Licensed Therapist, Knoxville, TN

Clinical Consultation & Coaching Services

Not everyone who needs support, requires the intensity of clinical mental health services.

The major difference between therapy and life coaching is the focus of the work. Therapy focuses on mental health and emotional healing, while Life Coaching focuses on setting and achieving goals.

This is why we also offer non-clinical services, such as life coaching and running groups.

Our life coaching service systematically guides clients through the various quadrants of their lives to identify strengths and opportunities for growth. We work to leverage strengths to improve growth areas and achieve greater overall satisfaction.

Clients leave sessions with a clear plan and actionable steps to make the changes necessary to achieve their goals. 

I bet you don't realize how unique your work ethic and resilience actually is. You're so busy getting it all done that you take it for granted.

Your willingness to keep setting goals and going after them, rather than accepting average, is your superpower but it can also be your kryptonite.

Let me guide you in developing the skills to harness your strengths without them becoming your weaknesses.
