My Approach

Warm, direct, and present

My style is warm, direct, and present. I'm an engaged therapist — someone who helps you understand what's happening beneath the surface and guides you toward meaningful, lasting change.

I integrate EMDR, trauma-informed care, and evidence-based techniques to help you process the experiences that shaped you, rebuild trust in yourself, and create healthier patterns moving forward. This is a space where you can feel understood, supported, and ready to move forward.

About Me

Licensed Professional Counselor

I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor and EMDRIA-Certified EMDR Therapist based in Nashville, Tennessee. I specialize in helping adults heal from anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and the emotional weight of high-pressure or high-change environments.

Before private practice, I spent seven years working in hospital case management, which gave me a clinical understanding of how chronic stress and unresolved trauma show up in both the mind and body.
