Individual Counseling

Empowering Change. Results for Life.™

Stress, anxiety, grief, depression, anger or big life changes can leave you feeling overwhelmed, unsupported, super frustrated and painfully alone.

When life feels heavy or out of control you don’t have to carry it alone. In Individual Counseling you will have an opportunity to discuss and reflect on your situation, be supported and equipped with practical tools and insights to get you back on track, emotionally and practically, with solutions that transform and fit your real life.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor in Cumming, GA, my goal is to provide result-oriented counseling solutions for your life and relationships in an open, supportive and confidential environment.

Whether you are looking to meet personal goals, navigate a personal challenge, address issues with depression or anxiety or to develop better coping skills, profound transformations can occur through the right counseling relationship.

In our work together we will explore patterns that interfere with the quality of your life/relationships, identify faulty thinking patterns that stop you in your tracks. In our work, you will learn effective, practical strategies for managing your life and relationships that catalyze personal growth, quality living and wellness.

Change is worth the effort and the risk. I know that true change takes time, teachability and accountability. You are worth it! In the context of our professional work together you will develop new skills and profound insights.

It is my goal, for each client that I serve, that upon the successful conclusion of your individual therapy work, you will have the strength, awareness, insight and resources to confidently manage your life and relationships in a way that is healthy, authentic and effective.

What to Expect? Results.

As we begin our work together, expect results and impactful solutions from the beginning of our work. I will listen carefully to your needs and situation and design a personal program to support you in realizing and/or developing your personal, relational or career goals. Specializations:

Clinical Approach: Solution-Focused & CBT

I use a no-nonsense, result-oriented approach that incorporates Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy.



Together, we’ll identify the change you want, map the patterns keeping you stuck, then implement incremental, high-impact steps you can practice between sessions.

Expect clear goals, direct feedback, and practical "homework" that you can immediately apply to your life and relationships.

You will be given tools that generate evidence-based results, catalyze insight and give you skills that benefits not only this season, but skills for a lifetime.

What to Expect in Your First 3 Sessions

1) Clarity – Your story, goals and immediate tools you can start using Day 1. You’ll leave each session with an actionable plan for the next 7-10 days.

2) Skills – One or two Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and/or communication or problem-solving skills tailored to your situation will be set each week. These skills will be clearly presented and practiced in session.

3) Momentum – We’ll review what worked, remove friction and set 2–3 routines/skills to establish the foundation of our work which you will build on in each successive session.

You should start noticing small wins early. We’ll review progress every 4–6 sessions and adjust as needed.

If Marriage Stress Is Part Of The Picture

Unsure if you should start alone or together? No problem.

Marriage counseling in truth is intensive personal work. Each member of a couple can only change their half of the marriage. So starting our work together, individually, will ultimately positively influence the marriage because a marriage is a system. To transform one is to impact the whole.

Individual counseling can clarify your needs or unmet needs, give you skills and insights that streamline goals and prepare you for Marriage & Couples Counseling or a Marriage Intensive when or if, it's appropriate.

What progress can look like

• Immediate conflict-resolution strategies
• Fewer spirals; quicker recovery after triggers/conflict
• Effective, succinct communication skills and healthy boundaries
• Sustainable routines for sleep, diet, stress management, problem-solving and focus
• Increased confidence, purpose and hope
