***Now Accepting New Clients***I believe we are all born to create legacies. The world needs a perspective, idea, insight, talent, and gift that only you can give or bring. Different adversities attempt to diminish our belief that this is true. I am a therapist whose focus centers on client self-empowerment and determination. My passion is working with individuals and groups to help them ritualize peace by creating coping mechanisms to face challenges and achieve goals. My practice aims to promote healing by facilitating the creation of new road maps to personal wellness.
My ideal clients are adolescents, adults, and groups looking for a solution-focused approach to resolving their issues. My ideal client is open to holistic treatment modalities such as expressive arts, yoga, and mindfulness.I'm a macro grounded social worker with clinical expertise on a path shaped by advocating and empowering individuals to navigate change.
Our motto at Nashville Emotional Wellness (NEW) Counseling is real people, helping real people with real problems. We do this by helping people struggling with managing the responsibilities of everyday life, by helping people struggling to feel good about themselves and by helping people who are feeling lost and suffering from unhealed wounds.
