Therapeutic Services

Individual Therapy
My approach to individual psychotherapy relies heavily on both Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). In the process of applying these solution-oriented therapies the therapist and client work together to determine the goals for therapy, and how long to continue therapy…

Couples Therapy
While you and/or your spouse can feel better after a good talk with a friend or relative, for moderate or severe relationship problems, this relief is only temporary. Talking with a trained listener will help you identify and alleviate the problems that are contributing to your relationship issues…

Family Therapy
Family therapy is designed to help families or individuals within a family understand and improve the way family members interact with each other and resolve conflicts. While I work with individuals to help change certain behaviors, I also work with the entire family to improve communication skills, build on the positive aspects of interpersonal relationships, and repair the harmful or negative aspects.

Life's difficult! After more than 27 years working as a clinician and at the highest levels of local and national organizations, I understand this first hand. Since receiving my doctorate degree in 1982 I've encountered problems that I never imagined when I entered the workforce. Frankly, I've "been there and done that" when it comes to solving many difficult individual and interpersonal problems...

DUI Evaluation
If you receive a DUI you must receive a Clinical Evaluation. I am registered by the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health & Developmental Disabilities (DBHDD) as a DUI Clinical Evaluator. This designation authorizes me to provide clinical evaluations to anyone convicted of a DUI…
