Through your life experience, you already have some good ideas about what's working for you and what isn't, but making lasting change can feel difficult. Perhaps relationships have been more stressful than it feels like they should be. Perhaps anxiety or depression seem to steal your energy and stop you from doing what you truly want to do, or maybe you’re not sure yet what you want to do. Maybe you've made good traction in your career, but are looking for a shift or change, or want to try something completely new. My approach with clients is collaborative and detail-oriented. I take the time to truly understand who you are: your strengths, needs and values, so I can tailor my counseling uniquely to you.

Benefits
What I bring to the table
What I bring to the table
My own experiences/challenges with relationships and dating, as well as (gratefully) my current relationship with my husband and kids; my own career evolution that led me from an MFA in Creative Writing in San Francisco, to being a therapist in Nashville. My own struggles with self - esteem and not recognizing my value, as well as bouts of anxiety and insomnia, and reaching out for help. I have also struggled with learned behaviors and over - reactivity, as well as chronic pain. I have experimented with a variety of modalities as a client and made significant progress for myself with the guidance of others. I say this only to share that I have experienced the process of change and it is extremely exciting, so I would like to share it with you!

My approach with clients begins with the foundation that I am truly excited about you and your journey. I strive to be an attentive listener and to work with you to discover who you are and what you need. Life can be difficult, painful, and confusing (or, at times, just not that great). Through acknowledgment and understanding, these feelings can become less acute, and give way to more positive, nourishing, and self-fulfilling ways of being. If life is just not feeling that great for you right now, we can find what lies beneath this and help you to find a better way forward.
