About me

As a licensed therapist with extensive experience across Tennessee and Texas, I specialize in the support of individuals navigating complex life transitions, emotional challenges, and personal growth.

My professional approach is rooted in compassionate, faith-informed counseling to address depression, anxiety, grief, and stress management. By use of evidence-based treatment, I strive to offer holistic care that respects each client's needs, values and beliefs.

Here you matter; I am deeply committed to helping clients explore self-love, relational-love, communication dynamics, and healing. Together our work focuses on individual and relational growth to resolve life challenges such as divorce, aging, depression, anxiety, grief and personal loss.

Drawing from over two decades of clinical experience, I offer a warm, understanding approach that honors each person's unique journey. My therapeutic style creates a supportive environment where clients can explore emotions, develop resilience, and renew a sense of purpose and hope.

Written on Nov 30, 2025 after therapy with Nancy for 3 weeks on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, eating disorders, self esteem, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes

I’ve been seeing my therapist weekly, and the experience has been incredibly helpful. She is both experienced and genuinely caring. Her compassion and empathy create a safe space where I feel comfortable expressing even my most raw and uncomfortable thoughts without fear of judgment. She listens with the intent to understand and always validates my feelings.

She has been a tremendous support as I’ve navigated the grief of losing my mother suddenly. I can tell she truly cares… not only during our sessions but also through her thoughtful check-ins and prompt responses throughout the week. I’m so grateful for the healing and understanding I’ve gained through our work together.
