Amerigroup Therapists in Tennessee

I enjoy helping clients build resilience and feel a sense of safety both within themselves and with the outside world. Professional experience includes serving children, adolescents, adults, and families in the settings of community outreach, outpatient services, foster care, adoption, and mental health/addiction treatment centers. I am passionate about promoting personal growth, empowerment, advocacy, and self-efficacy. I strive to connect with clients in a safe therapeutic alliance to help increase tolerance thresholds through psycho-education, therapeutic interventions, skills practice, mind-body connection, and self-awareness.

In a world that continues to turn with or without us, we often wonder where we can get off in order to regroup. When we are expected to fulfill all of the everyday roles that we have taken on, we tend to lose touch with ourselves. My purpose is to provide an open, restorative and non-judgmental healing space for you. I am pleased to work with individuals who want help with anxiety, depression, trauma and grief. As well as providing support during life transitions, unexpected changes and personal growth.

Are you running your life, or is life running you? Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected? Now more than ever, many feel pressured to normalize anxiety, depression, and hopelessness as just a part of life as they struggle to heal from painful wounds of past trauma and abuse or navigate life transitions, grief and loss, or self-image issues. But stuffing emotions and pushing your needs away can lead to long-term problems for your mind and body. Specializing in the invisible wounds and unspoken struggles that can steal our joy, I’m passionate about helping others experience the freedom and healing I know firsthand is possible.

Sometimes the hardest part is taking your first step toward bettering your life. You may not know where to begin? Are you feeling overwhelmed with your day-to-day life responsibilities? Struggling with motivation or feeling hopeless? Do you feel things from your past are coming up and preventing you from maximizing your potential? Do you just need to vent and get unbiased feedback? I can help you navigate these things piece by piece and get you on the road to your best self. Therapy can help you develop a new perspective and coping skills to manage your life stressors.

I am passionate about working with first responders and veterans. I understand the importance of having a counselor that is culturally competent in these professions. As a former first responder of 18 years (firefighter, EMT and peace officer), I have a sincere and genuine motivation to continue helping others. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, relationships, performance related challenges with athletes, and sexual health. I work with many individuals from all walks of life, not just first responders.

My goal & passion is to value all walks of life & experiences! I know it can be difficult to seek help, the idea of counseling can freak some people out. However, if you're looking here, you're halfway there. The impact of trauma, stigma toward mental health, addictions, the LGBTQ+ community, infidelity can reinforce dysfunctional coping, self-loathing and sometimes self-harm. It can keep people stuck. I understand this on a personal and professional level. Therapy's not easy and not the most ideal at times, but can help if you team up with someone who will earn your trust. I want to help those who want and need support

You may be facing a range of issues, such as anxiety, stress, depression, or a general feeling of being stuck or unfulfilled.

Your needs are multifaceted, encompassing emotional support, a compassionate listener, and a skilled guide to help you navigate the complexities of your experiences. Together, we will create a therapeutic relationship built on trust, empathy, and collaboration, enabling you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in a non-judgmental environment.

Research supports that choosing a therapist you feel comfortable with is key to successful outcomes. Choosing one who will wade through the currents with you in partnership, while offering compassion, encouragement and a safe place to express yourself is vital.

In my 50+ years I have personally experienced a lot of things that my clients share with me. I am able to empathize or and the very least identify with my client`s needs. My approach is Person/Client Centered; Person-centered therapy uses a non-authoritative approach that allows clients to take more of a lead in discussions so that, in the process, they will discover their own solutions. The therapist acts as a compassionate facilitator, listening without judgment and acknowledging the client’s experience without moving the conversation in another direction. The therapist is there to encourage and support the client.
