Therapists licensed in Tennessee

Hi, my name is Tandy Jackson. I hold an LPC-MHSP license in the state of Tennessee and have 6 years of experience working with clients for various issues including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, life transitions, coping strategies, relational issues, emotional issues, and trauma. I am currently working with teenagers and adults in the individual therapy setting. My practice involves a combination of humor, compassion, challenge, and encouragement as I walk with clients on their journey to learn more about themselves and take the risk of trying new things--first in the therapeutic relationship then extending into their lives outside of session.

Hi! My name is Sarah Swensen, and I am a warm, down-to-earth Licensed Clinical Social Worker who is passionate about helping clients navigate difficult relationships, family challenges, grief, and life’s stressors. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Rutgers University and have over 14 years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of helping people work through challenging experiences, better understand themselves, and find ways to move forward. My ultimate goal as your therapist is for you to feel truly heard, supported, and understood. I’m here to help you feel empowered and confident in making choices that are right for you—not to tell you what you should do, but to provide a safe space where we can work through things together.

I am authentically me, and I show up as a human first. I believe everyone carries their own stories, strengths, and struggles. I meet each person with openness and without judgment. I understand difficult things because I've lived through them. I bring personal, lived experience with trauma, neurodivergence, complex family dynamics, and the ripple effects addiction can have on those close to it. This isn't just clinical knowledge to me, it's something I've walked through myself. In a world that can feel unsafe or unwelcoming to those who are "different," I strive to be a safe place for you. My goal is simple: to help you feel truly seen, heard, and feel better. Your healing and your journey are my passion. I’ve been married to my best friend for over 26 years, and together we have an adult daughter, two beloved fur babies, and tortoise. Outside of the therapy room, you’ll most likely find me out in nature, kayaking, walking trails, or simply enjoying the calm. My family and I love playing all kinds of board games, and I also enjoy reading, painting, and watching movies or mindless TV when I need to recharge. At the heart of everything I do is a deep belief that healing happens in safe, authentic connection and I am honored every time someone invites me to be part of that journey.

Hey, I am a Christian Licensed Professional Counselor residing in Tennessee. I am a husband and father. I have been counseling for 16+ years. I have done a lot of work with adolescents and adults who struggle with addictions. I am passionate about mens issues, but I have helped men and women with trauma. I love to help people on their path to wellness, realizing everyone moves at their own pace.

Hi there. I feel very lucky to be able to help others achieve the life they are yearning to have. I use CBT, DBT, and ACT with individuals so they can better understand themselves, identify the barriers that are leading to their frustrations and feelings of anxiety and depression and identify solutions to overcome these barriers. Then clients can find the joy and peace they most desire in their lives.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who is trauma-informed and deeply passionate about the healing that can take place within the therapeutic relationship. I believe therapy can be truly life-changing, and it continues to amaze me what can unfold in the course of a single hour when someone feels safe, seen, and supported. At the heart of my work is the belief that life is about connection—that relationships are what give our lives meaning and are often the reason we get up each day, whether those connections are with partners, family, friends, or ourselves. My goal is to help clients strengthen these relationships, heal from past wounds, and experience greater emotional safety, understanding, and fulfillment.

I use a client-centered, psychodynamic approach to help clients reconnect with their deeper sense of self and wholeness. I am especially passionate about helping clients connect to the truth of who they are and identifying the stories and experiences that have shaped them. I work well with clients who are motivated to figure out what's in their way and take steps to create change.

So, who am I; and what am I doing here, eh? Also, do you struggle to talk about yourself ? - 'cause I sure do. Anyways, let's see... Personnally, I identify as a neurodiverse, cis-female, middle-aged (yes, over 40yo), divorced, single mother of two human loves and one canine love who enjoys spending time outdoors, flow arts, music, and dancing and singing and laughing. Also, learning is my favorite - like, I'm a full-on brain geek, for realz. Professionally, I hold licensure through the State of Tennessee Department of Health as a Professional Counselor and Mental Health Service Provider since March 2025 which allows me to independently provide Clinical Mental Health Counseling services - including assessment, evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of Mental and Behavioral Health issues, conditions, disorders, and illnesses. Proper and thorough clinical assessment, ethical practice, trauma-informed engagement and care, destigmatization, and advocacy are consistent characteristics of my approach toward Client care. As a therapist, I believe in building therapeutic relationships founded on honesty, transparency, respect, patience, alliance, and safety. My style of counseling is raw, uncut, and straight-forward while remaining sensitive, respectful, and culturally aware in offering constructive, caring, well-informed and growth-oriented feedback, guidance, and support. Ultimately, we're in this together.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Tennessee. I received my Masters from Lipscomb University and have been practicing for 10 years. My goal is to provide a safe space to build awareness, to identify communication barriers and to explore your thoughts and emotions as you transition to healthier quality of life. I desire to alleviate stigmas related to seeking professional help. I am passionate about helping clients feel genuinely understood without judgement. I work with adult individuals and couples on various issues including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, LGBTQIA+ challenges, women's issues, and life transitions. Jack Canfield said it best, "All the good stuff is outside our comfort zone.”

