Therapists in Clarksville, TN

You're not crazy, you're just carrying trauma. This is something you need to understand. You've been through the bad stuff, and think you've moved on from it, but why is your mind racing all of the time and you feel mentally drained by daily life? Do you feel disconnected emotionally and can't trust others? The truth is, the trauma you have experienced in the past is impacting your present whether you know it or not. The anger, sadness, and overwhelm is still there even though you survived it. There is life after trauma and healing is real. This is where I come in. I can help you gain your voice and strengthen your self-compassion.

Are you and your partner looking to enhance your relationship satisfaction or identify areas for improvement? Perhaps your relationship is facing new challenges, and you're seeking support.

Whether you're experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship problems, one thing is probably true: you just want to be happier and feel better. Wouldn't it feel amazing to finally connect with someone who can understand you and help you achieve that?

Events in our lives can leave us feeling overwhelmed and lost. As my people say, “all errors are amendable” Do you feel depressed and anxious regarding your life or relationships? I am here to listen and help you get on track using a collaborative approach. Together, we can help you become the person you desire to be. My. Originating from a diverse culture, I bring a wealth of familiarity with various ethnicities, religious backgrounds, and sexual orientations that allows me to be open to seeing things from multiple perspectives. I use a variety of counseling approaches to tailor the approach to fit your needs.

Life can be complicated, but together we can find ways to navigate it. Every client is unique, and my aim is to support clients through unconditional positive regard. I have a passion for analyzing concerns and creating ways to help clients combat concerns and living healthier lives.

It takes courage to ask for help and if you're here, you've taken the first step. If you're ready to make a change, I am here to walk with you on that journey.

As a military spouse, I understand the unique challenges faced by service members and their families. Together we can understand and work through these challenges to improve your quality of life.

I look for solutions. Sometimes the solution is a listening ear and processing difficult emotions or experiences. I also look for very practical solutions for couples such as communication techniques, division of household/work/and parenting tasks, and the big issues in relationships...money, sex, and in-laws or ex's. With individuals suffering with depression or anxiety I take a holistic approach; mind, body and spirit. Without simple changes in our bodies such as relaxation, exercise, and sleep our mind cannot connect. When we take care of the whole person there is a synergistic effect and the results are much greater.

Whether you are responding to grief, depression, stress, trauma, or heartbreak, therapy can benefit you. My perception of psychotherapy is a journey of self-discovery requiring a collaborative effort between therapist and client. From my experience, it is important to curate a nonjudgmental safe space for clients to process and communicate their most vulnerable experiences and life journey thus far. I strive to meet clients ‘where they are’ in terms of their present situation and circumstances, and help clients move past their barriers and rediscover their purpose.

My ideal client is an individual who may be having difficulty with bio-psycho-social-spiritual behavior changes. These difficulties include but are not limited to the following: difficulty coping with a traumatic event, poor anger management, school or social issue behavior problems, boundaries issues, and sibling rivalry. My ideal client will be motivated in finding self-sustaining coping strategies and insight into the reasoning behind the challenges they face.

In working with adults, I want to help you break through the barriers of your trauma experience that have hindered you in life. Do you desire to push past the pain, and find your healing?
