Spirituality Therapists in Shelbyville, TN

Life often forces us to address challenging situations. Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, marital conflict, or a multitude of other personal issues, there are solutions that can help. Counseling offers you a supportive environment where problem areas are explored and goals developed to help you get your life back on track. It's through this process and the therapeutic relationship that true personal growth, healing, and acceptance occurs. I embrace a genuine, compassionate approach coupled with the most effective, evidenced based interventions that are goal directed and solution focused.

Do you feel like you spend all your energy managing your anxiety, sadness, panic attacks or hiding how you feel from those around you? Or do you feel like you're burdened by past trauma that causes you to make unwanted decisions or to feel unwanted things? You're here because you're unsure if you can overcome what's holding you back and it feels like nothing helps. From our first session together you will have a clearer direction on the path toward healing and have concrete tools to start working on improvement from day one. Life can be better, even if it doesn’t seem like it right now.

Having the opportunity to help people grow and heal is why I became a counselor. Sometimes we need help and that can be hard to ask for. I am a Christian counselor and have been ordained for 14 years. If a person is in a marriage crisis I want to be there to see if we can get thru to the other side. My experience in my own personal life has lead me to this place of helping couples, pre marital counseling, or any other individual who feels lost. Most people need good advice. They need someone who is a third objective party. That's what I am. That's what I enjoy. Helping people see things from a different perspective.

I have a genuine interest in learning and connecting with others. I strive for authenticity, acceptance, awareness, autonomy, compassion, and a growth mindset for myself and for my clients. While techniques and modalities may vary depending on the client's goals, I first and foremost, strive to create for all clients a therapeutic environment centered upon safety, empathy, trust, and respect. As Brené Brown said, "Never underestimate the power of being seen."

Choices, we all have them. Sometimes life gives us more than we can handle. Sometimes we need help going trough choices we have to make. Sometimes we need help navigating past choices or choices of others. I help clients to experience a safe environment to explore your life choices and challenges without judgement. Together we can explore the challenging areas in life and distress you are experiencing to customize an individual approach to treatment. I use a holistic, whole person approach with the goal of restoring your body, mind, and soul.

I help guide children and young adults towards a mentally and emotionally healthy life, where they have the tools to pursue their best selves. Life often throws the unexpected at us, and we need someone to help us through life stressors, family conflicts, exploring our identity, and finding goals and direction in life.
