Couples Counseling Therapists in Murfreesboro, TN

As a Christian Psychotherapist, I offer a faith based practice which allows my clients' spirituality to be as much of the process as they would like. My formal education is in Clinical Psychology. My practicum work as well as two Post-Masters Internships were in Marital and Family Therapy. I have two professional practice licenses granted by the State of Tennessee Department of Health Related Boards. I am a Licensed Senior Psychological Examiner and a Licensed Professional Counselor with Mental Health Service Provider designation. I am also a Nationally Certified Counselor. I have been in practice for 30+ years.

Looking for an experienced counselor who shares your Christian values and faith perspective? Someone with whom you feel comfortable bringing your whole self as you sort out the challenges you’re facing? You long to consistently experience an internal settledness, but the troubling thoughts and emotions just won’t simmer down. That inner critic won't let up, and you’re tired of feeling like your own worst enemy. It's become exhausting, and your body is telling you in physical ways that something's gotta give. Help is here. You can experience more of the inner peace and rest you long for.

I typically work with issues concerning life transitions, addiction, couples conflict, and Family of Origin. I also love working with clients looking to detransition/desist. I have significant experience working with complex cases. Each client brings their individual stories into the room. By the time we seek help, life has typically not been going as we expected. We want to find a way out, but are unsure how to do so. What we need is someone to help us be a guide through to recovery. This is a life-long change that will need continued support. Not only is this our battle, but the battle of those around us.

Life gets hard. Period. Every person has a unique sort of hard, but it's hard all the same. For some of us, it's a single event that changes the trajectory of our lives. For others of us, it's a series of traumatic experiences, decisions, disappointments, or relationship betrayals that result in emotional distress. A sense that life just isn't what it was (and perhaps never will be again) develops and suddenly, "hard" feels BIGGER. Maybe you're struggling with debilitating anxiety, relationship issues, spirituality concerns, or that thick and lingering cloud of depression. Whatever your hard is, you aren't alone.

Now more than ever women, men, and couples are feeling overwhelmed about finding peace and their place in life. We believe there is hope and that there are answers. At Wheeler and Wheeler Counseling we work as a husband and wife duo providing both individual and couples counseling. We are licensed Christian counselors who integrate faith with the daily challenges our clients face. We love collaborating with couples in marriage counseling, premarital counseling, and what we like to call prebaby counseling. As partners in both life and practice, we bring a deep understanding of the joys, struggles, and intricacies in relationships.

New Group Sessions starting in Aug 2024! It is my pleasure to be here for you. We all need help in some way shape or form multiple times in our lives. Whether this is your first time, you didn't quite get what you needed the last time, or, you see help as a weakness you can't afford. Whatever the difficulty you may have faced or you may be facing to get here, I am glad that you have made it this far. I would like to make your journey feel as safe as possible. Let me help you become a part of a group of some of the strongest people I know: those who dare to seek help, face their struggles, and move towards change.

My ideal client is navigating the turbulent waters of grief after the loss of a significant person, feeling adrift in a sea of emotions like sadness, anger, and confusion. They seek not just to survive their loss but to find a way to grow through their grief, longing for a compassionate guide to help them rediscover their identity and rebuild a life filled with purpose and hope. They want to honor their loved one's memory by living a full, meaningful life, yet need support to navigate this journey towards healing and transformation.

As a dedicated and compassionate counselor, my approach is rooted in various therapeutic modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Positive Psychology, Person Centered Therapy, Logotherapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
