Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Sewanee, TN

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, a National Certified Counselor, and have earned a M.S.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Alfred University. After over 25 years as a professional in the film/television and music industries, I've embarked on a career in counseling with energy and passion to assist individuals with a variety of mental health and emotional challenges. As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, my approach is based on a foundation of person-centered and humanistic values. I believe that providing a safe, confidential, empathic and nonjudgmental environment is paramount to successful therapy.

My goal, as a therapist, is to help others create their own happiness by empowering strengths and learning to overcome weaknesses. Depression and feeling overwhelmed in work, relationships, and daily activities is a common experience for most of us. People often need help in resolving conflict with others, wish to stop a bad habit, or desire to understand their self-worth.

Thank you for your interest in my practice. Are you feeling stuck? Is there something nagging at you? Do people consistently tell you that you should change? Maybe you are in pain or feeling stressed. Maybe you want more out of your relationships or your work life. Perhaps you want to be healthier. Therapy can help. Together, let's identify what the problems are and begin moving toward a happier, more energetic you. I will provide you with professional support and suggestions and together we will continually monitor your progress until you reach your goals.

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.

Online in Tennessee & Georgia. You've been in a cycle of toxic relationships that make you feel crazy and not good enough. You're a people pleaser and a perfectionist. You worry about everyone else's feelings but your own. You wonder, "am I the narcissist?" Maybe you've tried to set boundaries with a parent, but still feel misunderstood, criticized, or invalidated. You believe your childhood was difficult but then rationalize that it "wasn't that bad." You won't call it trauma or abuse but then what was it?

Within all of us is a story- when we are unable to express or recognize our own narratives we suffer. Each person needs space, a place where they can just be human and express how their stories have come to pass and all they wish to explore. By providing this space clients can work through their emotive disconnections and hone in on the steps that feel right to them when they feel ready for them.

I have been licensed & practicing since 1995. I provide mental health therapy & also substance abuse therapy to adults. I use evidence based therapeutic techniques. I believe it is important to recognize strengths as well as vulnerabilities. We are all imperfect & survivors. I think the benefits of therapy are perspective, support, accountability, and growth. I think therapy should go beyond insight to include self awareness & ultimately a sense of choice in how we respond to the challenges of life. I can teach skills and techniques that are well grounded in long established & proven approaches.

Are you going through a challenging life circumstance making you vulnerable to depression or anxiety?

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for working with adults struggling to cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, substance use, and adjustment to difficult life transitions. I believe that every individual has inherent strengths that can be powerful catalysts for positive change- although these can often feel just out of reach when we try to carry our struggles on our own. Through a collaborative and client-centered approach, I work with you to uncover and utilize these strengths to facilitate growth and healing that lasts long after therapy has ended.

I am a Licensed Alcohol and Drug Addiction Counselor and have a Masters Social Work Degree. I offer individual therapy, couples and family counseling in addition to group counseling. I specialize in mood disorders, depression post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD), marriage & family therapy, anxiety disorders, domestic violence, trauma issues, grief therapy and anger management.

Does it feel like you’re drowning in the riptide of life? Being a human can be overwhelming and complicated. It is common to be bombarded with uncomfortable thoughts and feelings that you aren't sure how to cope with. Struggles with low self-worth, perfectionism, thoughts of suicide or self-harm, bullying or trouble with peers, destructive behaviors, and trouble communicating (or even just acknowledging) needs can feel unbearable. I want to help you face these difficulties head on and move from just keeping your head above water to thriving.
