I tend to work best with students who look like they’re doing “fine” on the outside but feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck on the inside. Many of the students I see are juggling heavy academic pressure, relationships, family expectations, and big questions about who they are or where they’re headed. They may struggle with anxiety, low mood, perfectionism, or feeling disconnected from themselves or others. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, sort through what’s weighing on you, and learn ways to feel more grounded, confident, and emotionally steady—without judgment or pressure to have it all figured out.

My style is laid back, supportive, and collaborative—I want therapy to feel like a safe space where you can be honest, ask hard questions, and explore who you’re becoming without judgment. Whether you’re feeling anxious about school, struggling with motivation, dealing with relationship conflict, navigating self-worth, or simply feeling stuck, I’m here to walk alongside you as you build clarity, resilience, and confidence in this season of life.

Hi!

I recognize the profound courage it takes to confront one’s inner world, and I strive to create a safe, affirming, and open space for genuine exploration.

My mission is to support clients in their quest for growth, self-discovery, and transformation, and to to help clients confront and embrace the inherent uncertainties of life, fostering resilience and a deeper sense of purpose.

I am here to provide you with the tools, strategies, skills, and support to help you restore balance and bring about the changes you are striving for; increasing happiness in your daily life.

Virtual appts w SC, TN, and FL students, and in person in Nashville, TN! College can be a challenging time! There are no shortage of stressors with classwork, relationships, and clubs/activities all vying for your time. I love to help equip clients to tackle these challenges through helping them see themselves, their relationships, and the world around them clearly. In the counseling world, I consider myself a generalist, but I have specialized training in relationships and trauma. In addition to being a counselor, I am also an ordained minister, a military chaplain, and the Veteran Coach for the TV show "Military Makeover with Montel." I offer video sessions which a lot of my college students find to be very convenient.

Most of the students I work with are figuring out who they are while juggling school, family, friendships, and their future. Many feel the weight of being “the strong one” for everyone else, but behind closed doors they’re tired, anxious, or questioning if they’re enough. Some are navigating being away from home for the first time, carrying family expectations, or balancing the pressure to succeed with the need to just breathe. Others feel out of place on campus and want a space where they don’t have to explain themselves or code-switch. I connect best with young people under 25 who are ready for honest conversations, who value a therapist that will both listen deeply and challenge them to grow. My goal is to give you room to unpack your story, understand your emotions, and figure out how to move through stress, relationships, and identity with more clarity and confidence.
