A Little About Me & My Practice
I am a holistic licensed professional counselor living my dream doing what I love. I work with individuals concerned with depression, life transitions, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, disordered/binge eating, women's issues, men's issues, and relationship issues. My counseling style is warm, accepting, challenging and empowering. I have worked in a variety of settings, including a residential and IOP facility for eating disorders, school-based settings and outpatient clinics. Additionally, I have lived and practiced in many states over the years, including Mississippi, Oregon, Texas and Minnesota. I have been practicing in Middle Tennessee for the last 4 years in a private practice outpatient setting. I am licensed in the states of Texas (License 70012) and Tennessee (License 4543).
In therapy, one size does not fit all. I have learned throughout the years that not all clients benefit from the same therapeutic style or method. I have sought out training in different orientations in order to be versatile and help more people in a holistic manner. In the first session, I will gather background information, discuss what brought you to therapy, your needs and goals, and I will recommend a course of action based on using one or a combination of the following orientations I pull from:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Art Therapy
Mindfulness Based Therapy
Solution Focused Brief Therapy
Emotionally Focused Therapy
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Person Centered Therapy
Relational Therapy
Narrative Therapy
Play Therapy
