Welcome. Thank you for taking time to visit my site. Here you will find some information about the professional services I offer. I have 30 years of experience as a psychologist, including 25 years of private practice in Atlanta. My training is in human behavior and in using effective ways of helping people with the following goals:
- Identify life situations that cause problems in daily living.
- Change problem behaviors, habits, and thoughts.
- Figure out better ways to cope with life's challenges.
- Deal more effectively with difficult and stressful situations.
- Improve overall emotional, physical, and spiritual health.
When thinking about consulting a counselor, choose a professional with appropriate education, training, and experience. Whether you receive a referral from a friend, pastor, physician, or family member, determine for yourself whether the person is properly trained and qualified to meet your needs. When choosing the best counselor, be sure the person:
- Has proper professional training, credentials, and licensure.
- Has a good standing in his or her professional organization.
- Has a code of ethics that guides his or her professional conduct.
- Has experience with your specific interests, problems, and goals.
It is important to choose a counselor with whom you are comfortable, so speak with a few before making your choice. If you think I am the type of person you would like to consult, please call me at 770-913-0506.
Remember, what you will be one day is what you are now becoming---one choice at a time.
