Individual Therapy for Adults in Tennessee
I offer individual therapy for adults seeking a thoughtful, collaborative space to explore what’s been weighing on them. My approach is relational, curiosity-driven, and grounded in acceptance. I don’t believe in quick fixes or one-size-fits-all treatment. Instead, we move at a pace that supports meaningful, sustainable change.
I provide in-person therapy in Clarksville, Tennessee and virtual therapy for adults across the state.
A space to slow down, notice patterns, and better understand yourself.
Areas I Specialize In
Below are the primary areas I specialize in when working with adults in individual therapy.
High-Functioning Perfectionism & Burnout
Many individuals I work with appear high-functioning on the outside while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or chronically dissatisfied internally. This often includes high self-expectations, fear of failure or disappointing others, imposter syndrome, burnout, and self-worth tied to productivity or achievement.
In therapy, we explore the origins of these patterns and work toward greater self-acceptance, emotional flexibility, and healthier boundaries. The goal is not to lower your standards, but to develop a more sustainable and compassionate relationship with yourself.
Military & Military-Connected Individuals
I specialize in working with active duty service members, veterans, spouses, and military families. As both a military spouse and the child of a career service member, I bring lived understanding to the realities of military life. This includes deployments, relocations, reintegration, identity shifts, moral injury, and the emotional weight of constant responsibility.
I am a Trained Provider in Military-Focused Care through Star Behavioral Health Providers and offer culturally informed therapy that honors both individual experiences and the systems that shape them.
Trauma, Mood Disorders, & Emotional Regulation
I support adults navigating trauma histories, mood disorders, and emotional regulation challenges that impact daily life and relationships. This includes complex trauma, excessive guilt, low self-worth, depressive disorders, bipolar disorders, intense emotional reactions, and avoidant coping patterns.
I specialize in long-term, relational therapy for individuals seeking depth, consistency, and space to explore their experiences without pressure to “move on” too quickly.
Additional Areas of Support
In addition to my primary specialties, I also support individuals experiencing:
Anxiety, Stress, and Emotional Overwhelm
I support adults experiencing chronic worry, stress, emotional reactivity, and feeling constantly on edge. Therapy focuses on understanding what’s driving these patterns and developing steadier ways to respond to daily life.
Identity, Self-trust, and Life Transitions
Periods of change can disrupt your sense of stability or self. Therapy offers space to explore identity shifts, build self-trust, and navigate transitions with greater clarity and confidence.
Relationships, Boundaries, and Attachment Patterns
Patterns in relationships often reflect earlier attachment experiences. In therapy, we explore concerns related to boundaries, codependency, rejection sensitivity, and connection, working toward healthier and more secure relationships.
Therapeutic Approach
I use an integrative approach to therapy, tailoring treatment to each individual’s needs. My work is grounded in acceptance, collaboration, and curiosity, drawing from evidence-based and relational frameworks, including:
-
ACT helps you make space for difficult thoughts and emotions while focusing on what truly matters to you and how you want to live.
-
This approach explores how early relationships shape the way you connect, trust, and relate to others today.
-
Relational therapy focuses on how patterns in relationships, past and present, influence your emotional world and sense of self.
-
Humanistic therapy emphasizes self-understanding, personal growth, and honoring your lived experience without judgment.
-
CBT helps you notice unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical tools to respond in healthier, more balanced ways.
-
DBT supports emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills when emotions feel intense or overwhelming.
-
EFT helps you better understand your emotional responses and strengthen connection, safety, and trust in relationships.
