Therapists in Knox County, TN

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I work with adults across the life-span, including recent high school graduates and college students navigating the transition to independence as well as adults in other stages of life. I use a variety of therapies to treat a range of conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, psychosis, trauma, and other life difficulties. In addition, I have specialized training in the LEAP method for gaining medication compliance for people suffering from psychosis. I also have extensive training and experience treating personality disorders, including borderline personality disorder.

As a therapist, I love to walk alongside you during your self discovery journey of becoming your true authentic self. And on this journey of well being, one will learn the importance of self love, self care, boundary setting, effective communication, problem solving, emotional regulation, and displaying your true authentic self. And first things first, you MUST start with your mind, body, and spirit and I will like to assist you in every goal you set for yourself in a holistic way.

Are you asking yourself what you want out of life and wondering how to get there? Life can be painful, confusing, and feel directionless. At the same time, we all possess an inner wisdom that healing happens when we are able to access our true selves. I am passionate about deepening others' capacity to see and be seen in new ways. I hold space especially for those who experience anxiety, depression, and difficulty with life transitions. I also work with clients who are struggling with religious trauma, doubt, deconstruction, or other forms of hurt inflicted by faith systems.

Many people seeking therapy are simply sensitive souls in need of new or different ways of protecting themselves in a world which does not always honor the intuitive, sensitive, and creative self. I am passionate about helping individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, and obsessional thinking that I believe often results from highly sensitive creative individuals lacking an outlet for expressing and/or understanding themselves.
