Hi! I would love to share a little about myself to break the ice. I am a wife to my honey for over 25 yrs and a mama to two young adults who are both married. I LOVE animals and my 3 big dogs. I am licensed in Georgia with 17 years of counseling work experience. Most of that experience has been with teens and families at therapeutic residential programs for troubled teens and at a University. I love helping teens and young adults to consider the things the world is teaching them and help them discover how these ideas and challenges impact them in their journey to become who they want to be as adults. This may mean we need to explore their core values and beliefs and find coping skills for things that trouble them now. I have helped both parents and teens with stress and anxiety, behavioral issues, relationship issues, family conflicts, & parenting issues. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
