Let's Connect (615) 471-6870

I work with individuals navigating anxiety, low self-worth, and major life transitions. I also specialize in grief, trauma, and substance use—whether you're personally struggling or supporting someone who is. When I mention "trauma," I don’t just mean the big, obvious events. Trauma can come from experiences like divorce, emotional neglect, chronic illness, pregnancy loss, or feeling abandoned. If something in your story still feels heavy, overwhelming, or unresolved, it matters. All you need to begin is a willingness to show up. From there, we walk the path together.

I use a strengths-based approach to help clients build skills, shift patterns, and develop support. I integrate mindfulness and goal-setting, and I’m trained in EMDR and certified in DBT. Sessions are tailored to your needs so we can work at a pace that feels grounded, supportive, and effective.

Choosing the right counselor is deeply personal, and I want you to feel confident in your decision. I offer a free 20-minute discovery call to see if we’re a good fit. And if I’m not the right match, I’ll gladly connect you with trusted providers. However I can help, it would be an honor to support your journey.

In my practice, I often draw from CBT, EMDR, and DBT to support your goals. In our first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and begin setting a direction for treatment. CBT helps identify how thoughts influence emotions and behavior, DBT builds skills for managing distress and emotions, and EMDR supports deep trauma processing.
