Career Counseling Therapists in Nashville, TN

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the emotional aftermath of a breakup or divorce? Do you find yourself struggling to move forward and reclaim your sense of self? It is not uncommon to experience high anxiety after a challenging break up or to have moments of feeling frozen, like you don’t know what to do next. You don't have to navigate this journey alone. I am here to tell you, it can and will get better.

We all know that life can be tough, and it may feel as if your brain is working against you. Sometimes life’s challenges can make it difficult to engage in healthy coping skills and self love. This can often lead to struggles with feelings, thoughts or memories that can make you feel out of control. My stance in therapy is that you are the expert on yourself and your experience. My goal is to meet you where you are at, and to provide a safe space where we can work together to identify behaviors that are not serving you.

Hello there. Within my counseling practice, I specialize in providing empathetic support to women grappling with the complexities of relationships (with self and others). Our connections hold profound significance in life, yet they can also be a primary source of conflict, pain, and confusion. This often sparks internal questioning and a variety of conflicting emotions including: feelings of inadequacy, feeling stuck, unseen or misunderstood, anxiety, guilt, shame, anger...to name a few. Creating a safe space to process through these emotions and experiences is important and offers opportunity for a more balanced life.

Fabolous once stated "I am a movement by myself, but I am a force when we're together". I am looking to assist individuals ready to become a force. Willing to become the pioneers of their lives and take full control of their destiny. I am a true believer that when equipped with the right knowledge and resources individuals can overcome any obstacle faced. I will aid as a support providing therapeutic tools and evidence-based practices. Most of the people I have assisted come from vulnerable populations impacted by poverty, incarceration, substance use, and all other forms of abuse.

In my 46 years of practice as a psychologist, in Tennessee, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire, I have had the honor and privilege of working with so many patients on their paths of exploration, personal growth, and healing. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic, existential, and Buddhist theories, with a focus on integrating mindfulness and compassion with self and others. It is my belief that the quality of the psychotherapy relationship between therapist and patient is the principal healing force in treatment. Thus, I do my best to form a good and ethical therapeutic relationship with each of my patients.

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.

I have worked with many adolescents, young adults, families and couples desiring to have a better self esteem, coping skills, communication skills, parenting skills, and a trustworthy relationship with others.

***Now Accepting New Clients***I believe we are all born to create legacies. The world needs a perspective, idea, insight, talent, and gift that only you can give or bring. Different adversities attempt to diminish our belief that this is true. I am a therapist whose focus centers on client self-empowerment and determination. My passion is working with individuals and groups to help them ritualize peace by creating coping mechanisms to face challenges and achieve goals. My practice aims to promote healing by facilitating the creation of new road maps to personal wellness.

One of the most difficult questions to answer is often the simplest one: What do you want? We often fixate on the needs and desires of others, losing touch with our own. I believe your desires are powerful beyond belief. They make you unique and hold the key that unlock freedom and opportunity. As we discover them, we can heal blocks, often past trauma, that hold us back, in order to create something new. I'd love to partner with you and explore where you've been and want to go. Together, we will co-create a beautiful path forward and write a compelling next chapter where you play the Hero.
