About Me

Hi! I am a therapist working in Franklin TN. I love working with clients who have experienced trauma related to religious experiences, sexuality or gender discrimination, childhood abuse or neglect, emotionally immature parents, or sexual assault. I also work with teens and adults struggling with mood dysregulation, low self-esteem, anxiety, body image concerns, depression, self-harm, and relationship issues. I prioritize creating a safe and affirming space for neurodivergent individuals and those in the LGBTQIA+ community.

Education & Experience

I graduated in December of 2021 and have been practicing as a therapist since then. I am going through Somatic Experiencing training and have completed Beginning I.
