Therapists in Shelbyville, TN
Many people think that mental illnesses are “all in your head” or that only weak people have mental health issues. They may tell you that it will go away if you just ignore it. These are all untrue and no matter what kind of mental health condition you have, you need treatment to feel better. Luckily, Shelbyville has some of the best therapists in the state.
Shelbyville is the “Walking Horse Capital of the World,” and is the home of the Tennessee Walking Horse industry. In fact, every year there is a celebration to award the breed’s grand champions. However, those with mental health disorders like depression or anxiety may have a hard time enjoying anything so they need to get treatment from one of the Shelbyville counselors today.

Mental Wellness Specialties: LGBT
8 years offering treatment
I earned a Masters in Social Work and Masters in Public Health from Tulane University in New Orleans. I have specialized in working with people living with HIV work through mood disorders, trauma and family conflict for the past eight years. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, Rogerian and solution-focused theories. I focus on your current concerns and work with you to develop strategies to cope with your current situation. My goal is to listen empathically to ensure you feel supported and provide feedback and suggestions when appropriate. Former clients have described me as straightforward, non-judgmental and attentive. I offer live phone or video sessions on weekdays with very limited weekend availability. I usually respond via text throughout the day on weekdays with less frequent communication on the weekends. Making positive changes in your life can be challenging and I commend you for taking this step. My license only allows me to work with people who live in Tennessee. I look forward to working with you.
