Emotional Release Therapy in Franklin

I do not keep a studio in Franklin, and I am not going to pretend otherwise.

I come to Franklin and the greater Nashville area periodically and hold private sessions while I am there. The dates are not on a fixed calendar — they form around the people who ask, which means the most useful thing you can do is tell me you are here and what you are carrying.

From there we coordinate directly. If my next visit to Williamson County does not work for you, I will tell you, and I will let you know when the following one is taking shape rather than leaving you guessing.

How a Franklin session gets arranged.

01

You write first

Tell me you are in Franklin or the greater Nashville area and what you are hoping to work with. There is no form to survive and no obligation on either side.

02

We find the window

I am in Franklin periodically rather than on a fixed schedule. Sessions form around each visit, and visits often form around who is asking.

03

We confirm the details

Once we have a date, I confirm the location in the Franklin area, what to bring, and how to prepare. You will know exactly what is happening before you arrive.

Working out what you need

This is not the same thing as therapy in Franklin.

If you want a licensed clinician

Search Franklin or Nashville for emotional release and you will mostly find EMDR practitioners, licensed therapists, and behavioural health centres. If you want diagnosis, a treatment plan, or something your insurance will cover, that is the right category and I will say so plainly.

If talk therapy has taken you as far as it can

A lot of the people who write to me already have a therapist in Williamson County and value that work. They come here for the part that understanding has not reached — the pattern that is still living in the body after the insight has landed.

If you have never done body-based work

That is common and it is fine. You stay clothed, you stay in control, and you can pause or stop at any point. Nothing happens that you have not agreed to first.

This work is educational and wellness-oriented. It is not psychotherapy, psychiatry, or medical treatment, and I am not a licensed clinician. There are also physical reasons to wait — pregnancy, cardiovascular conditions, epilepsy, glaucoma, recent surgery, and a history of psychosis among them. The full picture of how the work runs, and who it suits, is on the main Emotional Release Therapy page.

Franklin questions

Emotional Release Therapy in Franklin, answered.

Do you have an office or studio in Franklin?

No. I do not keep a fixed studio in Franklin. I come to the area periodically and hold private sessions by arrangement, in a quiet space I confirm with you once we have a date. It keeps the work discreet and one-to-one rather than clinical.

Do you serve Nashville and Brentwood as well as Franklin?

Yes. Franklin is my base in Tennessee, and I see people from across the greater Nashville area and Williamson County — Brentwood, Nashville proper, and the surrounding towns. Tell me where you are and I will let you know what works around my next visit.

How is this different from the EMDR and licensed therapists in Franklin?

Those are clinical, licensed services that can diagnose, treat, and bill insurance. My work is not clinical — it is hands-on, body-based Emotional Release Therapy that works with where emotion is held physically. Many of my Franklin clients keep their therapist and come to me for the part that talk has not reached. If you need licensed care, I will tell you.

How do I book a session while you are in Franklin?

Write to me through the form on this page with roughly when you would like to be seen. Because my dates form around who is asking, the sooner you reach out the more likely we can find a window on my next visit to the Franklin area. I reply within 48 hours.

What does a session cost?

I do not publish rates. The work is priced per person depending on what you need and how many sessions make sense. Ask in your enquiry and I will give you the figure straight away in my reply.

Tell me you are in Franklin.

Franklin, Brentwood, greater Nashville — include roughly when you would want to be seen and anything I should know. I read every enquiry myself and reply within 48 hours with real dates.

I personally review each inquiry and reply within 48 hours.
