Do you find yourself overwhelmed with the competing priorities of daily life? Stuck in unhealthy patterns such as overuse of alcohol, procrastination, or emotional eating? Are your days spent battling perfectionism and negative self-talk? Would you like to be more active socially but struggle with anxiety or feelings of low self-worth? Hi. I’m Kay. Congratulations on taking the first step toward living your best life! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Tennessee with 15 years of experience providing psychotherapy, assessment, and referral services to adults, children, and families. Additionally, I am a certified Neuropsychotherapist who specializes in the connections between the brain, the body, our experiences, and the environment. Common areas of practice include anxiety and depression management, women's issues, support with the management of chronic health conditions, minority stress, trauma, relationship difficulties, and grief/loss. It takes courage to choose a path of self-discovery and healing. But you don’t have to walk this path alone. Whether you are seeking assistance with managing an ongoing mental health issue, or are seeking solution-focused therapy to deal with a specific problem, I'm here to help

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Know that it's normal to feel anxiety when beginning the therapy process. In sessions, you can expect a warm and trusting environment of unconditional acceptance. The first couple of sessions will focus on getting to know one another and on identifying your specific goals. We will talk more in our first session about the therapy process and what to expect. I invite you to ask questions and share openly.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I strongly believe in empowering my clients, using mindfulness, relaxation, and skills-building techniques to equip them with the tools and knowledge needed for resilience and change. I utilize a mind-body-soul holistic approach to psychotherapy, guiding you toward feeling more balanced and centered in every aspect of your life. Seeing my clients grow, heal, and thrive is the most rewarding aspect of my work. I hope to join and support you in this journey.
