Therapists Beginning With A in Tennessee
I want my clients to thrive and be the best version of themselves but sometimes life gets in the way. I draw on my professional skills and personal experiences to make a positive impact in my client’s lives. I work with adults of all ages and stages, beliefs and orientations. Flexibility is important to me as a therapist so I customize my approach to best suit my client’s unique needs—meeting each person where they are at and empowering them in their healing journey.

Individuals see me when their minds, heart, and body don't align. You know you're amazing, yet, beat yourself up or feel a sinking sensation when you show up for yourself. Maybe you experience difficulty in relationships or with life dreams and desires. Maybe you'd like to feel more confident or connected, trust yourself, or explore what drives certain behaviors. Your internal voice knows something isn't right, but you can't put your finger on it, or there are too many loose ends tangled together, and you could use some help sorting out what is yours and what isn't.

My journey has taken me down many roads. I have a few years of experience helping individuals, couples and families in Hawaii in the areas of mental health and addictions. In my years as a clinician I've worked with both adults and children struggling with a diversity of issues, some of which include substance abuse, relationship issues, parenting issues, depression, and anxiety. I have learned how to adjust my approach to best suit the needs of my clients, regardless of age or background.

My ideal client wants to be their whole self in therapy and feel free to cry, laugh, curse, or even quote TikTok in sessions. I am typically sought out by progressive clients in need of a therapist who values authenticity, cultural humility, and social justice. My clients usually have multiple historically exploited identities (LGBTQ+, POC, women, etc.) and are often fellow healers, helpers, teachers, students, and artists. I frequently work with non-monogamous clients and neuro-divergent clients due to my knowledge and lived experience. I enjoy helping make evidence based approaches more accessible to a diverse range of clients.

Therapy is a place to slow down, explore who you are, get unstuck, and engage in the important work of improving your relationships with yourself and others. I am genuinely and deeply interested in you- what experiences have shaped you, how you view the world, yourself and those around you. You and I will explore what is working well for you and what isn't, and will work together to move you toward a life of greater peace, congruency, connection and authenticity. My goal as a therapist is to create a space where you feel safe and fully seen for who have been and who you are today, and who you can be in the future.

Do you want to make changes, but feel unsure where to begin? Maybe you're in a period of transition and struggling to feel grounded. These are situations we all experience throughout life. They're part of being human, but that doesn't make them any easier to face. We all deserve to live meaningful, purposeful, and authentic lives. Often it takes a collaborative effort to get to that place, and that's where I believe I can help. I work with clients to support them in sharing their stories, identifying values and making changes.

Clients I see are typically wrestling with experiences that have impacted the way they view themselves, relationships, and the world around them. These experiences often leave us feeling wounded, unable to reconnect with ourselves or others. If this resonates with you, we might be a good fit for each other. As a wounded healer myself I seek to support you on your road to healing in a way that honors your unique set of values, beliefs, and cultural identity. I strive to take the time to get to know you, helping you to feel seen, heard, and understood. Who you want to be is possible. Your story, as it is, doesn't have to define you.
