I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Tennessee with 6 years of professional experience. I have worked with clients with a variety of presenting issues such as anxiety, depression, OCD, addiction/recovery, grief, mood disorders, relationship issues, abuse & trauma. As the therapeutic relationship has a high correlation with the efficacy of psychotherapy, I aim to create an open and safe space for clients to share their experiences and truth freely, and without judgment. My approach tends to be eclectic and collaborative as I strongly believe that you are the expert of your story and, therefore, possess many inner resources that will assist you in your journey towards healing and wholeness. It takes immense courage to seek help and hold hope of a life of greater fulfillment and freedom. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
