Directions To My Office

Welcome to my website.

Let me tell you a little bit about my practice. I specialize in working with people whose identities and issues lie all along the gender spectrum. I want to make my services accessible not only to people located in and near Atlanta, but also to those who live in remote areas where there are no gender specialists with whom to consult. Your issues may relate directly to gender, or they may be similar to those faced by anyone else. Either way, it is important that you know that the counselor/therapist you work with is comfortable with, accepting of, and knowledgeable about gender variant identities and lifestyles.

We can discuss and explore your needs regarding both your general issues and those related to gender, how they impact your life and the lives of your significant others, and how best to deal with these issues. I am happy to offer assistance to you, and should you request it, to loved ones. This assistance is available whether you are interested in psychotherapy, counseling, consultation, or — if you identify as transsexual, and choose to transition — facilitation through that process, including assistance in coming out to family members. I am available as an ally to accompany you on the journey that you determine will lead to the greatest sense of wholeness and congruence for you.

I have many years of experience offering Corporate Diversity Training in large and small American and international companies and law firms, helping to develop and implement policies and procedures that facilitate transition in the workplace for transgender individuals. In addition, I educate medical, psychological, and legal professionals on transgender issues at universities, conferences, and at professional associations offering continuing education experiences.

My office is located in beautiful downtown Decatur, Georgia, right next door to Atlanta. I am willing to work with clients in person or by telephone.
