ADHD therapists and psychiatrists in Franklin, TN

Maybe you’re the person who holds everything together, but inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or exhausted from trying so hard to get things right. Or maybe parenting is bringing up emotions and patterns you never expected. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, relationships, and parenting. I’m an EMDR-trained therapist, and I’ll help you understand what’s happening underneath—not just manage what shows up on the surface.

I am an individual counseling with over 12 years of experience at the Post-Graduate level. I specialize in working with adults and have experience with many clinical settings, including In-patient care, community mental health and private practice. I also provide Clinical Supervision for counselors that are on track to become licensed in the state of Tennessee.

I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and Board Certified Hypnotherapist based in Madison, TN, with 16 years in practice. I hold a Master's in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and am a certified hypnotherapist through the National Guild of Hypnotists. I'm also an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, so I train and supervise other clinicians in addition to seeing clients myself.

I work with adults and families around addiction, trauma and PTSD, and impulse control disorders, along with anxiety, low self-esteem, mood disorders, OCD, relationship issues, and compulsive or disruptive patterns. Hypnotherapy and Internal Family Sytems are my favorite modalities.

I offer both in-person sessions (at Watershed Wellness Cooperative in Madison) and telehealth, with daytime, evening, and weekend availability.

I’m the kind of therapist who shows up as a real person first. I’m warm, honest, and deeply committed to helping you feel safe enough to be yourself. I have experience working with people navigating stress, relationship challenges, emotional ups and downs, and life transitions. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and genuinely supported.

I graduated in 2022 from Lindsey Wilson College in Columbia, Kentucky with a Master of Education in Counseling. I interned for a year at Serenity Counseling in Gallatin, Tennessee. I learned so much from this internship; not only how to work with my clients, but I learned so much about myself and why I chose this field to work in. After graduation from LWC, I worked under Carlin Giles, LPC-MHSP where I earned the hours required towards licensure in 2 1/2 years. I now have my own practice practice in Hendersonville, TN.

I believe good mental health care starts with feeling heard and respected. My background in nursing has taught me to look at the whole person and consider how mental health, physical health, medications, and life experiences can all connect. I’m thoughtful and thorough in my approach, and I want my clients to feel comfortable asking questions, sharing concerns, and being themselves.
