Are you where you imagined you’d be in life?
So often, we move through the world relying on survival skills. Depression, anxiety, addiction, or difficult relationships may have been ways you’ve learned to cope. But healing is possible—you can begin creating the life you truly want, one that brings you peace and happiness.
Stress builds in the body, and emotions from the past often remain alive within us. I would be honored to walk alongside you as you move through fear, shame, anger, or numbness—toward a place where you can feel whole, empowered, and joyful again.

I love to help bright, capable, and highly sensitive people find their way to a more authentic lived experience and break out of unhealthy patterns and relationships that result from low self-worth and trauma. I completed EMDR training in 2019 and this has given me a trauma-informed orientation. I also enjoy using the Enneagram framework to help clients become more aware of patterns of personality. I call my business Deep Well Journey because I believe that wellness involves a purposeful journey into the deepest parts of the self in order to tend wounds, reconnect with values, and discover unique potential and purpose.

I specialize in engaging with individuals who are encountering challenges secondary to life stressors, relational discord, and formalized disorders including PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Panic, OCD, and ADHD. I take a client-centered and collaborative approach to therapy. I work with clients to tailor each session to the unique needs and goals being presented. I strive to create a safe and supportive environment where clients feel able to not only be themselves, but to explore the ways in which past events may currently be impacting current thoughts, feelings, and core beliefs.

My clients often come to therapy feeling disconnected — from themselves, their relationships, or their place in the world. They may carry the weight of past traumas, or relationship struggles, or simply sense that something in their soul longs to be heard. Many seek a space that feels safe, grounded, and authentic. They want to heal in ways that are embodied, relational, and deeply rooted — often beyond traditional talk therapy. They’re not just looking for insights, but to have transformational experiences.
I offer sessions online, in a Johnson City office, or outdoors at the Fauna Forest Farm (10 mins from ETSU's campus).

Is the past influencing your present life? I have discovered that so many of us have a hard time living in the present because of things from our past... or we struggle because we don't believe we are "good enough." I have been practicing for 15 + years. I am trained in EMDR and believe everyone can grow, heal, and live fulfilling lives. My greatest joy is seeing my clients redefine who they are according to their values...Being able to be authentic. No longer confined to the pressures, ideals and expectations of others or shackled to the past.

Let’s admit it, sometimes life sucks! That’s especially true if you’ve experienced an earth-shattering event. It feels like your personal world has tilted off its axis and nothing is in balance yet the world around you keeps spinning like usual. It’s hard to function and feels isolating. The sooner you process an event like that the better. The problem is many times you don’t realize how an event like that will impact you until it shows up in problematic ways.

See More Female Therapists FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
