Therapists in Nashville, TN
Are you constantly overthinking and struggle to live in the present? Do you find yourself getting caught in a spiral of self-criticism that leaves you feeling unmotivated to do the things you really want to do with your life? How very human of you! As a therapist specializing in the treatment of anxiety, depression, and trauma-related stress, I enjoy showing clients that they are in charge of their lives (despite what their fear tells them). Using a self-compassion and strengths-based lens, I offer clients the permission to accept themselves and start living the life they deserve to live.

Are you a couple or an individual feeling lost, as if something is off, but you can't quite put your finger on it? Perhaps you feel trapped in repetitive cycles, yet longing to break free from old patterns that no longer serve you. Maybe you've done therapy before and feel like you've gathered insight, but intellectualizing isn't getting you where you want to be.

My clients are often those struggling with anxiety, self-worth, and life transitions/adjustments. I also have particular specialities and experience with grief, substance addictions or those who are the loved one of a person with addictions, and trauma. When you read the word "trauma" it doesn't have to mean only abuse, car accidents, etc. There are various stressful life experiences that register as trauma, such as divorce, neglect/abandonment, health related issues and diagnoses, miscarriages, and many more. All that is needed from you is a desire to be present in the counseling space. The rest we walk through together.

Sometimes, your teen has experienced a traumatic event or is just having difficulty navigating life’s changes, such as divorce; the death of a family member; adoption; or adjusting to school, friends, and their self-identity. Communicating how they feel, especially to their parents, is not a teen’s strong point. As a result, both the teen and parents become frustrated. Adolescence is a significant life transition. Without some guidance (or interpreter), the process becomes a rocky road for all involved.

My passion involves working with child and adolescent clients as well as young adult women to navigate a wide range of life’s challenges. Within my widespread background working in ABA Therapy, Foster Care, and now as a School Counselor I’ve gained a strong framework for working with clients of multiple backgrounds. I strive to make each client feel valued and accepted regardless of religious, racial, gender identity, or socioeconomic background.

Life is a gift that brings many joyful opportunities AND it also brings times of pain, suffering and added pressure. Perhaps you've found it harder to enjoy the blessings of life lately because of a hard transition, a difficult relationship or a traumatic event. Perhaps you've found yourself using destructive habits to cope with the stress such as dysfunctional eating, excessive alcohol use, perfectionism or isolation. Perhaps you're very hard on yourself and have a very loud inner critic in your head, and part of the struggle is negative body image. And perhaps you also want support from a spiritual perspective.

Arriving at the place of wholeness oftentimes is a journey. That path has “detours” and “construction” blocks along the way. Some of us barrel through those and some of us turn around. Either direction leaves us in a place where we need healing. We all have the strength to conquer our adversities and I want to partner with you.

Because we live in a broken world, we all experience trauma on some level (even if it doesn't "look" like trauma). If trauma has taken root, it residually shows up in our relationships with ourselves and others, dictates our perceptions & behaviors, and can even trap us into our own self-sustained mental prison. The question is not "what's wrong with you?", but instead "what happened to you?" I would be honored to hear your story & provide a safe space for you to unpack with no judgement. I am well-versed in Narrative Therapy, taking the stance that you are the expert on yourself.

I love working with clients that are actively on the path of healing. I have extensive experience working with addiction (both process and substance) and trauma and welcome sober and newly sober people to step in to a process with me. I am an 'out of the box' therapist and work best with those that are open to doing their therapeutic work 'beyond the talking'. In addition to recovery I love to help people identify ways in which to be more fully who they know inside that they are - even if they don't have the fully formed picture of what that is yet!
