We all embark on the journey of life at the same starting point. We travel down the road before us, trying to carve out a path that will lead us to the kind of life that will bring us joy. However, there are times when that path leads us off the course of happiness and fulfillment, and into the unexpected. I enjoy working with individuals with traits and tendencies of attachment that manifests by way of questioning self-worth, feeling unworthy of love, fear that healthy relationships cannot exist, obsession with loss and difficulty moving forward, taking on others feelings and beliefs as your own, guilt/shame.

The ideal client that would be helped by my services is the person that recognizes that they will no longer accept the reality of defeat, emptiness, hopelessness, pessimism, distrust, depression, or guilt. I use an eclectic approach to therapy intentionally designed to provide the most optimal outcome in those areas of difficulty. I have seen tremendous growth in clients struggling in the areas of grief, depression, anxiety, and borderline disorders. Allow me the opportunity to walk you through the process of revelation and triumph.

I view counseling as a vital practice that involves connection, commitment, and hope for change. I’m able to recognize the courage it takes for anyone to ask for help, and I want to recognize the strength it takes to chose to ask for what you need. I focus on approaching each therapeutic relationship with understanding to begin building trust and open communication. My desire is to be able to provide a safe place for anyone to feel heard and work together to allow for growth.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, in a “funk,” lonely, or out-of-sorts? Do you feel you have to put on a face to show that you have it all together? Do you feel sadness or anxiety from past experiences or current events? Maybe it's hard even to pinpoint. It can be hard to ask for help, but coming here is a significant first step toward living a fuller, happier life. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a space where you can feel understood, supported, and empowered. I truly believe that effective therapy is grounded in a genuine and collaborative relationship between the client and therapist.

Think you’ll never recover from your trauma? Feel exhausted and constantly triggered? Painful or tragic experiences can get stuck on replay in our heads. After something like that (childhood/adult abuse, fire, flood, tornado grief, etc) we change the way we see the other people, the world in general but especially how we see ourselves. It all gets twisted. And there are ways to untwist the impact of trauma. I am sometimes away with American Red Cross volunteering in Disaster Mental Health.

As one of a few psychotherapists in Memphis who is also AASECT Certified as a sex therapist, I treat a full range of sexual, relationship and intimacy issues. Sex is one of the deepest and most powerful experiences we have, yet it can also cause distress and embarrassment when it does not go smoothly. Compounding the problem, many have been socialized to feel uncomfortable with sex or haven't received accurate sexual health information. Many people struggle in silence with sexual dysfunction and others have erotic interests that might be considered unusual by some- any of the above can result in tremendous amounts of shame.
