I am a licensed therapist in the state of Tennesse and I have experience working with adults and adolescents struggling with addiction and also with children and adolescents struggling with emotional and behavioral difficulties. Throughout these experiences, I have learned that trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and many more are common throughout all age groups. It’s common to walk through life and be too busy to think about and focus on yourself. Sometimes other life events can take priority over taking care of ourselves. I have found my passion to be working alongside individuals from all walks of life to overcome obstacles in their lives and strive to provide a safe environment to allow healing and growth. I encourage individuals to take the first step in taking care of themselves and enhancing their life needs and satisfaction. Sometimes, we don’t know where to start to make improvements in our lives or what steps to take to make a change, I believe that counseling is the first step in taking control of your life and to fulfilling your true self.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor licensed in Tennessee with over 15 years of experience working in clinical practice. I’ve worked in various settings including community health clinics, children’s advocacy centers, non-profit counseling centers, and addiction and recovery centers. I’ve worked with a wide variety of ages and those who have experienced a wide range of symptoms and concerns including; depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, stages of life changes, career challenges, OCD, ADHD, addiction and recovery. I have also worked with many individuals who’ve suffered from traumatic events, abuse, and neglect. I feel that my therapeutic approach is much more of a guiding force than giving my clients specific directives. Ever heard the saying, “You can lead a horse to water…” Well my approach to therapy is very much the same. I don’t give you the answers or tell you what to do. Instead, my sessions are much more about question-answers in order to help you figure out the problem, and guide you to the right path toward healing and growth. No one knows you better than you, so who am I to come in and tell you what to do? However, sometimes we are so distracted with clutter, pain, and hurt that we are unable to see the problem, let alone find a path through the suffering to healing and growth. That’s where I come in. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and do not believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I look forward to working with you!
