When you’ve hit your breaking point... constant arguments, deep disconnection, and trust that feels lost, it’s exhausting. The shame, regret, and silence can feel just as painful as the conflict itself. As a family and couples therapist in Nashville, I help parents, partners, and families find their way back to repair, trust, and real connection; even when it feels too far gone. I offer a supportive space where we can slow things down, strengthen communication, rebuild trust, and help you feel more connected, empowered, and secure in your relationships. Don't give up; your family is worth fighting for!

I work best with motivated adults and teens struggling with relationships, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and/or life transitions. I help you increase your connection, clarity, meaning and happiness by offering hope and affirmative counseling tailored to your personal/cultural perspective. Clients of any culture, race, religion, socio-economic status or sexual orientation are welcome in my office.

I believe that healing is always possible—no matter where you begin. Change doesn’t happen all at once; it unfolds softly, in moments of awareness and courage.
In my work, I offer individual therapy and trauma-informed care for teen girls, college-aged women, and adult women and men. My first priority is creating a space where you can breathe—where honesty feels safe, and your emotions have room to be seen and understood.

Is it difficult for you to complete tasks? Do you get overwhelmed and unsure where to even begin? Counseling with me starts with education. We'll explore questions like why is it so hard to start something that you know you need to do? Why is it hard to stay motivated or focused? Next, I'll equip you with those practical tools you're looking for, like goal setting, organization, and overcoming procrastination. I'll offer resources along the way and lots of handouts! Can you tell I was a teacher in a previous life?! I still love to teach, and believe in empowering my clients through education.

Understanding my clients' needs/goals is fundamental to the therapeutic alliance and facilitating growth/well-being. Clients seek therapy for many reasons, each rooted in unique experiences, challenges, and aspirations. Through empathetic listening, reflective inquiry, and collaborative exploration, I strive to truly understand my client. At the core for many clients' is a yearning for understanding and validation. They seek a safe space to unravel thoughts, emotions, and experiences without fear of judgment or dismissal. In the midst of life's complexities, the therapeutic relationship serves as a refuge to be seen and heard.

Have you experienced the benefit of traditional talk therapy in the past, but are ready to go deeper into your healing? Many of my clients want to not just cope out of their triggers effectively, but also address the core wounds that are often the root of self-destructive behaviors, including addiction, codependency, dysfunctional relationships, and anxiety. These behaviors are often defenses in order to avoid feeling the hurt that happened long ago.
I also love working with therapy 'newbies', who come in wanting to understand why they do what they do and have a better relationship with themselves and others!

I decided to become a therapist because of my own struggles with mental health issues especially as an adolescent and young adult. I want to take these awful experiences and use them as motivation to help others. If you are an over thinker, I believe I can help. I work with engineers, executives, health care professionals, teachers, and pretty much any person who is in a profession that tends to reward perfectionism and over analysis.

In a world that looks more connected than ever, many people feel deeply isolated. You may seem “fine” on the outside while carrying anxiety, shame, grief, or self-doubt. I work with adolescents and young adults navigating anxiety, identity, trauma, and life transitions, and I treat a wide range of concerns. Many clients feel overwhelmed, stuck, or are exploring their neurodivergence. I offer a judgment-free, collaborative space rooted in trust, helping you build self-understanding, coping skills, and a life that feels more aligned and sustainable.

Do you feel like you’ve been carrying life’s struggles on your own? I know firsthand how heavy that can be. Sometimes it feels like no one else could possibly understand the complexities of our depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship struggles. I have witnessed, through years of this work, how vital and healing human connection can be. Whether you are an adult woman navigating the weight of trauma, a teen or young adult overwhelmed by anxiety or depression, or a parent striving to help your child through difficult times, I would be honored to walk alongside you as you face what feels unmanageable and discover new ways forward.

Often life can get overwhelming, and we can feel stuck. My passion is walking alongside of teens and adults as we sort through grief, loss, life changes, depression, anxiety, old wounds, or discovering your identity to find healing and clarity. I strive to create a safe, non judgmental environment and treat each client with respect and understanding. I also want to create a place where you can grow and begin resolving the issues that brought you into counseling. I tend to see counseling for each client as a journey, and my role is to encourage, guide, and help you develop the tools necessary to continue on your unique path.

Therapy with me is a space where you can let down your guard and bring your whole self—your struggles, your strengths, and your humor. I strive to create an atmosphere that is peaceful and non-judgmental, while also being dynamic and solution-oriented.
My goal is not for you to be dependent on therapy, but to feel empowered and equipped to be your own best therapist. Let's work together to transform struggles into strengths.

After experiencing my own trials in life, I learned just how beneficial counseling can be to supporting us through life’s difficulties. It is my goal to provide that healthy support to others who are walking hard paths. For me, the therapeutic relationship involves a mutual learning from one another, as well as addressing a person’s needs from all arenas, including emotional, physical, and spiritual. An understanding of attachment helps me encourage clients to find clarity in their lives and healthier relationships with self and others. I am grateful for the honor of being a safe space for clients.

You’re not sure where to start, but you know that you’re struggling. You need someone to come alongside to provide support, insight, and ultimately help you experience relief. I specialize in providing support for children 4+ and teens who are experiencing distress as a result of life stress, trauma or a change in connection. I’m also passionate about providing a safe, secure space for young adults who have lived with this same distress and are ready to seek support in making sense of their lived experience. Symptoms of distress - like feeling crazy, overwhelmed, or hopeless - do not have to be navigated alone.

We KNOW what to do but so many of us can't stick to it. If you have tried therapy and it feels like something is still missing- it's time to try a different type of therapy. I specialize in working with: “Things look great on the outside but I feel like a mess on the inside,” Struggling self-worth, low confidence, chronic shame, self-criticism, and "What is my purpose?" My desire is to help you return to your natural state of aliveness, presence, and inner clarity. The details are on my website (there's a link on this page) but the short of it is- I can support you at the heart of things effectively and efficiently

Life's too short to let anyone or anything steal your sparkle. I'm here to help you find your voice, rebuild trust in yourself, and learn to laugh again (even if it's at the absurdity of it all).
I work best with clients who are ready to go deeper and want to understand the unconscious beliefs quietly shaping their lives. My approach is warm, insight-based, and relational. Together we slow down, get curious, and develop a compassionate relationship with every part of you, even the parts that make you cringe.
