Therapists in Memphis, TN

It has been shown time and again the relationship between client and counselor is the most important part of a therapy experience. It is always on my mind to ensure that our relationship remains entirely focused on you, but as a part of the collaborative duo that will become client and therapist I’m happy to share a bit about myself. Relationally, I have been described as down-to-earth, authentic and sincere and I enjoy a bit of humorous banter in the therapy space as the situation calls for it. With humility and curiosity I am eager to hear about your life experiences. Licensed in TN (license 3396) & Virginia (license 0701010748)

Counseling with a healthy dose of sarcasm, swearing, and authenticity. We all know that life isn't easy. Everyone of us is challenged whether it's everyday life struggles, relationship problems, infertility, life transitions, or other mental health concerns. The strain of these stressors can build until you find yourself completely exhausted and overwhelmed. It takes strength to recognize that you need a little help. I'm hoping to help clients who are willing to be challenged, are seeking empathy, and are ready to make changes. It is my hope that clients can leave therapy feeling more centered and more capable to face life.

Do you find yourself "stuck" in old patterns? Are you having difficulty with managing stress, whether it is related to relationships or work? Do you find yourself unable to move past old hurts or pain? Through collaboration, therapy is a wonderful opportunity in which individuals can explore the answers to these questions. Working together helps create a safe and affirming environment in which individuals can learn how to live life more effectively. My therapeutic approach is flexible based on the needs of the patients, but is deeply rooted in the idea that much of one's suffering occurs outside of his or her awareness.

Progress is made in the struggle; if we’re not struggling, we’re stagnant. People are inherently resilient and resourceful, but sometimes we bump up against something that leaves us feeling stuck or disconnected. If you have found yourself reading this, perhaps you’re tired of feeling “stagnant” or you feel ready to wrestle with the issues bringing you to therapy. I work to provide a space where my clients feel safe to shift from shame to curiosity and compassion in order to re-connect with self, others, and the world around them.

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.

You've never really felt like you are enough. Sure, you've been successful in school, at work, and well, at life... for the most part (at least it looks that way to other people). But deep down, it has always felt like there is something missing... something wrong - and you wonder if maybe there's actually just something wrong with you. You push your feelings down. You stretch yourself too thin, work too hard, and just can't say "no." You worry about what other people think of you and hope that you're enough for them. You wish it could stop - that you could feel good enough to have happiness and love and actually feel worthy of it.

My personal philosophy of healing is not standardized. Growth comes from a place of vulnerability and courage to face difficult truths and clients will learn and grow through a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship. Acceptance of all parts of ourselves is fundamental in therapy and I believe change requires a willingness to transfer negative energy out in order to make room for our ideal selves. The therapeutic process will provide a space for clients to discover their needs and the best way to meet them. My hope is that you gain a difference in perspective that serves you and provides a basis for unconditional acceptance.

I focus on building a safe space for my clients. I enjoy working with clients who are open to the idea of therapy, but may not fully understand therapy or have had negative experiences with therapists in the past. My goal is ultimately to help my unique clients find the individualized approach that works best for them.

Sometimes life can throw us a major curve; sometimes a lot of smaller curve balls can hit us all at once. Sometimes the faith of our childhood is no longer serving us well, and causing us more conflict and trauma than comfort. Sometimes painful memories can resurface and dominate our lives. Many times we feel we’re experiencing these things alone, when, in fact, most of us go through them. Sometimes it’s helpful to have someone to talk with and help us gain needed perspective. I specialize in helping folks integrate these and other issues into a more coherent, whole outlook.

My life journey has taken twists, turns, and various paths over the years. Deeper healing, expansion, and growth came from a focus on the outside to the inner self. It evolved through studies to become a therapist, my own personal therapy, the power of meditation, connection to spirituality, exploring, and a tribe of loving souls that guided me along the way. It is my intention to assist others in their personal journey of discovery, healing and purposeful living.

Oftentimes, it's helpful to be reminded that emotional peace and happiness are possible. Your interest in counseling suggests that you're ready to start the journey to achieving and sustaining emotional wellness. Whether you're seeking traditional "talk therapy" or if you're open to allowing nature to aide in the therapeutic process with "walk + talk therapy"---or if you're somewhere in between, let's partner to create a self-care plan that's tailored to address your specific needs and goals.

You may be wondering if you would benefit from outside help navigating life’s challenges. Maybe you struggle to get through the day without getting stuck in a cycle of worry, snapping at your loved ones, or feeling weighed down by a sense of sadness. There may be a clear transition or challenge that you’re facing, like trouble growing your family or a new medical diagnosis. Or, perhaps you’re struggling with something more chronic like navigating the demands of being a working parent. Whatever the source of your stress, your experience is valid, and you deserve and have the capacity to feel better.

Hello! My specialties are treating anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. I have over 9 years of experience in treating people of diverse demographics. I am passionate about helping my clients discover their strengths and empowering them to function in their truest and best selves. I find it an honor to be trusted with my client’s stories; stories that are often begging to be heard, understood, and touched with compassion.

Have you acknowledged that you have a problem and are now seeking help? When you talk to family or friends, do you feel like you are not being heard? I believe that the first step in the healing process for any issue is to be "heard" and have someone to listen to you. I provide a safe place for individuals, families, parents, and couples to speak and begin the healing process. My goal is to provide a warm, nurturing, accepting environment that meets the client where they are at.

There is no substitute for compassion in the counseling relationship. I believe in a whole-person approach. This means that everything is relevant: family of origin, unwanted life events, current relationships, physical health and well being, and everyday coping challenges. I assist my clients with life transitions, grief, early childhood trauma, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, chronic pain, relationship challenges, and spiritual issues. I endorse and have expertise in mindfulness-based practices and 12+ years of Hospice experience. Strengths: trusting relationships with my clients.

I don't believe in the one size fits all treatment plan. I believe with challenge comes change. Facing the worst experiences of our lives or the worst parts of ourselves can seem almost impossible or unbearable. You don't have to carry the burden of your traumas. I believe in empowering my clients. We will work to together to create goals to become the best version of yourself. My personality is very laid back and I curse when I am passionate but it is always with love. I will always be honest and call you out when needed but I will also support you and cheer you on when your goals and show up for yourself.

Overall, I work to establish strong and safe connections with my clients in order to assist them in deep healing work. While my approach is eclectic, I tend to pull ideas from somatic psychology while working from a humanistic, attachment-focused perspective. I work best with clients who want to explore how their patterns began and are commited to feeling better. I have training in Somatic Experiencing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy; as well as, experience working in residential and out-patient Eating Disorder Treatment.