Hey! I'm Dr. Andre, a licensed clinical psychologist. I provide therapy for a range of concerns. No matter what you are facing, I strive to understand your situation and help you find relief and clarity. I aim to provide a genuine and trusting relationship and a judgement free atmosphere to explore the concerns you are facing! I completed a BA in Psychology, an MA in Clinical Psychology, and a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, a 12 month internship followed by a 12 month post-doctoral fellowship, and multiple state and national board exams.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with six years of experience working across a variety of mental health settings. Originally from Belzoni, Mississippi, I bring both professional expertise and a strong sense of community into my work. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new restaurants, traveling, and spending quality time with family and friends. These experiences help me stay grounded and connected, which I carry into my counseling practice. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and nurturing environment where clients feel supported as they learn, heal, and grow at their own pace. I believe that one of the most important aspects of counseling is the relationship between therapist and client, and I am committed to building a trusting, collaborative connection with each person I work with.

Reaching out for therapy takes courage, and my goal is to make the process feel approachable from the very first session. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor with more than 14 years of experience helping adults and adolescents navigate ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a genuine conversation built on trust, curiosity, and collaboration. Rather than simply listening or giving advice, I work alongside clients to better understand what's keeping them stuck while developing practical strategies that fit their lives. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with compassion, humor when appropriate, and a focus on long-term growth.

As a clinical mental health therapist and high-performance coach, I am passionate about helping men navigate the complexities of life. Specializing in identity, anxiety, depression, career challenges, resilience, perfectionism, communication, and conflict, I offer a tailored approach that fits the unique needs of each client. My mission is to help high-performing individuals like you not just survive, but thrive, both personally and professionally.

It takes courage to reach out for help. I am passionate about partnering and walking alongside others in some of their most difficult moments to help them reach a sense of hope and healing. I believe we are designed to heal. My greatest priority is creating an atmosphere of safety where my clients can feel seen, heard, and understood. There may have been places in your story where you learned tools to help you survive and those tools are no longer helpful but actually keeping you from living from a place of wholeness.

Hi, I'm Kelcie, and I've been a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee since 2022. I believe that relationships are the cornerstone of our lives and shape how we experience joy, pain, growth, and healing. In our world of ever increasing technology, many of us are digitally connected but feel overstimulated, over-informed, and disconnected in our personal lives. I am passionate about helping my clients experience peace and have meaningful, healthy connections in their real lives.

Hi! I am a psychotherapist (LCSW) with 11 years of practice in the clinical field and over 30 years of experience in the Christian approach. I graduated from the University of Hawaii but serve both Hawaii and Tennessee. I do my best work with clients who are seeking an amalgamation of the clinical and Christian approaches specifically in couples work and infidelity recovery. I have also seen some remarkeable transformations using experiential therapies for more trauma-related presentations.

Hello, my name is Julie Phillips and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I believe in supporting each other and one way I can support you is through therapy. Whether you need to process a stressful event or need to vent I am here to support you. I strive to tailor your session to meet your needs. Some sessions may need to be more strictly focused with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, while other sessions are spent on learning a new coping skill such as mindfulness. Your session is about you and what may help you the most to resolve what issues you may have and to help you find your strength and empower you to keep moving forward. My aim is to make you, the client, feel comfortable in a judgement free zone. I want you to feel like you came to the right place, a warm inviting, calm, and empowering space where you can share what you feel you need to share.

