Russell specializes in trauma, compulsive sexuality, depression, and life transitions. He is passionate about helping others rediscover their sense of wellbeing during life’s inevitable challenges. He cultivates this through an environment of acceptance and connection as the root of therapy.
Russell received a M.A. in Counseling in Boston, MA. He had the opportunity to work at The Justice Resource Institute, where he developed a passion for working individually with adolescents and adults in the field of trauma. Following this, Russell relocated back home to Nashville where he practiced in both outpatient and residential facilities that specialize in trauma treatment. Russell joined Live Full in 2021 and appreciates working with the amazing folks in Nashville.
Russell likes to bring a sense of humor and laid-back demeanor to therapy. He approaches therapy with the attitude that every person, despite their background, is worth helping. Russell appreciates life’s complexities and is able to hold space for nuance in the challenges we face. He creates an environment of safety, understanding, and curiosity that he uses with evidence based practices. He is trained in SAFE EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, TF-CBT, and naturally works from an attachment lens. Further, Russell is currently a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist – Candidate through the International Institute For Trauma and Addiction Professionals.
Russell can also be found exploring new hiking trails with his two Australian shepherds and cheering on all things Nashville sports. He loves trying new restaurants, biking, and connecting with new people.
