Christian Counseling Therapists in Chattanooga, TN

​Although I am a sole practitioner, I refer to my counseling practice as “our practice.” I do this because the time you spend with me belongs to you. We will work together to help you ​achieve success through the goals that we will set at the beginning of our time together. ​ I want to join my clients on their life journey and help them better understand how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are connected. My training as a therapist is empirically based and I am also a Christian and my faith influences my work with clients.

Are you struggling with addiction or navigating the trials of your life? Are you trying to find balance in your life again or for the first time? I love working with clients who are motivated for change and are willing to put in the hard work and helping clients solve puzzles and find what they need and want in their lives. I also welcome any partners or family members of those struggling with addictions as it can be a difficult path through that trauma. I find fulfillment working with those who find recovery from addiction and partners and family members who have been betrayed and hurt by the addiction of someone they love.

With nearly 20 years of hospital experience as an RN, I seek to integrate my care and knowledge of the clinical setting within my counseling practice. I am an LPC-MHSP(temp), certified in Perinatal Mental Health (PSI), and completed Resolve Through Sharing bereavement training. I am also endorsed by AIMHiTN as an Infant/Early Childhood Family Associate. I enjoy working with adults facing a wide range of issues and employ a variety of therapy modalities tailored to the individual needs of clients. I seek to create a safe and honest space for individuals and couples in their journey toward healing.

It takes such courage to open ourselves to the possibility of healing when we have been hurt. But the fullness of life that grows out of engaging in the healing process is something I continue to experience personally in my own life and professionally with my clients. While we receive our deepest wounds in relationships, it is in relationships that we can also experience the deepest healing. Some of the bravest people I have ever met are the individuals I sit with in the counseling office, and I commend you for starting the process by looking for a counselor.

Navigating life stressors can be overwhelming. Feelings of anxiety, depression, grief and loss, in addition to traumatic life experiences can feel debilitating.
