Relationship Issues Therapists in Nashville, TN

Hello! My name is Stephanie Will. I created Candid Endeavor to provide a safe space for people to have honest conversations about issues that affect their daily lives. Everyone faces challenges, but when those challenges become overwhelming, reaching out for help is an important step. Whatever you are going through, you can bring it to therapy knowing that you will be accepted and respected. I offer therapy services to individuals, couples, and families. I believe people of all ages can benefit from therapy.

I operate from the perspective that therapy is not about changing ourselves. Rather, therapy is simply creating space for the seemingly dark, fearful, and shameful parts within us. These parts want to be seen and accepted, just as we all do. In sessions, I encourage my client to allow their body and inner wisdom to drive the progression of the therapeutic process. I believe that healing occurs as we gently move towards non-resistance and self-acceptance. This process catalyzes the body’s innate ability to transform emotions, the conscious, and the subconscious mind.

Have you been wounded? Many wounds occurred through relationships, and it is through relationship where they can be restored. Though not easy, many of those I work with begin to take risks, experience more meaningful relationships, and even a greater sense of joy in life. Real change is possible and I'd love to walk that path with you.

Many struggle with life issues, however when issues arise that are very difficult to resolve, the insight of a compassionate and objective professional can be very beneficial. The issues that arise in life are as varied as the individuals experiencing them causing one to feel overwhelmed, unhappy and dissatisfied. It is my hope that you will pursue the peace and purpose in life that you deserve.

Be like the bird, who halting in his flight On limb too slight, feels it give way beneath him, Yet sings knowing he hath wings. -Victor Hugo Do you wish you had wings? Do you wish you could sing when the struggles of life no longer offer a steady place to put your feet? Life can be hard. Losses, fear, difficult relationships, or stagnation can steal the joys of our lives.

Or, maybe you have a relationship at work with a boss and coworkers who undervalue you or play favorites with others. Your work ethic and good ideas have long taken a backseat to putting out fires. Or, maybe you are even so far gone that you are more checked-

A GPS is used to guide us to our destination. It gives us a route to get from the current location to the desired destination. But, the GPS does not tell us about all the obstacles we may encounter along the way or anticipate when we may get distracted and miss a turn. During your journey through life, you may be taken off your path by circumstances you did not foresee or by your own choices. As a result, you also may lose your relationship to self, others, and God.
