict, therapy can help. As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I am adept at noticing the cognitive patterns at play, seeing how those thought patterns play out in behavior, and helping clients see how to change the cycle. If your family is struggling with the current ways of being, I'd love to help you find a better way.

COUPLES THERAPY

My approach to couples therapy is based in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an evidence-backed model based on the science of adult attachment and bonding. EFT gives me as the couples therapist a map for figuring out what has gone awry in the relationship and how to restore trust and safety in the partnership, how to restore more satisfying ways of expressing intimacy, and overall to create a stronger bond between the partners. Because of the nature of EFT, I cannot work with couples where either partner is in an active affair, or there is ongoing violence in the relationship.
