I work with clients who have suffered anxiety and depression, grief, traumatic histories, addiction, painful relationships, and eating disorders.  I also work to help people through transitions in college years,  career changes, and with couples counseling. Currently, I am training to work with psychedelic assisted therapy, in particular, with Ketamine assisted psychotherapy.
 

My office offers a peaceful place for you to be recognized and heard, to explore your needs and wishes, and to get to the root of the pain or confusion you may be experiencing.  It is a place for you to gain tools and resources that will help you live more comfortably in your own skin, and achieve the life you want to live. Through individual, group, or couples psychotherapy, we can work together to achieve your personal goals and a healthier, happier YOU. 

 

My experience and training in the field of psychology spans over 20 years with trauma, relational issues/attachment style, mindfulness meditation, somatic healing, addiction, and eating disorders. I’ve authored published articles in professional journals as well as curriculum for psychotherapy groups and workshops.  Through life experience, training, and practice in psychology, I have honed skills to help people heal life long patterns that no longer serve as helpful ways of coping.  ​

 

I provide psychotherapy for couples, individuals and art groups in my office located in the center of Nashville, TN.   I also write and create art. I stay involved in my community through 12-step programs and sober living organizations.
