Nashville, Tennessee, United States
When people experience trauma or severe life stressors it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. My passion is bringing healing to those who have been through traumatic / stressful life events. I help my clients, who include adults, couples, and families to find healthy perceptions of themselves and strengthen their relationships so they can know themselves as peaceful, content, whole, and safe. I know that no single method is right for every individual, so I call upon the various techniques in which I have been trained. No matter if I utilize interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Behavioral Activation Therapy, Mindfulness, Compassionate Communication, or other methods, the goal is to help my client come to a place of living a safe, healthy, and fulfilled a life as possible. My educational background includes an MA in Counseling from Trevecca Nazarene University in Nashville, TN. I have a PhD in Family Relations and Child Development as well as a Graduate Certification in Gerontology from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, OK. I also hold an MEd in Adult Education / Gerontology and BS in Computer Science / Psychology from the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, OK.
