It can be vulnerable to reach out for support and it takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life. I am here to support and empower you in that journey. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Whether you are experiencing anxiety or depression, family or relationship conflict, or exploring your identity and life goals, there is hope—therapy can help you move through your current challenges and get you feeling better.
We will work together to reach your goals, release shame and guilt, face fears, and manage any risky behaviors. Every person heals differently, and I use a variety of techniques from evidence-based treatments including EMDR for trauma, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS), Cognitive Behavior Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy.
I believe having a treatment plan is essential to helping you achieve your goals through therapy. I open sessions by asking for an update specifically about the areas of your life you want to address in therapy. In sessions, I take notes that often include direct quotes from my clients so I can come back to their specific wording to help explore deeper or not bypass significant issues by letting the conversation flow away. I like to plan ahead for my sessions to be prepared to connect details from past sessions with the new information to keep us moving towards your goals, and I like to assign meaningful homework.
I started my career at the Utah Pride Center, working with LGBTQ+ teens and adults, and am now a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Georgia. I have extensive experience working with people who experience suicidal ideation to increase safety and move beyond surviving and towards thriving.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We only list providers where we have a contractual relationship with a network, group, or practice that a provider is a part of, or where we have a direct contractual relationship with the provider. That contract governs the terms of participation on the Psych Hub site, and in some cases, as mentioned below, the provider’s, group’s, or network’s use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, Psych Hub receives fees from provider groups, networks, or individual providers to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
