By utilizing strengths and identifying and overcoming barriers to change, we will move forward towards healing and growth.
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker in the state of Georgia and received my Master of Social Work degree from the University of Georgia. I enjoy and have been trained to work with children, adolescents, and adults.
I take a client-centered, strengths-based approach to therapy and believe in collaborating with my clients. I specialize in treating substance use disorders, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, and mood dysregulation disorders.
I am integrative and holistic in my psychotherapy and utilize a number of modalities and techniques.
I have been trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) and will often utilize the mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, emotional regulation, and distress tolerance skills that it offers.
I also draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and challenge unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors to create lasting change.
In working with children, I love to utilize fun, interactive, play-focused interventions.
