Female Therapists in Chattanooga, TN

Life's challenges can lead us to a place where recognizing the person in the mirror becomes foreign. Wounds of the past may feel like hurdles that keep us from living the life we’ve wanted. The fights with your partner, the fear of the future, or desiring a sense of direction and meaningful connection can leave us feeling frozen, overwhelmed, and distanced from where we’d like to be. Your unique experience matters - which is why I work to foster empathy, openness, authenticity, safety, and caring challenges within therapy - to meet you where you are and journey beside you as you seek to find yourself and/or your relationship again.

Walking through life feeling weighed down by your current life circumstances can be overwhelming and is not sustainable long term. Therapy can provide healing and relief for the many challenges we face daily. I work closely with teens, young adults, and adult women who are struggling with anxiety, depression, and other concerns.

"Well, this isn’t working! What do I do now?" If you are wondering this, I welcome whatever you have to discuss. I love to see a client walk into the room, bursting with the issues carried on the heart, and experience the relief that comes from finally sharing these burdens out loud in a safe space. I see mostly women and female adolescents, plus a few men who want to dig deep. I work best with people who are ready to explore, looking for change, but aren't sure of how to get there.

My philosophy combines a non-judgmental, compassionate approach to therapy, with honest, direct feedback. I specialize in EMDR to help clients overcome past issues which are keeping them stuck. I welcome people of all perspectives. I will be an active participant in working with you as you seek to address personal and relationship issues.

I believe in the importance of treating the whole person: body, mind, spirit. My approach is empowering you to make your own decisions, to help you set your own goals and to walk with you on your journey to health.

Counseling can have life long impacts on a person’s quality of life, self-worth and relationships. When we explore our thoughts, emotions, and actions from a curious and compassionate stance, we develop self-reliance and new opportunities to relate to others and ourselves. I approach therapy as a collaborative process. I am committed to helping you set goals and celebrating with you as you make progress.

During our lifetime, we humans go through many life transitions. Helping women , couples, children, and teens succeed through life's many demands is my focus and passion.Working with women who are experiencing a life transition is one of my primary strengths. The second area of focus within my practice is the couple's relationship. My focus with couples is working on communication, conflict resolution, relationship strengthening, and emotional attunement. The third strength of my practice lies in the counseling of children and teens. For children, sessions involve interactive play therapy techniques that address anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.

Hello! Thanks for stopping by to check out my page. I work with couples, women , and teenagers and see a variety of issues including depression, anxiety, life transitions, self-esteem, and relational problems/wounds. As a Christian, I also enjoy working with concerns surrounding faith and spiritual development.

I help women who are passionate about finding their most authentic selves, and possess a deep desire to live a life that's a true reflection of who they are and their values. Women are finding new ways of living everyday, but change is often scary, especially when we lack a working template of the ways we want to show up different. We want a life that leaves us feeling fulfilled, rather than empty. Inspired rather than soulless. To live a life driven by purpose and passion. Working together, we'll explore how to break free from learned toxic relationship patterns, unhealthy societal expectations, and outdated gender roles.

We all have a story and a journey filled with highs and lows. Our paths often lead us to challenge ourselves in ways we never imagined. One thought can turn into ruminating doubt, negative self-talk, or trigger past trauma. It is during those times when we deserve a safe space to unpack before continuing on our life's calling. Accept our invitation to heal in the convenience of your own home. We created a virtual healing space for women to grow and heal courageously. Do not allow emotional and subconscious barriers to interfere with living a fulfilling life.

You have found the courage to begin, and you want someone to walk with you. Maybe you are tired of feeling the crushing weight of anxiety or depression. Maybe you are the parent of a child with special needs, and you don't know what to do next, but you know you need to do something. Maybe you are finally admitting to yourself the truth about your sexuality, spirituality, or situation, and you are ready to grow into the person you are meant to be. I would be honored to join you on your journey.
