Welcome! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia and a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) by the National Board for Certified Counselors. In addition to that, I am also a certified perinatal mental health professional (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International.
I have a passion for serving the needs of all women, with a special focus on supporting pregnant women and new mothers through the journey to parenthood. In addition to my education and clinical internship, I have completed advanced training in perinatal mental health (including mood and anxiety disorders, infertility, and perinatal loss). I also specialize in supporting women through challenges related to depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self esteem & identity, and other major life changes.
I completed my Masters from Mercer University with a 4.0 cumulative GPA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, where I was accepted into to the Chi Sigma Iota and Phi Kappa Phi Honor Societies. Prior to becoming a therapist, I had an accomplished career in marketing communications, including more than a decade of professional experience in marketing services, project development, and client relations. My own difficult journey of becoming a mother led me to explore a second career as a mental health counselor. I believe this personal and professional experience allows me to bring a unique perspective to the therapeutic relationship. Our work will focus on your unique needs and goals, and my approach is warm, interactive, and is strength-based. I currently offer individual therapy offerings and specifically-tailored perinatal packages for pregnant and postpartum women.
