Practice Description
My specialty is guiding and counseling couples and families through their life journey. Whether you are a new couple looking for tools to build a solid foundation or a couple in crisis looking for a life raft, I am here for you. If you and your children are transitioning through divorce or are a newly blended family, I help family members heal while finding balance and harmony within the new family structure. Co-parenting counseling and working with stepfamilies are two large areas of my practice.Couples counseling is my primary specialty. I am a Certified Gottman Therapist. I work with couples to help them understand how one another's perspectives, beliefs and life history play roles in the current relationship and assist them in finding a balance that creates harmony. I have many years of experience working with new couples, blended families and couples who have been together for over 20 years who are seeking assistance.I am an experienced Domestic Divorce Mediator, Divorce Coach and Child Specialist in working as part of an interdisciplinary team with adults and children going through divorce. Please read more about this on my website and at www.MFTGA.com.With children, play therapy is used to help them resolve issues on their level. Families play an important role in children's healing processes. The interaction between children's problems and their families is always complex. Sometimes children develop problems as a way of signaling that there is something wrong in the family. Other times the entire family becomes distressed because the child's problems are so disruptive. Children and families heal faster when they work together.After reviewing my website, if you have questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please contact me by email [email protected] or phone at 678-220-0090. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
