Family Therapy in Nashville, TN
Feeling exhausted trying to hold it all together or dread having to keep up a smile and say the repetitious "I'm good, how are you?" Life is tough and sometimes we feel like all we can do is just stay above the water. If you're wanting to get out of this pattern and seek support, let's start today. I want to partner alongside you to help tackle whatever is weighing you down, no matter how big or small. I work with daily life stressors, anxiety, depression, trauma, family dynamics, and also women's issues (such as pregnancy, postpartum and perinatal mental health, infertility, motherhood, and grief/loss).

Almost all of my work includes stepping into exploring our family of origin and developmental experiences to better understand how we came to be, believe what we do, and experience the world and others today.
I love helping young women and couples find wholeness in relationship with themselves, others, and God. Whether you are someone(s) overcoming trauma or family of origin issues, discerning your own belief system, striving to create a life of alignment, strengthening the intertwining of two unique lives before or after marriage, navigating sexual intimacy struggles, or simply going through a big life adjustment and need a safe space to process, I so look forward to meeting you and joining in on the adventure.

With families, I use Attachment Based Family Therapy to repair ruptures between parents and their teen/adult child, especially if your relationship has been impacted by your child's depression, suicidality, gender identity, and/or sexual orientation.
If you tell yourself: “I can’t keep living like this,” we'll be a good fit. I specialize in individuals, couples, and families who've been impacted by suicidal thoughts and related concerns, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, and identity-related stress (gender, sexual orientation, ethnic/racial). These people are cycle-breakers who want to change old family patterns; stonecatchers who try to protect others from mistreatment because they know how it feels; or those who are simply tired of feeling “just ok.” Ultimately I blend the nerdy science of psychology with humility and humor to support you in building a more meaningful life.

Who are you? No really who are you underneath it all? Underneath the shame, the anxiety, the people-pleasing, the depression, and the long-lasting trauma? Your patterns tell a story, the way you carry yourself tells a story, the way you interact with others tell a story, and most importantly, the way you interact with yourself tells a story. Every intricate detail of your life tells a major story. Since childhood we have been embedded with ideas of who and what we are. By the time we reach adulthood we become a melting pot of ideas from society, family and social media. What do you have to say about you?

As a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 1,000 hours of experience, I specialize in helping individuals and families overcome anxiety, depression, and self-worth challenges.
You want to be a better version of yourself and enjoy life, but life's stressors, tragedies, and mental health challenges have left you feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, and lost. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-worth, or identity issues, and what you've tried on your own isn't working.

For this reason, addiction is a family disease.
I began counseling in New York when I was working as a chaplain during graduate school. I began in community centers, hospitals and prisons. During that time I discovered I have a genuine connection and desire to work with people suffering from the disease of addiction. When I returned to Nashville (the city of my birth), I began teaching middle school and high school, primarily with underserved populations. There I found that same connection with hard to reach youth, adolescents and their families. It is my sincere goal to help individuals, couples and families find a path to mental and emotional health and serenity.

Life can take turns that present difficult challenges. We experience those challenges in a number of different ways: difficulties adjusting to new circumstances, confusion in deciding on a career path, struggles in relationships, or coping with loss. Often we feel anxious, depressed, confused, or overwhelmed and need help dealing with feelings and problems that seem beyond our control. Help may come from friends, family members, or significant others, but in some cases help is needed from a trained professional. Therapy is a process that can help people identify more effective strategies both to cope with difficult situations and to achieve their goals.

We build deep relationships with each student, family, and individual, customizing a plan to meet their needs.
The Know You Project is a career consulting service aimed at helping people discover more about who they are, how they're wired, their strength/passion areas, and what career path might be best suited for them. We work with clients in high school considering what do to once they graduate, young adults who aren't enjoying their current position, established professionals looking to make a change, as well as those looking to get back into the workforce after time away for any reason (ex. mothers returning to work). We offer both clarity on vision, as well as personalized job-hunt tools that make clients stand out during the search

It's hard to talk to friends or family members about the lack of joy or imbalance of struggle in parenting.
You have managed or contained life's challenges until it doesn't work anymore. The experiences of the past do not have to interfere with your joy in the present or future. My goal is to create a safe place for you to explore, learn, and create a new way of being in relationships and the world. I specialize in working with individuals and families that have been impacted by traumatic experiences, complex grief, attachment and relationship ruptures. Loss often involves trauma and trauma always involves grief. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy.
