I hone in on my abilities to help all you navigators explore whichever capacities it is that you seek to grow through, heal from, or transition into. You are not just another name, but a whole light. We are all perfectly imperfect. I truly believe you can become stronger through a healthier relationship with yourself and others when equipped with the proper navigational tools.

Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.

I get it—feeling stuck in the same old patterns, craving deeper connections, and wondering how to even begin to break free can be exhausting. If you’re anything like the people I work with (and honestly, like I once was myself), you’ve probably spent a lot of time thinking, “Something has to change... but what?” That’s where I come in.

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


Hello! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Independent Mental Health Practitioner (LIMHP) based in Tennessee. I am also licensed in the states of UT and NE. I have been in practice for 15 years. I love working with clients who are genuinely seeking therapy for their own growth and awareness. I enjoy helping clients who want to take a deeper look at behaviors and relationships in their lives that could be modified and or improved. I started my career in community mental health working with individuals who were suffering from addiction, childhood trauma, family conflict, and faith crisis. I feel like I have learned the true impact addiction, poverty, trauma, and abuse can have on an individual and family system. This has helped me create space for clients to feel safe, heard, valued, and respected in our sessions. I look forward to meeting you!

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Franklin, TN

Searching for therapists in Franklin starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and therapy approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what kinds of concerns they commonly support.

Franklin has mental health care options across areas like Cool Springs, Downtown Franklin, and nearby communities, but local appointment times may vary. Virtual care can expand your options, especially if you need a therapist licensed in Tennessee with availability that fits your schedule. Consider practical details like whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers in-person or virtual sessions, has appointment times that work for you, or provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, clinical focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Franklin can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, check your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can browse therapists in Franklin, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
