I serve the communities of Franklin, Cool Springs and Brentwood TN. With an abundance of life experience, it is my hope to walk with you through life's challenges whether they be family related, relationships, marriage, career, child rearing, illness, divorce, grief or any combination of these. I also diagnose and treat ADHD, Borderline Personality Disorder, Bi-Polar, Dissociative Identity Disorder, Anxiety, Depression, and other disorders.

There is so much potential each of us leaves on the table, my goal is to help you tap into that. You must develop a healthy relationship with yourself and others to rediscover that joy in life.

Are you motivated to feel better at work, home, or school but do not know how? Are you at lunch googling Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Couples Counseling, Divorce, or a new job? Is adulting too hard? I am a clinician with 25 years of experience providing an array of mental health services. I have a background working for large healthcare systems where I provided direct client care, managed teams, trained clinicians in emergency rooms, medical settings, and behavioral health clinics giving me a unique perspective on how to support a wide variety of symptoms. I believe that everyone is capable of healing.

Sometimes life doesn't go the way we thought or planned. Maybe it's your career, relationships, loss of a friend or loved one, parenting or all of the above. We have so many struggles and mountains to climb in life but you don't always have to go through those alone.

There are times life becomes difficult. Obstacles present themselves and you just need guidance on how to overcome or cope with them. Situations may cause you to feel as if there is a loss of control of your life. Generational challenges, including trauma, addictions, communication problems, and stress could cause a once balanced lifestyle become chaotic. Life happens and everyone needs an advocate. For those times I am there to help clients, move forward and maneuver life, family, career, and social interactions.

Life is full of transitions. Experiencing growth and difficult times can be incredibly heavy and isolating. Imagine what life would look life if you prioritized your mental health. I specialize in different areas including: depression, anxiety, grief, self esteem, relationship conflicts, career transitions, substance abuse, and more.

I work alongside professional men including, but not limited to athletes, healthcare providers, first responders, business owners and leaders discover their true potential; whether in their career, family, personal identity, communication, or relationship concerns. When depression, stress, addiction, and unhealthy relationships get in the way of your success, consider working with an experienced clinician who provides a down to earth, professionally safe space, free of judging and full of compassion and empathy.

I believe that everyone should live their life without judgement, fear or distress. Developing trust with your therapist is the most important first step in a therapeutic relationship. Once trust and rapport has been established, I will work with you to develop the goals of therapy. If you are having difficulties with a past trauma, abuse, neglect, domestic violence, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and career or life transitions. I am here to help you build management and coping skills. A vast majority of my experience has been working with individuals that have an array of social and behavioral difficulties.

Based on *you* we custom-fit life to your unique strengths and limitations.

Are you overwhelmed and burnt out? Are you upset at not meeting your goals and expectations? Do you constantly struggle with managing your work-life balance? People might think that you have it all together, but on the inside, you are critical of yourself and disappointed. You also might struggle being confident in your decisions and often find yourself second guessing and overanalyzing. I commonly see high achievers and executives that are afraid of criticism, feel like imposters, worry about upsetting others.

Are you a business professional caught in the whirlwind of balancing work and personal life? Feeling the weight of stress, conflicts, and impostor syndrome? I understand. You need support tailored to your challenges: managing workplace stress, improving relationships, and finding balance. Let's work together to find coping strategies, strengthen connections, and reclaim fulfillment. Trust in my HR background and compassionate approach to guide you toward thriving in both your professional and personal spheres. With specialized training in supporting diverse needs, I'm here to help you navigate this journey and unlock your potential.

We all at times feel inadequate, have a loss of direction, identity, and/or authenticity which transitions into a loss of real relationship. Our feelings, anxiety, depression, life losses, medical conditions, and other mental health challenges can knock us off balance. I am here to walk alongside others in finding a healthy path and learning to deal with reality in a positive way. My goal is to equip clients with healthy tools to live their best lives- a life that is true to themselves, that is whole, authentic, and empowering, providing contentment & fulfillment.

**Now Accepting New Clients** I see adults and adolescents who typically present with anxiety and/or depression. If I had to name just one specialty, it would be anxiety. Most people suffer some form of it at some point in their lives. When left untreated, it can lead to more severe symptoms and a whole host of diagnoses. I practice primarily Cognitive Behavioral techniques. I will talk to you about your beliefs, expectations, and how you experience the world. I'll teach you to be more accepting of yourself, so you can stop judging and reacting from created stories. I will also help you improve foundational behaviors.

I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Nashville, TN. I've been working with those facing very stressful life changes for some time and are finding anxiety or depression in their daily life increasing.

At times we all experience difficulty adjusting to life changes, feeling trapped in negative relationships (self, family, peers, partner), challenged with low self confidence, lack of boundaries, low mood, and overwhelming anxiety. Or perhaps reenacting past traumas or learned patterns of dysfunction. If you are stuck and not moving forward, then I encourage you to pursue this next step. It is time for self care. With me you will experience a warm, welcoming, and safe environment. It is important that you feel comfortable and empowered throughout this growing process.

You are too valuable to ignore. The issues you're facing are too solvable to avoid. The quality of your experience in this life is too important to neglect. Showing up for yourself can mean a lot of different things. Connecting with one of our therapists can be the first step in a series of meaningful steps toward a life full of success, satisfaction and serenity. We help our clients set intentions for their lives and walk with them on their journey toward mental, emotional and relational health.

Hello, I'm Jay; as a late diagnosed ADHD'er, I am committed to providing compassionate support for neurodivergent adults, teens, and couples. My practice is centered around understanding and embracing neurodiversity, ensuring a safe and inclusive environment for growth and exploration. I also specialize in working with individuals who have faced various forms of trauma, including childhood, medical, religious, and intergenerational challenges. Life can be overwhelming, and my goal is to help you navigate through these difficulties.

Hello everyone! Thanks for taking time to read my profile. I help disconnected couples, restless entrepreneurs, and individuals stifled by anxiety and depression. When I entered this profession, I realized that everyone on the planet needs a safe place to go where they can be completely themselves...and say anything they care to say. At times we need to chat with someone who's not part of our family or friend circles, someone with the training and skills to navigate confusing thoughts, emotions, relationships, careers, and matters of faith.

Being a human is hard. Things happen that leave us feeling lost and uncertain of what to do with it all. On top of that, we hold a lot of what happens to us in the body, creating a struggle between what we feel and what we know, and wreaking havoc on our ability to function in the here and now. I am passionate about exploring this struggle through the creative arts, somatic work, and talk therapy. Words aren’t always enough, and using a blend of these three approaches opens up a deeper well from within our spirits. From that well, new life springs forth and we connect with our most authentic self.
