I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with extensive experience working with individuals and families who experience Mental Health and/or Substance Use.
My passion and vision are to provide an evidence-based, holistic approach to well-being in a supportive and nurturing environment. I strive to establish trust through nonjudgmental and therapeutic partnerships with my clients. My personal life journey is also my source of empathy and compassion. I am driven by supporting others in overcoming challenges in their quest for well-being and desire to lead more fulfilling lives. 
I bring my experience as a clinician and a former executive in the financial services industry. As someone who spent years in stressful work environments, I have a unique understanding of the impact of stressors or trauma on individuals and their families and their effect on an individual’s ability to overcome future challenges. 

Although I grew up in Bosnia, my work and life experiences led me to integrate and adapt to multicultural and fast-paced environments, such as those in London, the UK, New York, and Atlanta.  My approach considers the multicultural backgrounds and experiences of clients. It utilizes the most effective tools, from cognitive behavioral therapy to trauma-informed, solution-focused, mindfulness, and strength-based approaches.
Our work together will also consider and incorporate the latest research on how physical health and nutrition impact overall well-being. I have a Master’s in Mental Health and Wellness (MA Counseling) from New York University and a Master’s in Psychology (MSc Psychology) from Derby University in the UK.
