I have a broad variety of therapeutic experience to include crisis intervention and trauma informed care. I received my master's degree in professional counseling from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA and have been practicing in the field for over 10yrs.
Unresolved childhood trauma, neglect, and attachment wounds can turn into long-lasting mental health conditions in adulthood.
As a mental health professional with many years of biomedical research experience, I have a deeper understanding of the neuro-developmental mechanisms underlying trauma, addiction, and mental health disorders. I specialize in diagnosing and treating complex traumas, attachment disorders, addictive behaviors, Autism, and personality disorders.
Many people come to therapy because something in their relationships isn’t working—conflict that keeps repeating, difficulty feeling close, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or others. Beneath these patterns, there is often something deeper: old wounds, protective strategies, and unmet longings that continue to shape how we show up in the present.
Hi and welcome! I am a licensed clinical psychologist in Tennessee, New York, and PSYPact states. I have extensive experience working with a variety of presenting issues, but am passionate about working with individuals on how they show up in relationships, particularly when that feels difficult, confusing, or overwhelming. This might look like noticing unhelpful patterns in your relationships but struggling to change it. Perhaps you have a hard time speaking up or setting boundaries, or become easily irritated with others and later feeling upset with yourself. If this is you, we would likely be a strong fit!
I specialize in working with parents, law enforcement and military professionals, and trans/GNC populations.
I am currently providing virtual sessions only.
Please note I am no longer accepting couples therapy clients.











Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.
Finding the right therapist in Chattanooga starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Whether you're seeking help with anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, or something else, look for a licensed provider who specializes in that area. Common license types in Tennessee include LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist), and psychologists. Psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners are also available if you're interested in medication management.
With many providers practicing across the Chattanooga area — from downtown and the Southside to Hixson, Ooltewah, and Signal Mountain — it helps to consider logistics alongside clinical fit. Think about whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, what days and times work for your schedule, and whether a provider's approach and background match your preferences. Reading a provider's bio before booking can give you a clearer sense of what to expect.
Therapy in Chattanooga can be expensive without insurance, but using in-network benefits is one of the most straightforward ways to lower your cost. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Costs vary based on your specific plan and location, so confirming your coverage is a good first step.
