I am a holistic integrative wellness practitioner. I specialize in helping clients struggling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and trauma. I particularly love helping those individuals who may be struggling with low self-esteem and self-worth. I enjoy guiding my clients to identify their own strengths and unlock the hidden potential that each of us possesses. I love working with individuals who are ready for change but are in need of some extrinsic motivation and guidance. For those parents who are looking for assistance for their children, I have extensive experience working with all ages, ranging from 4 to 18 years old.

We use Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, Trauma Focused-CBT, mindfulness, and culturally responsive approaches.
What if healing didn’t mean fixing yourself—but coming home to who you’ve always been?
Our ideal clients are deep feelers, cycle breakers, late-diagnosed neurodivergent folks, or those exploring their identity, faith, or relationships in new ways. They want relief from anxiety, clarity in their story, and freedom to be their full selves. Whether they’re navigating trauma, burnout, or self-worth, they’re ready for healing rooted in compassion and accountability. We specialize in restoring relationships- the relationship with your friends, family, community, the world, but most importantly your relationship with self.

I’m nationally certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
I believe a counselor’s role isn’t to tell you how to live your life, but to assist you with determining what you want your life to be and the steps to achieving that life and your goals. Therapy is a collaborative process and I want to be your partner on your journey.

I use an integrative therapeutic approach, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), trauma focused therapy, and neurodiveristy.
There are times life becomes difficult. Obstacles present themselves and you just need guidance on how to overcome or cope with them. Situations may cause you to feel as if there is a loss of control of your life. Generational challenges, including trauma, addictions, communication problems, and stress could cause a once balanced lifestyle become chaotic. Life happens and everyone needs an advocate. For those times I am there to help clients, move forward and maneuver life, family, career, and social interactions.

As a therapist I strive to provide a safe and nurturing space where you feel free to explore what it means to be you and navigate life’s struggles without judgement. Therapy brings us to some of our most vulnerable moments, and I make it my mission for you to feel heard, validated, and free to discover, maybe for the first time or perhaps again, who you are or who you’d like to become. I help clients navigate ways to improve their lives while also treating trauma-related issues, grief, relational and interpersonal challenges, family of origin issues, depression, and anxiety.

I work with clients, couples, families to learn about: Healthy Communication skills; Substance Use Recovery, Trauma focused therapy, Mental/Physical/Emotional/Sexual abuse, Anxiety, Depression, Relationships
I believe people of all ages experience problematic situations or events that create the "Core Beliefs" we hold deep inside. These beliefs can help you feel more confident in the person you want to be while the negative core beliefs can hold you back from growing and living a happy and satisfying life. Clients I see want to know the "why or what happened to me that holds me back from being the real me. I want to give and receive love. I want to be honest with myself and with the people I love. I want to be heard and not judged. I just want to find happiness, acceptance, and pride in myself versus living in shame, anger and fear."

As a clinician with lived experience in a country marked by apartheid, I bring a deeply personal understanding of how systemic oppression impacts mental and emotional well-being. My therapeutic approach is rooted in social justice, recognizing that the structures we live under can strip away our sense of control, leaving us feeling powerless and overwhelmed. I believe healing must acknowledge these systemic forces while empowering clients to reclaim agency in their lives.

Mental health is a big "elephant in the room" that can be scary to talk about. Rejection from others, lack of support, and bad experiences can all contribute to our desire to close off and push through. I want to be a safe, non-judgemental space for you to work through trauma, emotions, substance use, whatever it is that you need. Be honest, be open, be you.

Annie Dillard wrote "How we spend our days is of course, how we spend our lives." As you begin or resume therapy we can explore the satisfying aspects of your life and determine where you want to make shifts or radical changes toward health and ease of being. My approach to therapy is rooted in the therapeutic relationship we will develop to explore compassionate, practical solutions to the unique challenges you face. Trust, empathy, hope, mindfulness, and humor are the foundations of my approach to living and healing.

I strive to meet every client where they are - regardless of how they got there. Trauma has a way of overwhelming our senses and making us feel out of control in our own bodies. If you have been struggling with managing your emotions, and you feel like some of the smallest things could set you off, then it could be helpful to process those feelings.

Some need trauma focused sessions to reconcile their past.
You've known for a while that you needed to talk about that old stuff that keeps coming up for you. It's always running, like a bad movie, in the back of your mind. Even when you're trying to just lget through your day.
You've heard some folks call it trauma. But, what's that? All you know is that you can't get out of bed, you can't shake It all gets twisted. And there are ways to untwist the impact of trauma.
Proud to be on panels for Workers Compensation - Corvel & Sedgewick. On the job injury and workplace trauma therapy - anywhere Tennessee.
I am a Red Cross volunteer in Disaster Mental Health and sometimes deploy.
