Therapists in Murfreesboro, TN

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you find it difficult to say "no" or set boundaries with others? Do you wonder if life should feel more manageable? More joyful? Maybe you can't quite put your finger on it, but you know something is "off". Today, more than ever before, people are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and uncertain about their life and relationships. Pushing away your emotional pain can lead to long-term issues for you mind and body. It doesn't have to be this way.

Life can sometimes get messy, and while they are normal experiences, anxiety, depression, past trauma, family and relationship conflict, and various other factors can rob us of our ability to find peace in the here-and-now. We often get stuck in patterns rooted in past experiences that continue to show up in the present in unhelpful ways. Without the right tools and supports, it can feel as if we do not have the ability to find meaning in the mess or become unstuck in our patterns that are holding us back from living emotionally healthy lives. It is so common to hold these burdens alone in silence to avoid judgment.

I work with clients from all walks of life. My prefered method of therapy is to get at the root cause of an issue and to provide symptom managment to decrease the impact of mental health issues for my clients.

Sometimes clients can feel stuck in “survival mode”, which can keep them from fully engaging in their lives. I am passionate about empowering my clients to see they have options in their lives and ensure they are able to regain a sense of self. I believe such empowerment allows clients to create better connections with others and have compassion for themselves. It can be exhausting to feel like you have to be “fine” all the time, especially during a difficult season of life. I offer a safe space for you to come in and heal.

Hey! I'm Christina. I'm proud of you for taking this step toward seeking counseling. It's very hard to be vulnerable, especially in today's world. Counseling is a place to be seen, known, and feel safe. A place where we can talk through all of the hard and difficult things in your life and work towards healing. A place to figure out what's going well and how to build on those strengths.

In my personal and professional life, I have found one thing to be true: Life can be hard. I have a passion for supporting others in resolving pain and reclaiming fullness in life.

I see men and women whose lives have spiraled out of control become desperate for help. I see brokenhearted adults and children as they learn to cope with an unstable world. My heart is to heal the broken hearted and give hope where hope was once lost.

My ideal client would have a healthy dose of honestness, openness, and willingness. I don't expect for my clients to have specific goals or outcomes in the beginning, but an awareness that they want something to be different. Some of the issues I've worked with extensively over the years have been related to recovery from addiction, helping loved one's of an addict, co-dependency, trauma, and navigating an individual's emotions and how to understand and express them in a healthier way. It's about breaking away from insanity and moving toward serenity.

At work, you’re a rock star! You can handle anything that comes your way. Whenever there’s a problem, you’re the one who fixes it. It’s your show and you’re killing it. So why do you feel so unfulfilled? On paper, you’re successful – making your family proud. But inside, something is still missing. A longing emptiness sits deep in the pit of your stomach. You’ve always worked so hard to pursue goals “at any cost,” but you’ve begun to realize that the cost was your well-being. All of your relationships seem to be out of obligation. You never have any time to care for yourself. Unless something changes, things will only get worse...

I enjoy working with people. At times we all think about a past mistake, a missed opportunity, or an undesirable choice. But if you are constantly looking back with a nagging and paralyzing sense of regret, you may not be able to see or enjoy what is good about your life today. If you are looking in the rearview mirror of life, you are not living in the present, and you may have given up on the future. If you have experienced trauma and feel stuck, whether it occurred recently or a long time ago, there is a way forward although you may not see the steps through which to change your life for the better.

Do you feel overwhelmed by life? Have you had disappointments and things in your life that did not go as planned? Have you found yourself in a divorce and it feels like your world is falling apart?

I love working with clients to help them heal from past wounds, teaching them skillsets that will help them grow and create new pathways in their brain. My goal is to be your guide in your healing journey.
