Transgender Therapists in Memphis, TN

I work with individuals and partnerships who are neurodivergent (ASD, ADHD) those in “alternative” relationship structures (LGBTQIA+, ENM, poly, open, swinging, kink), those who have experienced trauma, struggle with depression or anxiety, are hoping to do some self-exploration (sexual, gender, career, religious, etc.), or are looking for a change. Because every person is unique, your needs and desires will also be unique. I approach my work through a trauma-informed lens, using evidence-based practices that find a balance between thinking and feeling and emphasize the importance of connection, experience and safety.

My goal is to assist you in therapy to help discover your true self, and lead you to a life worth celebrating. While no one can change difficult situations or experiences of the past, you and I can work together to better understand and resolve the challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapeutic approaches and techniques, I will help you change long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

"I believe in treating every individual as a unique person with dreams, ambitions, and desires that should be encouraged, pursued, and always regarded with respect."

Many of my clients are thoughtful, driven individuals who’ve built impressive lives while carrying silent burdens—grief, trauma, shame, or disconnection. They often identify as high-achieving, insightful, & maybe a little perfectionistic. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, sexual trauma, or complexities in your relationships, I offer a space where you don’t have to hold it all together. Here, you can be messy, honest, & deeply human. I practice from an existential & trauma-informed foundation, blending philosophical depth with practical tools. I’m an AASECT-Certified Sex Therapist, trained in EMDR & other evidence-based modalities.

Learning how to heal from trauma you have experienced as a child and adult can have a very positive impact on your life. I am looking for clients that are ready to discover how the trauma they have experienced affects them, how to develop healthy coping skills, how to learn how to develop and maintain healthy relationships, and how to regain a sense of security within themselves.

You’re carrying so much—taking care of everyone, handling work, managing life—but when was the last time you focused on you? It’s easy to put yourself last, but that doesn’t mean you have to stay stuck in the cycle of overwhelm. You deserve support, space to breathe, and a path forward that actually feels good. Let’s work on that together.

Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. -Desmond Tutu. Sometimes it is hard to be hopeful when we are faced with problems in our life.

From the onset of our time working together, we will establish hope as a foundation. From there we can address whatever burdens you carry together, to give you the knowledge and skills you need to live fully and happily.
