I believe that meaningful change happens in the context of safe, authentic relationships. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, or relationship challenges, my goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and challenged in ways that promote lasting growth.
I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and work with adults, couples, and families. While relationships are a primary area of focus, I also work with individuals facing attachment wounds, overwhelming stress, emotional disconnection, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Rather than simply helping you manage symptoms, I want to help you understand what is driving them so meaningful change becomes possible.

I’m committed to providing a compassionate, culturally responsive space where you can feel truly understood as you grow.
When life feels heavy, it’s easy to feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from the version of yourself you want to be.
I help individuals navigate depression, anxiety, life stress, and major transitions while building confidence and clarity. I offer in-person sessions in Tennessee and telehealth for clients in both Tennessee and Alabama.
Hi! I'm a dual-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner, with 6 years working as an APRN with adults. My focus is ADHD, anxiety, and depression, you know, the stuff that shows up in daily life and makes everything feel harder than it should. I handle psychiatric evaluations and medication management, and I actually enjoy the process of figuring out what works for you, not just what works in general.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cookeville, TN
Searching for therapists in Cookeville starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. People look for therapy for many reasons, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, and life transitions. As you compare a Cookeville therapist, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and the kinds of concerns they work with most often. Bios can also show whether a therapist uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, or trauma-informed care.
In a smaller city like Cookeville, local in-person openings may be more limited than in larger Tennessee markets. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Tennessee. When narrowing your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their communication style seems like a fit. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand what sessions may be like and whether a free phone consultation is available.
Therapy in Cookeville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find therapists who match your needs and offer in-person or virtual care, and you can enter your insurance details to check coverage for specific providers. You can enter your insurance details to see an estimated cost before booking, then review bios and book directly when you’re ready.
