Emotionally Focused Therapists in Cottontown, TN

I have extensive experience working with adults and adolescents, (age 14 and up) dealing with anxiety, depression, anger issues, family conflict and difficult life transitions. I also have extensive experience helping individuals work through past trauma and PTSD symptoms.

I enjoy working with children, teens, and their families to achieve their goals through supporting healthier and happier relationships. Clients often tell me that our work has helped them to sort through their thoughts and feelings to gain clarity, to grow, to learn about themselves, to develop confidence, and to feel empowered to make important decisions. I employ a flexible approach tailored to the needs of each client. I use an eclectic approach to therapy, guided by the needs of the client. When trust is established, change happens.

I work with clients, male and female, age 12 and older. The individuals and couples who come to see me are struggling with issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship conflicts, behavioral issues, or the need for personal growth and development. Besides my education, training, and continued desire to learn as a therapist, I bring my own life experiences that enrich what I have to offer my clients.

Saturday Morning Appointments Available! Currently Accepting New Clients! My ideal client is someone who is searching for change and looking to build a life worth living! I believe that beauty can come from ashes, and no matter what your past may hold, it does not have to define your future possibilities.

I currently have a few spots open! You are welcome to give me a call for a free phone consultation! Struggles are so hard to get past and I find it an honor to walk through them with my clients. I have a passion to work alongside those struggling with their marriage, or any relationships and helping people who are involved in toxic relationships. Included in my passions are working with individuals who have gone through trauma, or who struggle with anxiety, depression or self-worth. I have been married for 30+ years and have adult children who are married, so I can also relate to many different aspects of life.

Let me ask you a few questions! Lately, have you been feeling overwhelmed by life's obstacles? Have you experienced feelings of anxiety, depression, or anger that you just can't quite manage? Do you desire peace, joy, and the ability to live life to the fullest, regardless of inevitable obstacles or unresolved trauma? We each have strengths and skills to carry us through, and it is my passion to help each client through that process. Sometimes life throws things at us that leave us shaken and confused, but even then, we can and will persevere. I am incredibly honored to work with each and every client through that journey!

Right now, it probably feels like you’re holding onto water, trying to juggle all the roles you play. Spouse, partner, friend, parent, daughter, son, sibling, employee, and the list goes on. You feel like you don’t have a grip on your relationships with others, and it gets challenging trying to find a solution. There might even be different times when you suppress all the stress of this, or there might be other times when you say things to others you don’t mean. That is frustrating and hard.

Life is messy, and we all need a safe space at times to talk through it. After 12 years of working with individuals and families, I have begun building a team of talented clinicians who are eager to help people live a fulfilling life. Rewired Health is currently accepting new clients for convenient, online therapy. Our team is trained to handle complex issues related to depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, and much more. We are dedicated to building safety for our clients and helping them find the freedom and hope that comes with strong mental health.

Consider this - You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep other people warm. Have you been keeping others warm for far too long at the expense of yourself? Is it finally time to put YOU first? Whether you are struggling with things that have happened in your past, seek to have more fulfilling and lasting relationships, or simply just want to feel better than you did yesterday, I would be honored to walk beside you. I like to think of going to therapy as a scheduled time in your week to invest in yourself – it doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you. Rather, coming to therapy means something is RIGHT with you.

Conversations have the power to heal. I’ve witnessed that time and time again. As a wellness and life transition coach, my primary goal is to develop a strong relationship with my clients and create a supportive environment where they can feel safe to explore their deepest concerns. My approach to coaching is guided by the belief that no matter how much you might feel like you’re stuck in a box or confined to only one path in life, there’s always another way. But sometimes it takes a good guide to steer you in the right direction. That’s where I come in.

I am currently accepting new clients! I am ready to meet you exactly where you are in your mental health journey. There is something so empowering about being able to discover your most authentic self. I am willing to walk alongside you as you move towards that version of self while helping to guide you to find the voice we all desire to have and the empowerment to use it when working through any life situation. There comes so much strength, purpose, and motivation to reach our mental, emotional and physical goals when we have someone supporting us from the sidelines.

Do you wish your life held more happiness and joy? Do you need help from someone who is not involved in your daily life? Maybe you simply need a trustworthy, safe person who can listen and support you without bias or judgement? You can have a better life and I am here to help you find it! My goal as a counselor is to help my clients find a better life for themselves. I serve as a guide on that mission.I have a servants heart and see my profession as a counselor as my way of serving others.

If you are struggling with pregnancy loss or the journey through postpartum, I would LOVE to walk with you through that. Do you ever feel like life is hard and the burdens of life get so heavy? My goal as a counselor is to create a safe space for you to feel heard. I desire for everyone who walks in the door to leave feeling encouraged, heard, and confident to move forward.

I am passionate about helping my clients be successful! Many of us have ideals about what we want our lives to look like, fulfilling relationships, a sense of purpose, and a trajectory to reach our goals. And still we get stuck more than we need to. We walk through proverbial minefields trying not to misstep, often due to ineffective communication and behavioral patterns. Where did we learn these? Some genetics, some environment. The result may be depression, anxiety, personality challenges and an inability to experience healthy attachment. Acute or chronic trauma, past or present sometimes adds to the challenge of the life we want.

Undergoing lasting change outside of our comfort zone can be a vulnerable process. I strive to provide a safe place for individuals to come and to be able to embrace healing. It can be an even more difficult process if one is not in a safe environment. Providing this safe, nonjudgmental atmosphere is crucial, in addition to working collaboratively with a supportive therapist. My goal is to help individuals cultivate healthiness in every area of an their lives, physically, emotionally, and mentally.

In my work, I believe in partnering with each client to understand their unique experiences and point of view. I provide a safe and nonjudgmental space to clients of all backgrounds in which we can explore issues of the past and present, as well as identifying personal strengths, values, and goals. In order to support the therapeutic process, I focus on exploring personal narratives, strengthening systems of support, and developing new communication and coping skills.

I am sad to say that I am not accepting new clients at this time. Are you feeling stuck in your healing process? Do you want to learn new ways to solve problems, manage stress, express emotions and improve self-esteem? My first goal as a clinician is to cultivate a warm, friendly and nonjudgmental therapeutic environment that will help you reach your treatment goals. Through building a strong, collaborative relationship with you, I hope to empower you to develop more effective strategies to cope with whatever brings you to therapy. Let's together on this journey as you succeed in making real changes in your life.

I am a daughter of Lao refugees, born and raised in Tennessee. I love working with clients who are wanting to process through their trauma, in the midst of life transitions, experiencing anxiety and/or depression, and wrestling with aspects of their identity. Throughout life, I have learned that every human has a unique story; having a longing to be understood, accepted, and seen and continue to learn the importance of understanding all the different parts that make up my clients’ lives. It’s my desire that I create a safe space for you to bring and be all of who you are on your unique journey of healing and discovery.

Is your life or relationship stuck? Are you ready to make a change? Is there a better version of yourself out there someplace that you left behind or maybe that you have never even met before? If you are ready to make a change or just ready to make sense of your story then lets work together!
