Adoption Therapists in Nashville, TN
Life stressors and trauma can impact our lives in unexpected ways and reaching out for support takes courage. I value collaborating with individuals to curate space for their healing journey. As a trauma therapist, I am committed to establishing an environment where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I practice from a trauma informed, relational, and anti-oppressive perspective and believe that each person's journey is unique and deserving of respect. My approach is rooted in an appreciation for the diverse backgrounds and identities that each person brings to the therapeutic relationship.

When I think about life and growth, lyrics from a Grateful Dead song feel relevant: "Sometimes the light's all shining on me, other times I can barely see. Lately, it occurs to me, what a long, strange trip it's been." This trip of life we're on can often be overwhelming, uncertain, full of highs and lows, and difficult transitions. Therapy can be a valuable support system to help process these wide-ranging experiences and their impacts while navigating how to cope so that we can cultivate full, meaningful lives.

I believe what is most effective in therapy is finding someone who makes you feel truly seen and heard. Finding one's voice is challenging enough, and going unheard or misunderstood can be incredibly lonely and can alter our perceptions of our lives, our futures, and ourselves. I enjoy supporting others in finding their voice and rediscovering who they are through each chapter they encounter in their lives. The therapy journey can be long and on-going but is worth every step of effort to reach the level of healing and confidence we all deserve.
