About us

My social work career began in June 1998 working with The Georgia Department of Family and Children’s Services, until January 2015. While I was fortunate to be working in such a diverse environment with some amazing colleagues and peers, I remained frustrated that regardless of how “high” I went up (position-wise) the job always entailed navigating bureaucratic red tape and non-negotiable policies. It seemed that very few interventions I had with clients were positive in their lives or the lives of others. I was painfully aware that most people do not fare well when managed from a “one-size fits all” approach to healing and rebuilding themselves and their lives. I often disagreed with the policies families felt trapped under – yet I was charged to enforce and uphold. For me, the end to this means was to take my social work career in a very different direction – a clinical direction.
