Gambling Therapists in Murfreesboro, TN

While pain is an inevitable part of the human experience, suffering is optional. I am dedicated to helping individuals, couples, and families heal from relational and other traumas, problematic sexual behaviors, addictions, and intimacy disorders.

I am a Licensed Master's Social Worker and have 20 years of experience with TN Department of Children's Services including extensive training, knowledge, and experience in working with children, couples, and families healing from trauma, abuse, and addiction. It is a sacred experience to hear, believe, and understand my client's experience. I enjoy working with couples and helping them gain new perspectives. Using a practical approach to behavior change, I am committed to helping my clients reach their goals for healthy minds and spirits.

To begin, Distance Counseling is offered for clients who cannot make face to face sessions. I believe barriers seldom produce opportunities for change. On another note, I am usually asked, what person is best suited or needs counseling? Honestly, there are many ways and templates (Word document and Google Search) geared to answer this question. Those methods sound enticing. Yet, they operate from the focus of a proprietor. Another clinician may indicate the best suited clients are willing and committed. I don't need the BEST SUITED CLIENT, just those who ask for help. Let's Work Together.

I have nearly 30 years of experience helping people like yourself overcome stress and obstacles that prevent us from celebrating our relationships and lives. If you want a professional in your corner to listen and help you navigate, I would be honored to be a resource for you. I offer support and guidance - even gently challenge you at times - but you will be the one who decides what course of action you want to take with your life.

I understand how life can become unmanageable and you are not able to live your best life. I have experienced and treated post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), nightmares, unwanted memories, avoidance of situations that bring back memories, heightened reactions, anxiety, depressed mood, agitation, irritability, hostility, hypervigilance, self-destructive behavior, social isolation, flashbacks, fear, severe anxiety, mistrust, loss of interest or pleasure in activities, guilt, loneliness, sleep disturbances, and emotional detachment.

My greatest pleasure is meeting people where they are and being curious about where they might be going. I don’t believe that I can take anyone to a place I haven’t been myself so I have remained committed to broadening and unburdening my own heart in my personal journey. My personal suffering transmuted by an abundance of grace has been my greatest teacher, so long as I haven’t had to suffer alone. My mission is to join others in their struggle and help them reveal truths that will create freedom in their lives.

I am passionate about my work as a counselor, and I believe in the client and counselor relationship. Through this relationship, clients can be comfortable dealing with issues of addiction, anxiety, depression, family issues, grief, as well as many other personal issues. Exploration of these problem areas can lead to healing.

I am a Holistic Therapist meaning I treat mental health through the lens of the whole person: emotional, relational, physical, and spiritual. I offer experiences treating depression, trauma, anxiety, eating disorders and other mental health issues aiming to bring clients into their bodies and out of the mode of traditional talk therapy. These include psychodrama, sand tray, art, and yoga therapy. Wounding happens through living, relational, body-felt experiences and require similar experiences to heal. I create a safe container and relationship for the natural process of healing to occur. Expect to move, breath, and feel... we will not just sit and talk.

**Now Accepting New Clients** I see adults and adolescents who typically present with anxiety and/or depression. If I had to name just one specialty, it would be anxiety. Most people suffer some form of it at some point in their lives. When left untreated, it can lead to more severe symptoms and a whole host of diagnoses. I practice primarily Cognitive Behavioral techniques. I will talk to you about your beliefs, expectations, and how you experience the world. I'll teach you to be more accepting of yourself, so you can stop judging and reacting from created stories. I will also help you improve foundational behaviors.
