Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Therapists in Tennessee

My clients are often those struggling with anxiety, self-worth, and life transitions/adjustments. I also have particular specialities and experience with grief, substance addictions or those who are the loved one of a person with addictions, and trauma. When you read the word "trauma" it doesn't have to mean only abuse, car accidents, etc. There are various stressful life experiences that register as trauma, such as divorce, neglect/abandonment, health related issues and diagnoses, miscarriages, and many more. All that is needed from you is a desire to be present in the counseling space. The rest we walk through together.

Compassion, trust and balance are at the heart of the work that we do. We approach challenges with curiosity and collaboration. We strive to provide a supportive and therapeutic environment where you can navigate your concerns and align yourself with your goals. Treatment is customized and unique, as each person who we work with is special and has distinct strengths, needs and preferences. We value diversity and foster inclusivity as an ally and as a partner on your individual path. We are direct and thoughtful, supportive and empathic. We work with clients to develop strengths and achieve life goals.

I work well with clients whom are seeking to improve their quality of life. If there’s ever a moment where one maybe feeling a void, emptiness inside of them I assist and facilitate clients through rediscovery of self. The concept of being fully aware of oneself and how you see the world is crucial to identifying and upholding your personal values and standards. It’s when we neglect our standards of living do we find conflict or that internal battle. Most of the time this happens when a life stressor occurs. My ideal client is one whom is ready to move from victim to survivor.

Offering a healing place for life changes that start with your personal readiness to go beyond the surface level issues. For individuals that ready to take a journey of personal transformation. Peeling back layers, whether hidden or aware to release, restore, connect and live authentically...mind, body and spirit.

Sessions may include education around the role of trauma, past experience, and neurochemistry in how we feel and act now, mindfulness exercises, relaxation practices, creativity-based activities, and the development of individualized plans to help practice healthier thought and behavior patterns.

Sometimes the strongest thing you can do is to ask for help. We all come to therapy for various reasons.

My specialty is focused on helping individuals who struggle with anxiety disorders by targeting the somatic symptoms, irrational thoughts, and behavioral patterns keeping them from growing into their best versions of themselves. I also specialize in helping women struggling after traumatic experiences, navigating difficult life transitions, and healing after relationship conflicts.

I find fulfillment in assisting individuals who struggle to establish meaningful connections and are often marginalized or labeled as challenging.

Are you looking for help with personal changes? Relationship changes? I am interested in the profoundly personal stories and images that reflect our relationships. How we imagine our lives impacts our lives. Sharing our story in a deeply confidential and personal environment creates change. The process is collaborative and healing. Possibly the best therapists are those who themselves have risked and managed change well. I treat individuals, couples and families. Talk and guidance reduce anxiety and depression.

Therapy for individuals, couple, and families. There are times when life is painful and seemingly without answers, yet what seems most broken in us can be a channel for growth, even a source of strength we never knew was possible. My own healing through therapy and mindfulness meditation inspired me to pursue an MA in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco -- the first program in the world to blend Eastern philosophical and spiritual traditions with Western schools of psychology. Today, I feel honored to support others on their journey toward healing.

Life can be difficult but therapy doesn't have to be. If you've talked about your struggles just to feel worse afterwards and see little to no progress, I'd like to introduce myself. You don't need to relive every past hurt or leave feeling emotionally drained by the end of session. Change is possible without years of therapy. Let me help you figure out what's holding you back and find real, practical solutions so you can live life the way you want to. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC-MHSP) with over 6 years of experience working with with children, adolescents, and adults.

I have been working in the field of mental healthcare since 2012. While my experience has granted me the privilege of working with a variety of ages and issues, I am most passionate about working with trauma, anger management, panic, anxiety, cutting and self-harming, dissociation, and domestic violence. I have training in EMDR, a specialized therapy developed for the treatment of Post-traumatic Stress and other trauma related concerns. I also frequently utilize mindfulness and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy skills training in my approach as a way to build resilience and healthy coping.
