About me

As a licensed therapist in Tennessee, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients address depression, anxiety, stress, and life transitions with compassionate, targeted care. I have extensive experience working with young adults, women, and individuals experiencing mood disorders, social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress.

My therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in understanding each person's unique journey. I focus on building self-love, improving communication skills, and helping clients overcome feelings of isolation and loneliness. Whether you're struggling with panic attacks, caregiver stress, or postpartum challenges, I provide a supportive environment where healing and personal growth can flourish.

I am committed to walking alongside my clients, offering evidence-based strategies and genuine empathy to help you develop resilience and rediscover your inner strength. Together, we can work towards creating meaningful, positive changes in your life.

Ms. Kuykendall listened to what I felt my issues were in dealing with my grief. She offered exercises and suggestions and let me talk things out. She was very supportive and helpful to get me moving forward. I will request her if/when I need counseling again.
