Adlerian Therapists in Columbus, GA

I believe that every one of my clients, regardless of age, has innate inner wisdom, beauty, strength, and self-direction to ameliorate or overcome their issues. I empower my client to find those innate sources to become healthy and content.

Are you experiencing anxiety and/or depression that is getting in the way of living your best life? Are you experiencing a life change? Maybe you just want someone to talk to and assist in communicating with others. Whatever the issue, talking things out and learning new skills can make all the difference.

In this big world that we live in, we often find ourselves surrounded by people, but walking entirely alone. They don’t understand us and when we stop to think about it, we realize that we don’t really understand ourselves. The pain, fear, and other struggles become who you think you are, losing the true sense of the person you were meant to be. You’ve tried changing your personality or appearance to find the love and acceptance you crave, but it’s only left you feeling empty. Life keeps passing by, time keeps ticking and the pain becomes too much to handle and the feeling of being “stuck” has settled in. Through our work together, you will find empowerment to face your struggles, strength to have ultimate freedom over your life and learn practical tools to apply to everyday life. My therapeutic approach is based on building a strong, healthy relationship with you and walking side by side through your journey of self-acceptance and healing. You don’t have to do this alone. I can help you experience self-acceptance, worth beyond measure and ultimate freedom from self-judgment. I know seeking counseling can be hard, but help is within your reach. Together, we can walk through this journey to make meaningful and positive changes in your life. Call me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). I am passionate about helping my clients discover the best possible version of themselves. I have many years of experience providing counseling services in a number of settings. I am currently available for online Telehealth counseling services in Florida and Georgia.

I believe people can build the lives they want to live by aligning themselves with their values, which may shift with the various seasons of life.

Columbus, Georgia is home to Fort Benning — one of the US Army's largest installations and the home of the Army Infantry — creating a therapy community substantially shaped by the needs of soldiers, veterans, and military families dealing with combat trauma, moral injury, PTSD, and the emotional complexity of service life. The city's African American population comprises the largest share of the civilian community, and culturally affirming therapists who work with racial identity and intergenerational resilience alongside the predominantly military therapy demand are an important part of the local landscape. Martin Army Community Hospital serves the military population, while Piedmont Columbus Regional provides civilian institutional mental health resources. Columbus shares some of its therapy ecosystem with Phenix City, Alabama directly across the Chattahoochee River, giving the metro a bi-state character.
