I am a licensed counselor in Georgia and Tennessee with over 25 years of professional counseling experience. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Social Work in 1992 and my Master’s Degree in Community Counseling from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in 2000. I later completed my Post‐Master’s Clinical Mental Health Counseling Certification at Freed‐Hardeman University in 2019. I have worked in private practice and as a crisis assessor, supporting adults, couples, children, and families. I specialize in anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, grief and loss, family conflict, and crisis intervention. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in evidence‐based practices.
I love working with people and helping them "grow" through the things of life that they "go" through. A quote that I love to share with clients and live by personally is to remember not to focus on your purpose but to live your life purposely. As a military social worker my background is specific to first responders, but most importantly individuals that are learning their new "normal" after traumatic life events that have unexpectedly shaped them.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Nashville
Finding the right ADHD therapist or psychiatrist in Nashville starts with understanding what kind of care you need. A therapist — such as an LPC, LCSW, or psychologist — can help with building coping strategies, improving focus, and managing day-to-day challenges through approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). A psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can evaluate ADHD, prescribe medication, and provide ongoing medication management. Many people benefit from working with both.
Nashville has a wide range of mental health providers, but narrowing your options can take time — especially when you need someone who specializes in ADHD and accepts your specific insurance plan. Consider what matters most to you, whether that's a provider experienced with adult ADHD, someone who offers virtual sessions, or a practice located near East Nashville, Germantown, or the Gulch. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their background and decide if they're a good match.
ADHD therapy in Nashville can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to lower your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs upfront, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find an ADHD specialist who is both the right clinical fit and covered by your plan.
