Welcome!

Welcome to Wonders Counseling Services, LLC located at 4985 Lower Roswell Road Building 200 in Marietta, Georgia convenient also to Roswell, Woodstock, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody and close access to I-285 and Hwy. 400.

As a licensed professional counselor (LPC), registered play therapist and supervisor (RPT-S) and experienced registered yoga teacher (E-RYT), I provide a variety of support services for women, couples and children in an environment that is warm, inviting, and soothing.

My approach is largely based on the practice and philosophy of mindfulness and mind-body connection. This foundation enriches and infuses my work in couples counseling and play therapy with children as well as supporting women with life-transitions. Over the past ten years of practice I have noted consistent and profound growth and healing for clients who have benefitted from this foundational approach to therapy.

Who I am and how I can help…

Wonders Counseling Services, LLC was established to provide services for women, couples, children and professionals. I operate from a mind-body theoretical and practical foundation giving full consideration to the whole person in all of my services.  I have created a very special office and studio space  for my practice for all of my services that is warm, home-like and relaxing for all the senses.

After five fruitful years of running and managing a full scale counseling center for child and adult clients and a yoga studio,  I came to the conclusion my greatest joy comes from the services I provide to my own clients and students. I sold Marietta Counseling to a colleague and opened Wonders Counseling Services, LLC in July 2012.

As a licensed professional counselor, I blend traditional methods of psychotherapy with variety of other effective techniques to create customized plans for recovery, healing and growth for all of my clients.  On a foundation of the philosophy and practice of mindfulness, I find myself serving as a “tour guide” for people who choose a journey of self discovery, healing, growing through life-changes whether these changes are thrust upon them or by choice. I provide instruction and guidance in the practices of meditation, gentle yoga and the daily practice of Mindfulness for those interested in these practices.   

I’m a writer having published numerous articles on the subject of parenting and child development as well as on the subjects of mindfulness practice. Currently, I am working on a book to be published in 2013 about practical applications of mindfulness and the life journey.   I frequently do guest lecturing at local colleges and I am often interviewed by other authors to provide expert perspective for various articles published in magazines.
