Psychotherapy for Adults and Adolescents


I provide individual counseling for adults and adolescents at my office in Decatur and also in online sessions.

I have trained extensively in evidenced based treatments for mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma (PTSD), and insomnia. I rely on evidenced based interventions which means that I have been trained in treatment programs that have been rigorously evaluated in experimental evaluations – like randomized controlled trials – and shown to make a positive, statistically significant difference in reducing symptoms. In other words, they have undergone the process to prove that they do what they are supposed to be doing. The results of these extensive studies have shown that mental health treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, anxiety and depression are very effective in reducing emotional and physical pain.

Treatment specialization includes:

Insomnia
ADHD
Anxiety
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Panic Disorder
PTSD
Depression
Self Esteem Issues
Trauma from Sexual Assault
Divorce
Childhood Trauma
Assertiveness
Stress Management


I work with a wide range of presenting issues in both men and women. My therapeutic underpinnings are grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and more traditional Cognitive Behavioral Therapy interventions, both evidenced based therapies. My practice now includes online therapy sessions and therefore can help anyone in the state of Georgia no matter where you live. There is considerable evidence that therapy delivered via online sessions is just as effective as therapy services delivered in person. I feel that the added convenience and flexibility are fantastic!
