Welcome to my site! I’m happy you are here and either taking the first step in improving your life or continuing on a journey you started in the past.
My name is Shaine Malekgoodar and I’m a licensed professional counselor (LPC-MHSP #3368) in the state of Tennessee. My practice is located in Sumner County where I have been in the mental health field for over 12 years, 10 of which have been licensed. Let me start by saying I love what I do. I’m here to help in any way I can, but rely heavily on developing a positive, therapeutic alliance with clients, which includes healthy boundaries, goal-setting, and some laughter as well as tears.
I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues that include depression and grief counseling to parenting support, couples counseling and beyond. I specialize in helping individuals overcome the challenges that occur on a daily basis, but my wheelhouse is treating trauma, using Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR).
I have found that everyday stress can become overwhelming and can result in self-destructive behaviors, thoughts, and emotions. I offer support and assistance in searching for ways to achieve growth in your personal life and relationships. In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a highly personalized approach tailored to each of my clients individual needs to help attain the personal growth they’re striving for.
“You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.”
