Finding Your Way Back to Yourself
Healing isn't about trying to forget the past or fixing something that is broken. It is about building the strength you need to carry your history without it weighing you down. I provide a steady, collaborative space where we can quiet the anxiety and make sense of what you are going through. We use proven methods to help you understand your own mind so you can finally feel balanced again.
Individual Therapy
This is a private space focused on managing the weight of anxiety, depression, and stress. Using Internal Family Systems, I help you get to know the different parts of your mind. Think of it like a group chat where everyone is talking at once. We work to turn those reactive patterns into self-awareness and steady, confident support.
Trauma Healing Groups
There is a unique kind of strength that comes from being in a community where people actually get it. In these guided groups, we use active techniques and the perspective of others to help you move through trauma. It is a safe place to find belonging and heal alongside people who understand.
Addiction Recovery Support
This is a non-judgmental approach to breaking free from substance use or behaviors that have taken over your life. We look at the emotional triggers behind the habits and focus on building the internal strength and control you need for a future you actually want to live.
Transformational Breathwork
This is a practical way to use rhythmic breathing to move your nervous system out of survival mode and into a state of rest. These sessions help clear away mental noise and physical tension, giving you a chance to truly reconnect with your body.
Relationship and Dialogue Skills
Stronger partnerships start with better communication and a real plan for handling conflict. We focus on untangling the emotions that lead to arguments and practice the kind of listening that actually works. It is a judgment-free zone where you can rebuild your bond and find your rhythm again.
Emotional Regulation Therapy
Learn to handle intense emotions by seeing them as useful information instead of threats to your peace. Through mindfulness and practical tools, you will build the resilience needed to stay grounded even when life gets complicated.
Built on Real Insight and Resilience
Using clinical training and personal experience to help you find your way forward.
I don't believe healing is about erasing your past or fixing something that is broken. It is about shifting patterns so you can grow in a way that lasts. I combine professional therapeutic training with a calm, non-judgmental presence to help you lower your anxiety and find your balance again.
Professional Training
A Solid Clinical Foundation
With a Master’s in Counseling and a background in nursing, my career has always focused on the connection between the mind and the body. This experience helps me navigate complex mental health issues—from trauma and depression to specialized anxiety management—using a steady, evidence-based approach that keeps your safety and stability at the forefront.
Effective Methods
Understanding Your Inner World
I specialize in Internal Family Systems (IFS), a model that views the mind as a collection of different parts, each with its own history and role. We will work together to understand these internal parts and foster a core sense of calm and clarity. Whether we are using EMDR, CBT, or nervous system regulation, my goal is to provide a clear, intentional process to help you untangle emotional knots.
A Shared Connection
Personal Experience and True Partnership
I believe the best guides are those who have walked difficult paths themselves. Having faced my own struggles with anxiety and addiction, I offer a space where the messy realities of life are met with compassion rather than judgment. You are the expert on your own story, and I am here as a partner to help you build the emotional strength needed to carry your history with more clarity and less weight.
What Our Customers Say
Building Your Path to Resilience
How we work together to find your balance again.
H
ealing isn't about deleting your past or fixing a broken version of yourself. It's about learning how to carry your history with more ease and less weight. My practice is a space for the real, messy parts of life where you are the expert on your own story. Together, we will work through the patterns that have kept you stuck, building a partnership based on genuine understanding and clinical skill.
Come as You Are
Whether it's your first time or you're coming back
I meet you right where you are today. We start by creating a safe space to get curious about the patterns that feel heavy, without any pressure to hit specific goals or perform for me. This is simply a space for you to be truly heard and understood.
Feeling overwhelmed right now doesn't make you weak; it makes you human.
Tools for Mind and Body
Blending talk therapy with somatic healing
I combine traditional methods like CBT and EMDR with somatic work like breathwork. This approach is designed to help your nervous system move out of survival mode and into a state where you can actually rest. By clearing out the emotional clutter, we give your mind and body the space to work together again.
Your breath is the most direct way to reconnect with yourself.
Progress That Lasts
Habits built for your real life
Growth is rarely a straight line. It shows up in small, important changes in how you handle stress and triggers. We focus on building resilience through manageable shifts that help you feel in control of your daily life again. This isn't about quick fixes; it's about lasting stability and being kinder to yourself.
Healing is about getting stronger so your history doesn't feel so heavy.
Simple, Accessible Support
Removing the hurdles to your healing
I offer hour-long individual and group sessions in Jonesborough, TN, and online for anyone in Tennessee or Florida. I want the logistics to be the easiest part of this process, so I accept most insurance and apps like Venmo or Cashapp. We will keep the focus where it belongs: on your well-being.
We will work through your story together in a space where you can finally grow.
Let's work through the hard stuff together
Moving past survival mode to find a real sense of healing and growth.
You don't have to handle everything on your own. Whether we are exploring your internal world through IFS therapy or using breathwork to clear away stress, I provide a space where you can finally feel safe being yourself. We will work at a pace that feels right for you, turning old habits into steady self-awareness so your path forward feels solid and entirely yours.
