Approved supervisor in TN and KY. Accepting new supervisees in TN and KY for individual and group supervision virtually. New clients are referred to supervisees as Kandie is not accepting new clients. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life. My main objective is to provide a safe, judgment free zone where clients can discuss and work through the struggles in their life. My goal is not to give you advice but to provide a different perspective and cognitive behavioral tools for you to use through your therapeutic journey. Helping clients Defy the Limits they have set in order to embrace a happier more fulfilled life.
My passions lie in working with humanitarian workers, military, women struggling with self love & religious deconstruction. Skilled in topics such anxiety, self-esteem and self worth, weight related struggles, body positivity, self harm behavior, trauma, religious trauma & deconstruction. Practice from a CBT foundation. Trained in Trauma Focused CBT.
Minored in Intercultural Studies because I have a passion for working with a diverse group of people. Every person, couple, family are different and does not fit into a cookie cutter mold. In my practice I help clients realize what works for them in relation to their culture, beliefs, values, morals.
