Hello! My name is Kiersten Twitchell and I am the Founder and Clinical Director at Live Full Therapy, located in East Nashville. I am an EMDRIA Approved Consultant and EMDR Certified Therapist. Our team at Live Full specializes in working with trauma, anxiety, relationship challenges, neurodiversity, LGBTQIA+, creatives + artists. Live Full therapists all have training in EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems, ACT, DBT and other interventions to support nervous system regulation and healing.
I believe that all of us can benefit from additional support in different seasons of our lives. It takes bravery to reach out and meet with someone, and I’m passionate about building a relationship with my clients where they are able to engage with their own resilience and innate ability to heal. Many of us develop patterns that help us move through and cope with what we have experienced, and often, we realize these strategies are no longer serving us, and are keeping us from experiencing the full life we desire. I walk alongside my clients in helping them become reconnected to their true selves, and reach their goals.
As a Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDRIA approved consultant, and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I utilize both interventions to help my clients process experiences, decrease upsetting symptoms, and develop skills and resources that allow them to heal and thrive. I understand that reaching out for support can be incredibly difficult. I strive to create a safe and trusting space within my office where clients feel comfortable and safe to explore whatever is most important to them. My approach is integrated and holistic, and tailored to each individual person.
