Are you feeling...
In my practice, you’ll find a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential environment where we can tackle sensitive issues with honesty and empathy. I focus on developing personalized plans to improve various aspects of life and relationships, whether it’s resolving conflict, enhancing communication, or adjusting to life transitions such as divorce or parenting stress.
Overwhelmed by conflict in your marriage and unsure how to move forward?
If you’re struggling to communicate, resolve disagreements, or feel close to your partner, you’re not alone. I can help by providing practical tools and a safe space to rebuild trust and connection.
Torn about whether to stay in your marriage or pursue divorce?
For couples facing this crossroads, I offer guidance to navigate the uncertainty. Together, we will explore your options and create a pathway to clarity and confidence.
Lost and struggling with the emotions of a divorce?
Whether it’s the stress of co-parenting, adjusting to a new chapter, or managing grief and anger, I can help you find healing and strength to move forward.
Alone in your struggles, without a space to feel heard and understood?
Therapy offers you a judgment-free environment to share your story, process your emotions, and discover actionable steps toward a more fulfilling future.
Who I Help
my specialities include...
Couples Rebuilding Trust
If your relationship has been shaken by betrayal and/or infidelity, there is hope for healing. I help couples navigate the painful journey of rebuilding trust, enhancing communication, and rediscovering intimacy. Together, we will create a safe space for honest conversations and equip you with tools to rebuild your foundation and foster deeper connection.
Mixed Agenda Couples
Deciding whether to stay in a marriage or move toward divorce is one of the hardest decisions you may face. For couples who feel stuck, with one partner unsure and the other desperate to save the relationship, I provide structured guidance to help you gain clarity. Through thoughtful exploration, I help couples uncover their next steps and support you both, no matter the outcome.
Divorce Adjustment
Divorce can be an emotional whirlwind, but it doesn’t have to define your future. I work with individuals to process the complexities of separation, navigate co-parenting challenges, and rebuild a sense of identity and purpose. Whether you’re in the midst of divorce or working toward healing post-divorce, I’m here to help you find stability and strength.
Hi, I'm Blakely
Originally from Boise, Idaho, I’ve explored nearly every state in the continental U.S. and lived in several places. While I’ve enjoyed these adventures, Middle Tennessee is my home. I love the changing seasons, the welcoming community, and the perfect blend of small-town charm and big-city energy. In my free time, you’ll find me outdoors, hiking, biking, or kayaking – activities that help me stay grounded and connected to the world around me.
I’ve been intentional about creating the life I want to live, and helping others do the same is my greatest passion. Whether it’s in your relationships, your personal healing, or your broader life journey, I’m committed to walking with you every step of the way.
as we shift internally, the external world will respond.
