I would love to explore and assist you in aligning your attractor field with your authentic self. You can shift your daily experiences by uncovering what your deepest desire is attracting and manifesting in life. Are you ready to consciously meet your needs rather than allowing hidden imprints and beliefs to create repeating loops. Many symptoms of mental health including past trauma, addictive tendencies, and relationship issues can create a loss of hope and loss of excitement about life. I will assist you in clearing a path for your next chapter in the book of life.

My dad always says that "a major lesson in life is to realize that everything changes except change itself." Life is loaded with change and stressors and many of us struggle to survive without constant worrying. Living with a disability or chronic illness can feel even more overwhelming and impossible to manage. I hope to help my clients discover (or re-discover) their strengths and abilities while also learning how to adapt and cope with everyday life.

Healing can happen in many ways—not just through talk, but through creative expression, movement, and exploration. I work with clients ready to engage in a safe, supportive space to process trauma, explore emotions, and express themselves freely. Whether through art, poetry, dance, or improv, my goal is to help you release what your body and mind may still hold and move toward a greater sense of freedom and well-being.

We also offer medication management for anxiety, depression, and ADHD- a one stop destination to complete wellness!
In 2020, co-owners and couple Aaron and Heather Delay began dreaming up the possibility of serving the Memphis, Tennessee community with more than just counseling, but a full, holistic health journey. “Whole” to them means truly focusing on an individual’s physical health, mental health, relationships, and spiritual growth. It’s not only important for them to identify the problems, but to help understand where the problems came from and how they can help guide you through the journey of solving them. They knew that a place like this didn’t exist in Memphis…so they decided to create it.

Medication Management Therapists

What are the most effective ways to manage medications?

One of the most effective ways a patient can manage their medications is to keep a list of each drug and dosage they take. Such a list can be helpful in keeping to their schedule and can also be something they bring to their psychiatrist or other physician so that the healthcare provider has a clear picture of what they’re taking and in what quantity. Using a pill organizer can be useful for memory and organization. Patients should discuss their medications and their effects at every appointment.

What are the risks if medications are not managed properly?

A suboptimal approach to medication management can lead to potentially harmful health outcomes. Most psychiatric drugs have side effects, and if a patient is not aware of them, they may seek additional medical help or over the counter or prescription drugs to treat the side effects, which may have its own side effects, a process called “prescription cascade.” Another risk to disorganization is that a psychiatrist without full knowledge of a patient’s regimen could prescribe a medication that should not be mixed with a patient’s existing drugs.

What’s the best way to encourage someone to get help managing their medications?

It’s helpful to express concern and love for the person while framing medication management as a tool for improving their life and avoiding dangerous side effects. Offering specific examples of an individual’s failure to properly manage their medication regimen should be done with compassion and with empathy. It may be useful to break management down into parts, and there are several apps that can be used to organize which drugs are ingested, when they need to be refilled, and how they should be stored.

Are there natural treatments that can replace medications?

While there are many medications that can be vital to mental health, there are some natural lifestyle changes that can help reduce the need for drugs. Regular exercise, good sleep habits, a healthy diet, and therapy can all go a long way in symptom relief. Psychiatric medications typically treat symptoms but do not necessarily treat the cause of the condition. Many clinicians consider medications an adjunct to treatment rather than a treatment in and of itself.
