Addiction therapists & psychiatrists in Cookeville, TN

Do you feel taken advantage of and like no matter what you do, you can't win? Are you a victim of emotional, verbal or physical abuse? Do you love someone who is caught up in the pain of addiction or mental illness? Have you tried everything you can think of but have no idea how to help or what else to do? Are you afraid your partner, spouse, adult child or other loved one will end up in jail, or worse? I get it. Maybe you're just mad. Maybe you're tired of having to handle everything yourself. I get that too.

Kim is a professional licensed counselor/mental health service provider in the State of Tennessee & Florida. Kim has special training and skill in assessing patient mental health and treating cognitive, psychological, and behavioral disorders using a wide variety of therapy techniques. "In life, we have all endured tough times. I had to deal with childhood trauma and marital issues. I have worked on pleasing people and realizing I am the real me. Life is not easy, and we all have things we can work on".

We all have things we're afraid to talk about, but we also have a lot more control over these fears than we realize. I hope to help you unlock the courage to tackle these fears and take control of them.
