About Me

I am a therapist specializing in individual and group therapy for adults and adolescents, and maintains a private practice in Mt. Juliet, TN.

My vision for counseling is to, “foster an environment that promotes the client’s exploration of resolutions to life’s problems.”  I understand that therapy can be a difficult, yet rewarding process.  I believe that the real work of therapy must be done by the client and I work collaboratively with the client to identify therapy goals and the “roadmap” to the achievement of those goals. Because I believe that each client presents unique problems, I use an integrative approach to therapy that draws mainly from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
