Attachment-based Therapists in Chattanooga, TN
Whoever said “Time heals all wounds” clearly never experienced trauma. When you face something so painful that it feels like it leaves a permanent mark on you, time doesn’t just make that go away. The good news is, healing is possible. You don’t have to suffer like this forever. As a mental health therapist, I work with people who have experienced deep hurt from other people. Maybe it was a parent who never seemed to have time for you. A spouse who belittled you. That family member who violated you. Or the friend who abandoned you.

Wanting to feel confident, content, and connected? It can feel so challenging and helpless when faced with anxiety, stress, and internal negative thoughts. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, or recovering from people-pleasing or co-dependent relationships, I would love to collaborate with you towards healing. Often our negative thoughts and beliefs about ourselves impact our relationships. If this describes your story and you are seeking a safe place to process, desire to be heard, and are willing to learn tools and skills to make change you're in the right place.

For over twenty years, I've been practicing psychotherapy in both outpatient and inpatient settings. I began my career working with complex psychiatric cases. I have since evolved my practice to include a focus on wellness and prevention. I work with individuals, couples, and families, utilizing evidence-based treatment techniques that are tailored to each person's unique needs.

Being vulnerable is brave. Behind all the difficult feelings you face. The more you stand in the discomfort the more your edges soften and you begin to embrace it all and allow yourself to be seen— just as you are. I am here to listen to your story and provide prospective as you navigate and uncover the process of healing. I am passionate about working with people to recover from abusive or complex relationships, emotion regulation, and communication issues.

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.

As humans, we innately desire to be connected to and understood by others. For some, connection feels terrifying, confusing, and unsafe. I can help you build and foster a life with fulfilling relationships, with others & with yourself. My goal is to help you access bravery & empowerment so that your whole, authentic self drives your actions instead of fear. Stop obsessing, people pleasing, & stewing in resentment. Heal the root of feeling misunderstood, unloveable, and out of place. Learn to engage in honest conversations rather than only speaking your truth when you're alone. Create powerful community and deep meaning in your life.

I have experience as a therapist in outpatient mental health clinics, inpatient psychiatric hospitals, cancer treatment facilities, substance abuse treatment centers and schools. With 10 years of serving both individuals and family systems, I have addressed a vast array of symptoms related to mental health concerns. I tend to focus on the whole body and its connections. I understand counseling as growth, much in the same way a tree grows. In counseling we honor our roots, noting where we came from while stretching our branches high and reaching for what we wish to become.

ALL of us have experienced past traumatic events (to a greater or lesser degree) that may be impacting how we think, feel and act, presently. I’ve learned from my clients and through my own personal experience that talk-therapy is just not enough! In obtaining needed certifications, I’m confident I’m utilizing the most effective, evidence-based therapeutic modalities to help clients, holistically, heal their brains, minds and bodies. By removing the roots of a client's anxiety/depression, I’ve seen tremendous breakthroughs with empowering clients to live the life they’ve always wanted; one filled with meaning, happiness and peace.

During our lifetime, we humans go through many life transitions. Helping women, children, and teens succeed through life's many demands is my focus and passion. Working with women who are experiencing a life transition is one of my primary strengths. The second area of focus within my practice is working with parents and individuals who are neurodivergent or who have a child who is neurodivergent. Being a parent of a neurodivergent child myself I enjoy connecting and helping parents and individuals as they navigate this oftentimes difficult journey.
