My practice consists of psychotherapy and counseling services that include Individual Psychotherapy, Marriage Counseling and Couples Therapy, and Testing & Evaluation. I see adults of all ages at all stages of life, including college-age adults, couples seeking marriage, couples or pre-marital counseling, those going through life transitions and those struggling with LGBT issues.
In Individual Psychotherapy, I work one-on-one with individuals 18 years and older. Sessions are scheduled in my office in Athens, GA or may be done via Skype of FaceTime if Athens isn't convenient to you, or you need to check in but you are traveling, on vacation or just not able to be in Athens. Sessions normally last for 45 minutes.
All marriages and relationships begin with romantic love - everything is great. But just as fall follows summer, relationships change. Career stresses occur, financial concerns arise, children appear, communication breaks down, the shine has worn off of the romance, power struggles insert themselves and "we" are not who "we" were anymore.
For couples in relationship crisis, or contemplating divorce, I've designed a two-and-a-half-day weekend intensive couples retreats for those who want a private, more meaningful experience than what you might be getting from weekly marriage counseling sessions.
There is ample evidence that this intensive, condensed and highly focused approach to relationship issues allows you to get more profound results in a shorter timespan - you'll progress much more rapidly in repairing your relationship than if you attended months of once or twice-weekly therapy sessions.This is not a group experience.
