Our counselors offer counseling for teens in Chattanooga, TN

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 6 years of experience supporting adolescents, adults, and families. I specialize in helping clients manage bipolar disorder, ADHD, substance use, depression, and anxiety. I aim to create a safe, collaborative space where clients can explore their emotions, build coping skills, and move toward emotional balance and self-empowerment.

I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Southern New Hampshire University. My approach incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy to help clients identify patterns, regulate emotions, and develop healthier coping strategies.

I bring empathy, patience, and genuine understanding to every session. I believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience happiness and fulfillment. Together, we’ll work toward developing the tools and mindset needed to overcome challenges and create lasting positive change.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) that holds a Master’s degree from East Tennessee State University. I have 10 years of experience in the social work field. My passion lies in helping people heal trauma and reconnect with themselves in a meaningful way. I bring a calm and warm presence to my sessions, creating a space where clients feel safe, seen, and supported.

My background includes experience in behavioral intervention, substance use treatment, trauma focused treatment and hospice care. I tailor my approach to meet each client where they are, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), existential therapy, and somatic practices.

Whether you’re navigating loss, processing trauma, or simply seeking a more grounded sense of self, I’m here to walk with you in that process. I genuinely care about the success and outcomes of each person I work with and enjoy supporting and encouraging them to live as the version of themselves that feels most authentic and aligned.
