I am licensed in Tennessee as a Clinical Health Psychologist with 26 years of professional work experience as a direct care clinician and healthcare leader. I enjoy helping my clients improve their experience with stress, anxiety, sleep disorders, challenges with energy or motivation, gaining confidence, and reaching goals that align with your Mission, Aspirations, and Purpose. I also offer executive coaching, and professional coaching to optimize your efficiency while living a value driven life, and reducing compassion fatigue and exhaustion that comes from a busy lifestyle, which also includes my love of serving our military and police, fire, and EMS workers as the impact of trauma and burnout can build significant physical and mental health challenges. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique goals and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey and look forward to connecting.
