ADHD Therapists in Gallatin, TN

Therapy is an experience that I have seen from both sides, as a client and clinician. This is why my approach comes from an empathic, relative point of view. My belief is that a client knows more about what they need better than anyone else. However, we all need guidance and assistance at times to help unlock our potential. I have learned that each client has their own set of core beliefs, maladaptive coping skills, and a significant barrier to obtaining the life we deserve. As a result, we can work to change these unhealthy behaviors one may use to numb and escape feelings that are destructive and harmful together.

As a clinical mental health counselor, I am passionate about assisting men in navigating various challenges that impact their lives. With specialization in identity, anxiety, depression, career, resiliency, perfectionism, communication, and conflict, I offer a comprehensive and personalized approach to each client. My therapeutic philosophy revolves around recognizing the uniqueness of each individual. I firmly believe that a one-size-fits-all method does not effectively address the complexities of human experiences. What I do is take the time to understand each client's specific needs, concerns, and aspirations.

My joy is helping motivated clients heal and grow! I resonate with Psychologist William James: "The greatest revolution of our generation is the discovery that human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives." Someone once asked me what percent of my clients experience progress. After some reflection, I was in awe, as the answer was "all of them who desire change." I motivate and walk with anyone who is open to revolutionizing their life. Together, we identify support systems, engage family members, and promote a trust-based relational solution.

Many therapists like myself venture into the mental health field motivated by their own experiences. Growing up in a family that struggled with addictions, grief/loss, co-dependency, violence and dysfunction, I existed in life feeling lonely, worthless, and empty for too many years. I turned my life upside down and reconstructed my life based upon me as I was truly created. Living life whole, as a spiritually connected being, brought me to love, accept and respect myself. In this place LIFE IS GOOD! I know the path that leads to this place.

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.

Do you want to be healthy? That's the goal for many of us. We really do want to be healthy. We really want to truly experience wholeness...emotionally, mentally, physically, relationally, and spiritually. But the fact is we often find ourselves in a journey elsewhere. Life takes us down a different road. Detours become commonplace. We sometimes lose our way. We get distracted and miss our turn. Our pursuit of wholeness can quickly become a journey to simply survive. Our journey can leave us feeling alone and isolated without a connection with anyone.

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.
