Do you find yourself in a toxic relationship after a toxic relationship? Do your thoughts keep you up at night? Are you stuck in a relationship, but can’t seem to navigate your way out? Does it seem that everyone around you is living their best life, but you? If you answered yes to any of these questions let me be of service to you. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a National Certified Counselor under supervision in the Augusta, GA areas with 5 years of experience. I am an Air Force veteran. After my military contract was completed. I became a Department of Defense employee for 10 years taking care of our nation's heroes. I earned a Bachelors in Psychology from the University of Phoenix and a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I am a mother of three.
