Are you looking for a personal, caring psychotherapist or group counselor in Atlanta?
I changed careers from being a paralegal, working in an adversarial role to help keep people apart, to being a Coordinator for a Rape Crisis Program. I’ve worn many hats — a therapist, fundraiser, and community educator. After several years as a Coordinator, I went back to school for my Ph.D. and got an internship at a women’s prison where I developed the group counseling program. I continue as a consultant/psychotherapist/group counselor/trainer for the Department of Corrections, working one day each week. In 2000, instead of becoming a professor as planned, I began a private practice in psychotherapy in the Atlanta area where I counsel adults, both individually, as couples and in groups. I work with people who want to know themselves fully, live spontaneously, and more easily connect with others. I provide honest feedback because I believe that if we can understand our patterns and make different choices, we can create a better life.
