Let's Connect (615) 989-6416 x8

My clients have complicated family relationships, which often include addiction, boundary conflicts, or a lack of emotional understanding. They tend to be anxious overthinkers, striving to break intergenerational cycles, but they struggle to connect with themselves on a deeper level. Our work together will focus on increasing your emotional understanding, identifying the patterns that are keeping you from living the life you desire, and moving into a space of self-acceptance.
If you're looking for an interactive, compassionate, and curious therapist, you've found the right person. My greatest strength is my casual and direct style, so you won't be left guessing what you accomplish in therapy. I incorporate a range of evidence-based modalities like DBT, RO-DBT, MI, CBT, and IFS, which allows us to tailor treatment to you.
As a social worker, I'll work hard to connect you with whatever additional resources you need and empower you to have the life you envision. Let's celebrate your successes together!
