My ApproachOur past has a great impact on our life today and how we live it, and essentially our future. Understanding that dynamic is very important in healing what is going on in the present. I begin with some behavior practices to help you get functioning then I explore life experiences up to this point and family of origin so that together we can find the core of the issue and make your life work for you. I utilize Bilateral Stimulation as a modality to treat chronic issues and other issues of concern. Your family of origin greatly effects how you parent your own children and, frankly, how you parent yourself and hold your self accountable. Which, in turn, effects how your children parent their children and hold themselves accountable. It all boils down to, how well are you able to make your life function? Often we are given messages and labels that follow us through our lives. I want to help you differentiate who you really are from who you have been told to be. Lets discover together who your AUTHENTIC SELF is, not what you "should be." My approach is relaxed and casual. I am not confrontational but also will not coddle you. I have worked in mental health since 2003 in various levels of mental health and addiction. I am an LCSW in the state of TN and FL. I counsel individuals, couples, loved ones, families, and teens 16 years and older. My approach is not to change who you are or fit you into a box, but to make who you are work for you, and find who you are and who you want to be. My approach is Cognitive Behavioral and Interpersonal with a focus in a Bio-Psycho-Social-Spiritual, Person in Environment, and Person-Centered perspective.
