Licensed Professional Counselor

Shay is an experienced Licensed Professional Counselor in Georgia and Mississippi.  She attended The University of Southern Mississippi where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s degree in Counselor Education from Mississippi State University.  

Shay believes as we move throughout our lives, there are instances in which we find ourselves experiencing feelings that can be hard to describe and understand. Anxiety, depression, mood changes and self esteem issues are just a few of the elements we encounter in our quest to have a fulfilling life. As a Licensed Professional Counselor Shay believes that the therapeutic relationship is the primary vehicle for growth, change, healing and restoration and she works to create an environment to feel safe, heard and understood.
