I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Tennessee. I have over 16 years of experience supporting people through crisis, grief/loss, adjustment to health changes, caregiver challenges and coping with anxiety and depression.
My style is warm, compassionate, accepting and collaborative.
I use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy and motivational interviewing. I will partner with you to achieve your goals whatever they may be.
My goal is to make therapy a safe and productive space for you to explore, process and grow. You will always find me ready to meet you where you are and ready to empower you for the journey. I would love the opportunity to work with you!

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
