Clinical Psychologist in Nashville, TN

About My Clients

I have found that clients seek therapy with me because they are tired of feeling alone in their struggles and want an emotional connection with a therapist who is empathic, caring, understanding, and non-judgmental. They additionally want a therapist who is experienced in helping them resolve their issues, whether they include depression, anxiety, unresolved trauma, addictions, or relationship issues. At the core, I think clients are searching for happiness, fulfillment, and purpose in life.

My Background and Approach

I believe the best approach to treatment with individuals and couples is to balance both insight and behavioral change. This mean not only helping you find the sources of issues, but also to give you practical tools to enact meaningful changes in your present life and relationships. While I utilize evidence-based practices, I prioritize the therapeutic relationship and believe that success in therapy is greatly influenced by clients’ trust and comfort with me. My hope is that my warm but direct approach to treatment allows my clients to feel welcomed, understood, and safe to speak about the issues impacting their lives. In my work with couples, I rely on the Gottman Method and Relational Life Therapy to help partners improve communication and understanding, build genuine emotional connection, and establish a relationship that is based on mutual respect, care, and love.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
