"I’m a licensed therapist specializing in trauma and anxiety. The population I focus on working with are children aged 8-17, as well as adults, 18-50 years old. I believe healing happens through compassionate understanding and practical tools tailored to each person’s journey.  

My approach is client-centered and solution-focused, emphasizing empathy and empowerment. I believe clients lead their own healing process, and I stand beside them—using CBT and mindfulness techniques to support lasting growth and practical change.”

Georgia Rae Counseling Services, LLC 
Helping Children, Families, and Individuals Heal and Grow 
“I’m the owner of Georgia Rae Counseling Services, LLC, where I specialize in working with children ages 3–17, as well as individual adults and families. My approach draws from Family Systems Theory and Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), but is eclectic to meet each client’s unique needs. 

I offer play therapy and have specialties in working with clients who have ADHD, PANDAS/PANS, and trauma. Since beginning my work in the field of psychology in 1997, I’ve remained passionate about helping people navigate life’s challenges and emerge feeling empowered, balanced, and equipped with the tools to succeed in relationships, work, and personal growth.

At Georgia Rae Counseling Services, my goal is to help clients heal from what has held them back—and to guide them toward confidence, resilience, and lasting change. 

In addition to clinical work, I also mentor and guide professional therapists who are interested in becoming independent and building their own successful private practices.
