Great to meet you!

I'm grew up in Tennessee and graduated from the University of Tennessee with a masters degree in science and social work. My experience in mental health began in health care and supporting clients with chronic health issues. This led to an interest in mental health and how our thoughts and emotions affect our body. My knowledge is built on 15 years of inpatient and outpatient care. I have extensive study in the treatment of grief, depression, trauma and anxiety.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My style of therapy is collaborative with the focus being on helping clients find desired outcome. I try to help you realize your resources and abilities that you already have.

What you can expect from our first session

I have certifications in both solution focused therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy. Clients can expect to find practical take aways to begin practicing right away.
