Introduction

"All of Western medicine is built on getting rid of pain, which is not the same as healing. Healing is actually the capacity to hold pain." - Gabor Mate In addition to being the founder and owner of Align Wellness, I am a therapist, social worker, yoga and meditation teacher, educator, mentor, truth and freedom-seeker, authenticity- and vulnerability-encourager, energy-mover and space-holder. It is my hope that your work, with my support and walking-alongside style of guidance, will result in your life holding more joy, more peace, more stability, more abundance, and more freedom. My vibe is laid back, casual, accessible, unpretentious, and grounded. I'll likely be in yoga pants and my bare feet, and I'll welcome you to take your shoes off and get comfortable as well. It is my intention that everyone entering my space would feel completely at ease, accepted, and affirmed. I see clients in person only at my Thomasville, Georgia office.
