Therapy isn’t meant to be scary, even though scary things may be confronted. Stepping into a room to vulnerably share your life story, all the way from moments that have felt like valleys to mountain top views, takes an exceeding amount of resiliency and strength. By unlocking what our minds and bodies have been through and telling us, in a safe space, healing and freedom are found to live a more full and healthy life as the most authentic you.

My clinical focus is working with women between the ages of 18-35 (flexible) that are growing through such transformative and transitional years of life that are ready to take the next steps to grow through their stories. By taking a holistic approach and plunging into self-discovery and learning to identify and take care of our needs, we can build and transform our mental, emotional, spiritual and physical health and well-being. In turn, we can enhance all other facets of our lives, including our relationships, careers, and all that comes our way because we have the skills and abilities to be mindful and cope.

My journey of work through the mental health field has guided me to various opportunities throughout the years. I founded and direct a non-profit that works with children with different abilities and their families that utilizes equine, art, theatre, and music therapies and activities. I have experience as a Behavior Therapist for children on the spectrum, have worked at a psychiatric rehabilitation home for adults recovering from severe mental illness, and have volunteered my skills in numerous health settings, on top of providing individual therapy for a variety of ages in the Nashville area.

I incorporate multiple treatment modalities into my practice to enhance clients’ individual experiences. I believe that every individual has the strength within themselves to overcome any life challenge and deserves a helping hand to encourage and support them along the way on their path to growth and self-discovery.

Your story deserves to be heard, and you deserve to grow from your story. If you are ready to take the next steps in your story together, please reach out by phone or email.
