Cigna and Evernorth Therapists in Nashville, TN

In my role as a therapist, I have dedicated myself to providing support and guidance to motivated individuals navigating the complexities of anxiety, depression, life transitions, stressors, relationship challenges, and self-esteem issues. Specializing in working with children, teenagers, and young adults, I am committed to fostering a safe and empathetic space where clients can explore their emotions and develop coping strategies. I have experience working with individuals, families, and couples.

I am so glad you have taken this step to start therapy! The most important relationship we will ever have is the one we have with ourselves. You deserve to invest in increasing your self-understanding and self-love. My hope is that through our work together, you will be better able to embrace who you are find healing, and experience personal growth.

My heart is set on helping professionals like you—those who are managing the pressures and complexities of ambitious careers. Whether it’s through individual therapy or working with couples, I’m here to support your journey towards a healthier, more balanced life. I primarily work with adults and couples, guiding them through challenges like complex family dynamics, boundary setting, anxiety, depression, religious trauma, and ADHD. My foundational belief is that we're all doing the best we can with what we have. As a partner in your journey, I bring an array of tools and skills, hoping to make your path a little easier to navigate.

I accept Cigna and Aetna insurances. I offer a sliding scale fee ranging as low as $60. I wish to challenge certain stereotypes around mental health and invite anyone, regardless of their race and/or gender to reach out for psychological services if needed. I work with clients demonstrating a range of mental health concerns, including: anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, mood and personality disorders, life transitions and stress. My preference of clients is not limited to their race, gender, religion, or sexual orientation, but their devotion to their own mental well being.

Do you feel like you have tried other methods of healing or therapy to no avail? Are you a young adult, mom, or a woman dealing with trauma, pregnancy, infertility, or difficult life transitions? Do you feel like your past has shaped certain aspects of you that you don’t want to continue to carry forward anymore? I encourage you to reach out, and explore through a free consultation how EMDR, and a holistic approach to healing may help to release you from old patterns no longer serving your mind and body. EMDR can help desensitize emotional reactions and we can then work together to create new healthier patterns.

We strive to build relationships that heal. Learn how to feel more connected to yourself, others and the world around you. Therapy provides all the elements of intimacy: honest communication, vulnerability and trust. Good therapy is challenging yet warm, providing both structure and empathy for your unique experience. We are a collective of therapists with a wide range of specialties. Our intake professionals will help connect you with the right therapist for your needs. We make appointments easy, offering evenings and weekends and flexibility for creative professionals who can't make the same time each week.

Treatment for psychological disorders is better than ever. I specialize in offering new, evidence-based treatment options for OCD and related/co-occuring conditions that are more gentle and affirming than traditional approaches. How you experience OCD can be influenced by ADHD, Autism, racism, LGBTQ+ identity, trauma history, substance use and other contextual and identity factors. I'm here to listen with humility and acceptance (no thoughts are too shameful or taboo), make a thoughtful diagnosis, and gently guide you through science-backed treatment. Best of all, we can do it all from the comfort of home via videoconferencing.

I primarily see men and women who are dealing with problems relating to anxiety and/or depression. Many of the people I treat are dealing with overwhelming life issues. During therapy we process these issues and practice strategies designed to give you coping skills you can use for your current and future situations. I am trained to provide relief on a wide variety of pressures, including, but not limited to anger and communication difficulties, grief and loss, history of trauma, adult recovery from child abuse, divorce, change of life issues, relationship conflict and men's and women's issues.

Please hit send email to get in touch faster than phone. No matter if this is your first time coming for therapy or your 15th time to try again. Life happens. Experiences are different for each individual and these experiences can have a significant impact in our daily lives. Your mental health matters and I'm here for it. I also have years of experience helping children/adolescents explore more about themselves that can lead to healthier family interactions, behavioral goals, academics, and social skills.

"The best way to predict the future is to create it." That statement is at the heart of therapy. So often we are defined by what has happened to us and we get stuck living in a space filled with regret, heartache and frustration. You don't have to live in that space. Your current search for a therapist is a wonderfully bold and courageous step toward creating your future. The role of a therapist is to help you unlock your innate ability to heal, forgive, grow and prosper in the life you wish to build.

Instead of being taught how to cope skillfully with painful experiences and feelings, many of us are taught to numb, hide, or ignore them. This often intensifies the suffering, and also is often the only thing we know. I provide a safe space where clients can express, process, and learn about their thoughts, feelings, and emotions without judgment. I help clients to develop more workable coping skills and habits so that they can move toward their goals. If "being positive" hasn't worked for you, you may be in the right place.

Welcome! I am so proud of you for taking a huge step in the right direction for you and your mental health. I am passionate about meeting people where they are because you are the expert of your life. I believe that building upon strengths is one of the most significant foundations in mental health. I am here to help you navigate life the way you choose. Everyone deserves to live a happy, stress-free life. There is no pressure in therapy, you decide the pace.

I help individuals who may feel disconnected from their true selves, showing up as depression, anxiety, or a feeling of being unfulfilled. I help clients come back home to themselves, to their own dreams for their lives, to their own values, to their own feelings, and to their most aligned path for their relationships, careers, physical health, and joy. Clients usually experience very quick transformations with this work and express a feeling of internal wholeness and peace, as well as clarity about their way forward. One of the most common words clients use with this work is "life-changing"!

I have been a licensed counselor for over fifteen years and I have been in the helping profession for nearly thirty-five years. Much of my experience is working with people who have experienced trauma, especially within relationships. I work best with individuals who are dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, and issues of empowerment. I feel you are the expert concerning your life. Maybe you just need some help exploring that. My style is not to give advice, but rather to provide a safe environment and relationship where you can feel free to grow and transform.

In this life there is always something that makes us change. Human nature says that it is love or the loss of something or someone. If you think you need help to achieve your goals or make the necessary changes to be successful, you have to give yourself a chance. During therapy you have the necessary space to talk about the different barriers that are a challenge for you. I work with different people who are going through different personal situations, having challenges with their families, or struggling in their marriage.

Do you find yourself overthinking situations or just plain stuck because you are trying to get it right? Do you feel anxious because you are overthinking about life in general? Maybe there are other emotions to sort through? Sometimes feelings of sadness or your emotions get in the way. The words “Mental Health" or "Therapy" can be intimidating, daunting, or even stigmatizing. Actually, these terms are an indication that you are interested in becoming the best version of yourself and improving your quality of life.

Does it sometimes feel like you’re stuck in the darkness and it’s hard to see where to go next? Do you want to increase a sense of lightness and connectedness in your life and relationships? If so, therapy can be a safe harbor from which to slow down and cast a light in your internal life and experiences and, within yourself, find ways to live a more fulfilling life. I have helped individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, substance use, life transitions and relational issues live life more fully after difficult experiences. I believe in each person's capacity to find the way to a brighter and more meaningful life.

My approach is centered around providing comprehensive, purposeful, and effective treatment tailored to the needs of women navigating a spectrum of difficult situations. I utilize evidence-based techniques, focusing on delivering tangible results. My approach is to provide a nonjudgmental and empathetic environment to establish connection and safety with each individual client. I prioritize gaining profound insights into my clients' perspectives, utilizing validation techniques to ensure my clients’ experiences are acknowledged and understood.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or alone in life’s challenges? Together, we can navigate life’s challenges in a safe, non-judgmental space. I am passionate about a collaborative therapy process, that is built on an empathetic and trusting therapeutic relationship. I strive to help my clients discover their strengths while also working to develop new coping skills.
