APPROACH & BIO
My counseling approach is growth-oriented, allowing my clients to make progress at an individual pace. Providing evidence-informed teaching with gentle guidance, I support those who work with me on their journey toward emotional and relational well-being.
In addition to working as a counselor and educator in clinical and community settings, I have collaborated across academic, vocational, entertainment, and legal systems. I have served on multidisciplinary health teams, provided training for other mental health professionals, and served as the Executive Director of a community-based counseling center. Through my education, I have earned the following designations:
-
Doctoral Candidate of Psychology (ABD), University of West Georgia

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), State of Georgia
-
Master of Social Work (MSW), Georgia State University
-
Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA), Brenau Women’s College

To support my efforts to engage in best practices in my research and clinical work, I am a member of the following organizations:

American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors
and Therapists (AASECT)
-
Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality (SSSS)
-
Society for Sex Therapy & Research (SSTAR)
Trained traditionally as a social scientist, I have pursued additional education to become a spiritually sensitive counselor. Your work with me can be addressed through a traditional or spiritually integrated approach. During our first meeting together we will discuss, and ultimately you will choose, which approach will work best for you.
CONTACT ME
I work with adults (18+) in all stages of the lifespan and understand the importance of making services accessible to those who work, those away at school, those who travel extensively, clients with children, and clients with circumstances limiting mobility. I offer education and counseling sessions in person at my office in Atlanta, GA, and coaching sessions remotely through a HIPAA compliant video platform. Together, we can discuss your options for service delivery and decide which will be most comfortable for you.
