Therapists in Chattanooga, TN

We all experience relationship conflict, overwhelming/traumatic events, and internal struggles. My therapeutic approach is focused on helping my clients to better understand themselves and how their history has impacted their present. Along this journey, I empower clients to use certain tools and resources to move forward into the vision that they want for their future. I approach experiences and beliefs from a trauma lens, utilizing EMDR to reduce distress, regulate nervous system functioning, update neural pathways, and bridge the gap between the brain and body.

The process of seeking help can feel daunting, especially when you are in the midst of struggle. But you have already taken an incredibly courageous step: you're considering therapy.

Day-to-day life can be exhausting. Maybe you were laying your child down for bed, and they said something that scared you or maybe your family is going through transitions, and you're worried about how they are responding to it.

I work with children experiencing big emotions, behavioral/school difficulties, anxiety, self-esteem, and low social engagement.
