Licensed Professional Counselor | M.Ed., LPC, CST, CCPS, NCC
I am licensed in the state of GEORGIA to provide counseling services. Women seek my help to recover from betrayal trauma and for other women’s issues. I am a Certified Clinical Partner Specialist through APSATS.
Couples call me for marriage counseling – whether that’s for pre-marital counseling, a “relationship tune-up”, marriage counseling, affair recovery or problematic sexual behavior. I am able to connect with both spouses to help them both fight for and grow to enjoy a satisfying, healthy, intimate marriage.
Couples call me for sex therapy. Most therapists have never had even one class in sexuality. I am a Certified Sex Therapist through the American Board of Christian Sex Therapists (ABCST), which means I have completed extensive post graduate studies about sexual issues. I help couples with sexual functioning issues (desire, arousal, orgasm), pain with sex, sexual addiction / porn addiction recovery, anxiety about sex, sexual trauma recovery, and grief / loss related to miscarriage, abortion, & disability.
Adult individuals call me for help with personal crisis / personal growth, stress management, singleness / dating, life transitions such as divorce recovery, anxiety and depression about any life situation, and growing their sense of identity.
My private practice is located in a beautiful professional park setting where I share offices with several other clinicians. There I work with individual adults, couples, and groups. Sessions are usually 45-75 minutes long. My office is located in Sugar Hill, Georgia.
