I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner serving clients in Tennessee. I specialize in helping clients manage depression, anxiety, OCD, insomnia, PTSD, substance abuse, and bipolar disorder with a combination of medication and therapy.
I work best with driven people experiencing a big change. Perhaps, despite your best efforts, things aren’t working out as you’d hoped. Or perhaps you’ve gotten all you wanted and it doesn’t satisfy. I work often with D1 athletes & pros (as well as their family members). I love supporting the romantic partners of people in the public eye. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.
I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with six years of experience helping adults navigate ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety, substance use concerns, and personality disorders. I trained at Vanderbilt University School of Nursing and have a background in neuroscience research, which shapes my practical, brain-based approach to care.
I believe people do best when they’re treated as whole humans—not just a diagnosis. I enjoy breaking down complex mental health concepts into clear, bite-sized explanations so patients understand why they feel the way they do and how treatment helps. My style is collaborative, direct, and supportive.
I’m comfortable working with complex or long-standing symptoms and don’t shy away from difficult cases. I also enjoy working with creatives in the Nashville community and understand the unique pressures that can come with creative work. My goal is to help patients feel empowered, informed, and supported as they move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

I accept everyone as they are right now and try to help them get to where they want to be. I do not judge and I am not critical. I support people through changes that will help them build a more fulfilling life for themselves.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a LGBTQIA Therapist in Memphis, TN
Finding LGBTQIA+ therapists in Memphis starts with identifying someone who offers identity-affirming care and has experience with your specific needs. You may be looking for support with identity, family or relationship concerns, anxiety, depression, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for bios that mention affirmative therapy, WPATH training, gender-diverse experience, or work with LGBTQIA+ communities. These details can help you find a therapist whose training, specialties, and approach align with the care you want.
In a mid-size city like Memphis, affirming therapists may vary by neighborhood, office location, and availability. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond the closest office while still giving you access to licensed therapists in Tennessee. As you narrow your search, consider whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your schedule, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles can also help you understand how a therapist describes their communication style, what populations they work with, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Memphis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for LGBTQIA+-affirming therapists, enter your insurance details, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway helps you compare therapists by specialty, availability, appointment format, and insurance fit, making it easier to find someone who matches your needs, may be a fit for your insurance, and is ready to take new patients.
