If you feel like you don't quite recognize yourself anymore, mood swings that come out of nowhere, anxiety that wasn't there before, old wounds resurfacing you thought you'd already dealt with, you're not imagining it, and you're not alone in it. I work with women navigating the hormonal and identity shifts of midlife, including perimenopause and menopause, helping you understand what's happening beneath the surface so we can do more than just manage symptoms, and actually get to what's underneath them. I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC-MHSP) in Tennessee with a master's in clinical mental health counseling and training in EMDR, DBT, CBT, EFT, and Motivational Interviewing. I bring experience from private practice, clinical roles in group practice, and residential treatment work for substance abuse."

At an early age most people are taught to be independent, strong, and self-sufficient. But, there are times in life when difficult situations can become overwhelming. During these difficult times in life some individuals do not realize that it is okay "Not to be Okay." Asking for help can be hard.
