I am excited to work with clients who feel ready for change, are curious about themselves, their relationships, and the ways in which their experiences have shaped them. I have collaborated with individuals across the lifespan and families across their development to find greater joy, acceptance, and meaning within themselves. My clients describe me as energetic, compassionate, patient, and creative. I meet clients where they are and endeavor to walk with them through life's ups and downs. In my work I draw inspiration from Robyn Gobel, Pema Chödrön, and Dr. Raquel Martin.

I am honored to be exploring your healing journey with you. We live in a world where mental healthcare is stigmatized and self-care is a fix-all when what we really need is community care. Healing happens within the context of relationships. I hope to build therapeutic relationships with clients to help them flourish and meet their goals.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 12 years of experience helping adults navigate difficult seasons of life. I hold a Master’s in Social Services and a Master’s in Law and Social Policy from Bryn Mawr College, and I am licensed in Pennsylvania, Missouri, Georgia, Tennessee, and Texas.

My areas of particular interest include women’s mental health, perinatal and postpartum concerns, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, stress and burnout, parenting, relationships, and major life transitions. I have specialized training in perinatal care and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

I came to therapy because I genuinely enjoy the process of sitting with people as they make sense of what is happening in their lives and figure out what comes next. I’m down-to-earth, comfortable talking about difficult or uncomfortable things, and I believe therapy should feel like a conversation—not an interrogation.

I also believe you are the expert on your own life. My role is to bring experience, perspective, questions, and tools to the process while helping you identify what matters to you and what you want to change.

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


In 1986, my journey in the field of human services began, fueled by a lifelong passion for helping others. Majoring in the Human Services concentration at high school laid the groundwork for my unwavering commitment to this mission.

Upon earning a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's in Science with a counseling specialty, my formal training commenced in 2002. Over the years, I've gained extensive experience and expertise, working in diverse settings. Anxiety, stress, worry, uncertainty, addictions and fear don't have to define your life. With over 16 years of clinical experience, I help individuals, couples, and families identify the beliefs, thought patterns, and automatic behaviors that keep them feeling stuck.

Loving someone who struggles with addiction can quietly take over your whole life. You worry constantly, you smooth things over, you set a boundary and then talk yourself right out of it, and somewhere along the way you lose track of your own needs. If that's you, I understand it in a way that goes beyond training. Alongside my years as a counselor, I've spent more than two decades in the Al-Anon community, and I work with adults who are worn down from caring for, worrying about, or trying to fix someone they love. You don't have to keep carrying it alone.
