Addiction & Recovery Counseling
As a Tennessee Licensed Alcohol and Drug Abuse Counselor (LADAC II), I support individuals, couples, and families seeking hope, healing, and lasting recovery. Whether you’re actively using substances, beginning recovery, or working toward deeper emotional sobriety, we’ll create an individualized plan around your needs and goals.
My counseling style is relational, accepting, and free of judgment—meeting you wherever you are in the process. If you’re reading this, you’ve already taken an important step. From here, we can work together to build a healthier, more fulfilling life with greater clarity and confidence.
Counseling Approach
No two people share the same story, which is why therapy shouldn’t follow a one-size-fits-all approach.
My work is grounded in evidence-based practices including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) recognizing that lasting change happens when we understand the relationship between our thoughts, emotions, behaviors, nervous system, and relationships.
Together, we’ll explore not only what is happening in your life, but why it’s happening. We’ll identify patterns that no longer serve you, strengthen your emotional resilience, and develop practical tools that support lasting growth.
My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your unique goals.

Couples Counseling
Healthy relationships require more than good communication—they require emotional safety, trust, and connection.
Whether you’re navigating recurring conflict, rebuilding trust, preparing for marriage, or simply feeling disconnected, couples counseling can help you better understand one another, strengthen your relationship, and develop healthier ways of communicating.
My work is informed by Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFCT), an evidence-based approach that helps couples move beyond cycles of conflict and create more secure, attuned relationships.
Family Counseling
Families often develop patterns that leave everyone feeling frustrated, unheard, or disconnected. Family counseling creates a space where each person can be understood while working together toward healthier communication, stronger relationships, and more effective ways of solving problems.
Whether your family is navigating substance use, ADHD, adolescence, behavioral concerns or major life transitions, we’ll work together to strengthen the family system as a whole.
