Somatic Experiencing Practitioner
Trauma and Somatic Integration Specialist

My Approach

I believe healing is possible. Through years of working in a counseling setting, I have seen the remarkable capacity of the mind, body, and nervous system to move toward greater balance when they are met with curiosity, compassion, and the right support.

The foundation of my approach is Somatic Experiencing®, a gentle, body-oriented framework for developing greater awareness of the connections between body, nervous system, emotions, and everyday experience. Rather than focusing solely on thoughts or memories, Somatic Experiencing honors the body's own wisdom, allowing change to unfold at a pace that feels manageable and respectful of your unique experience.

I often work with individuals who are navigating the lasting effects of difficult or overwhelming life experiences and are seeking greater self-awareness, resilience, connection, and ease. Our work is grounded in curiosity and collaboration, with attention to the ways your experiences may show up in both your mind and body.

My hope is that you experience our work together as one of curiosity, compassion, and respect. Healing isn't about forcing change. It unfolds as you develop new experiences of safety, connection, and possibility.

A Note About My Practice

I believe it is important to be transparent about the services I provide. While I hold professional mental health licensure in other states, I am not licensed as a mental health provider in the state of Tennessee.

At Southeast Somatics, I offer services as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP). My work focuses on developing greater awareness of the connections between the body, nervous system, emotions, and everyday experience, while supporting resilience, self-awareness, and personal growth through body-based, educational, and experiential approaches. These services are not psychotherapy or mental health treatment.

During our initial consultation, we'll explore what you're hoping to receive from our work together and determine whether my services are an appropriate fit for your goals. If psychotherapy, mental health counseling, medical care, or another level of support would better meet your needs, I will gladly help connect you with appropriate providers and community resources.

My commitment is to practice within the scope of my training and qualifications while helping you find the care that best supports your well-being.

My goal is to provide a space where you feel informed, respected, and supported in finding the approach that best supports your goals and well-being. Whether we work together or I help you connect you with another provider, I want you to receive the support that is right for you.
