Therapists in Chattanooga, TN

I am a Licensed Psychotherapist in private practice in the state of Georgia. I help children and adults overcome the negative effects that stressful or traumatic life experiences have on how a person thinks, feels, and behaves.

My work as a counselor focuses on helping individuals use the strengths they already possess to enact positive change within their lives. I firmly believe that as people, we possess the powers within us to solve almost any problem that life throws at us. Sometimes, as the result of things we encounter in life, be it: trauma, messages learned in childhood, patterns of thought that are no longer needed, grief, or other difficult life experiences, we have trouble finding the path to the answers within us. As a counselor, I feel privileged to help people find the paths to the answers they seek.

Life can be hard. I know from personal experience. I have been a counselor for over twenty years and a client before that. Counseling provides individuals a safe place to work on making personal changes. I teach skills for overcoming anxiety disorders, such as panic attacks and obsessive compulsive behaviors, as well as working with chronic pain, depression and trauma.

Nashville Neuropsychology & Family Services is a practice that provides comprehensive mental health services to children and their families. The NN&FS team is comprised of highly skilled and compassionate providers who can assess, diagnose, and provide treatment for cognitive, social, emotional, and behavioral conditions. Our team’s mission is to support children and adolescents (and their families!) in achieving their potential through assessment, education, skills-based therapy, and medication management.

I serve individuals who have encountered trauma in their lives. They typically struggle with getting easily triggered and being in fight, flight or freeze mode a lot of the time. It often feels like anxiety so many of my clients come in saying they suffer with anxiety. Many of my clients also struggle with making decisions.

Do you feel like you spend all your energy managing your anxiety, sadness, panic attacks or hiding how you feel from those around you? Or do you feel like you're burdened by past trauma that causes you to make unwanted decisions or to feel unwanted things? You're here because you're unsure if you can overcome what's holding you back and it feels like nothing helps. From our first session together you will have a clearer direction on the path toward healing and have concrete tools to start working on improvement from day one. Life can be better, even if it doesn’t seem like it right now.
