Emotionally Focused Therapists in East Memphis-Colonial-Yorkshire, Memphis, TN
I work with clients that present with a variety of issues - depression, anxiety, addiction - often stemming from underlying issues with codependency, low self-worth, family of origin issues, and unresolved trauma. I see individuals, couples, and adolescents. If appropriate, I like working with clients in a group setting where peer support and identification with others help clients feel less misunderstood, alone or different.

I have more than 6 years experience, and I utilize therapeutic modalities of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
Do you feel detached from your goals or feel like you’ve lost sight of what’s important in your life? Do you feel like you’re struggling to love yourself or separate yourself from narratives of what your life should look like? Maybe it’s time to take a step towards finding your most authentic self? Looks like you’ve come to the right place. Taking this first step can be scary, but I believe taking the leap can help you grow in ways never before realized.

You’re the one everyone relies on—at work, in relationships, and in your family. You take care of others, think about their feelings, and try not to disappoint anyone. But inside, you feel overwhelmed, emotionally tired, and unsure of what you even need anymore. You may feel guilty for wanting more rest, space, or support. You overthink decisions, second-guess yourself, and feel pressure to “get it right.” You’re exhausted from holding everything together and want relief that actually lasts—not just another way to cope.

Hello and welcome! I believe everyone has the capacity for change and is able to benefit from the power of therapy.

At times, it can be hard to find providers with experience in the areas where you’ve been struggling. Folks with eating disorders or disordered eating, perinatal and postpartum challenges, and trauma and PTSD can feel very alone and misunderstood as they try to find a community who has experience treating these issues. While I have experience in all of those areas, I also enjoy treating clients dealing with general self-esteem and self-worth issues, anxiety, depression and relationship issues. I believe in helping clients heal by rebuilding trust within themselves and with others as part of the therapeutic process.

The most important parts of mental wellness are the ability to increase one’s self-awareness and broaden one’s perspective. As your counselor, I will provide a safe and judgment free environment for you to gain a better understanding of whatever issues you are dealing with as an individual, couple, or in any other types of romantic relationships. The main goal of most clients is "to feel better," and I am here to help you make that goal more specific so that you can grow in the areas most important to you. I also strive to destigmatize counseling for men, Black / African-Americans, and other minority groups.

It’s exhausting to constantly second-guess yourself, tiptoe around someone you care about, or question whether your feelings are valid. The confusion, self-doubt, and emotional ups and downs can leave you feeling dismissed, devalued, or even invisible. You might be trying to make sense of a relationship that feels painful or toxic, whether you’re still in it or trying to move on. Beneath it all, there’s a deep need for clarity, connection, and a return to yourself. Healing is possible—and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

My main focus as a therapist is to help people create a deeper, more meaningful relationship with themselves and others. I offer a collaborative, compassionate approach when working with clients and choose to navigate the counseling process from an understanding that we are all complex beings with thoughts, feelings, needs, and, ultimately, the desire to feel whole.
My work is focused on adults who have experienced relational and/or attachment trauma within their families of origin, which can lead to anxiety, depression, dissociation, and other mental health struggles.