I am a licensed therapist dedicated to helping adults navigate life’s challenges with clarity, confidence, and compassion. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences without judgment. I believe everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and fulfillment, and therapy can be a powerful step toward reaching that potential. I work with women and men who are managing stress, anxiety, perfectionism, or significant life transitions such as parenthood, career shifts, or relationship changes. Many of my clients are striving to balance multiple roles while also wanting to prioritize their own happiness and well-being. In our work together, I may use different modalities such psychodynamic, cognitive, humanistic, and group therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. We may explore underlying patterns, identify and shift unhelpful thought processes, and build on existing strengths. My role is to support clients in gaining insight, developing effective coping tools, and creating healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. Clients often leave therapy with a deeper sense of self, improved resilience, and the confidence to make meaningful changes. My mission is to empower both women and men to move beyond what holds them back and build lives of balance, purpose, and fulfillment.

Basically, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I have a background of working with individuals but due to my family therapy training I do want to know your family situation and ways that work and don't work for you. I have been working with Medicare clients and SPMI (Severe and Persistent Mental Illness). Many time I have found that clients who usually manage their lives well can sometimes feel overwhelmed by changes that occur in their lives. I truly want to locate and focus on strengths, but want to be supportive of areas where support is needed. Life can be difficult and learning coping skills can help us navigate both the highs and lows that life brings us. If needed, I guide individual to explore and analysis their past. I am friendly and positive. I want to help you feel better. If there are traumas, I will listen. 🛷

Hi, I'm Anna. I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor, and I believe therapy should feel like a deep breath--not another thing to brace yourself for. In my office, you can exhale. You don't have to perform or polish anything up. I offer a space that's calm, honest, and rooted in trust--where it's okay to be messy, uncertain, angry, shut down, or just plain exhausted. You have a story and I'm here to help you heal. When I'm not in session, you'll usually find me making jewelry, lost in a craft project, or hanging out with my two cats (who definitely run the house) or chilling in nature. If you're looking for a grounded, real therapist to walk with you through the hard stuff--I'd be honored to work with you.

I’m Johanna. I work with creative people, and with those who are working to heal, transition, and evolve from things that have hurt them. My approach blends traditional talk therapy with deeper work. With the use of Brainspotting and Jungian interventions, because real change rarely happens at the surface, we create deep meaningful change. When we're willing to go underneath, to the place where the old story lives, we can heal it and create room to become something new.

I’m a licensed psychologist (PhD) specializing in autism, ADHD, and complex patterns in both children and adults. I work with thoughtful individuals and parents who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or like something isn’t fully adding up—especially when traditional approaches haven’t helped. My approach is warm, direct, and insight-driven. I don’t just listen—I help you understand patterns, make sense of what’s going on, and figure out what actually works for your brain (or your child’s). I’m neurodiversity-affirming and experienced in differentiating anxiety, burnout, ADHD, and sensory or social overwhelm. With parents, I focus on helping you understand your child more clearly and respond in ways that actually work—so things feel more manageable at home. Sessions are collaborative, practical, and focused on meaningful change.

Hi, I’m Holly! If life feels heavier than it should right now, you don't have to carry it alone. For the last twelve years, I've walked alongside adults, adolescents, and individuals of all genders and identities as they work through some of life's hardest challenges. I believe you already have strengths within you that we can build on together. You deserve a therapist who meets you exactly where you are, without judgment. My goal is to help you navigate the challenges life has handed you by drawing on the unique strengths you already carry. Whether you're navigating substance use, the weight of adolescence, a major life transition, or a season of life that feels stuck, my hope is to create a safe space where you can speak openly, feel understood, and move toward a healthier way forward. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Arizona, Tennessee, and South Dakota.

I know that starting therapy can feel a little uncomfortable, especially if you are used to being the one who holds everything together. My goal is to make the process feel welcoming, supportive, and real. I want you to feel like you can come in, take a breath, and be yourself. I work with adults who are navigating stress, anxiety, life transitions, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, and the emotional weight that can come from difficult experiences. My approach is warm, honest, and collaborative. We will talk through what is going on, make sense of the patterns that may be getting in your way, and work toward changes that feel realistic for your life. I do not believe therapy has to feel stiff or overly clinical. There is room for reflection, hard conversations, growth, and yes, even laughter. You do not have to have the perfect words or a clear plan before you begin. Just come as you are, and we can take it from there... together.

Hello! I'm Rebecca. In my more than 10 years as a counselor, I have been humbled by the experiences of my clients. Choosing to seek counseling is hard. It means being vulnerable with a stranger to say, "I need help," and, "I can't fix this by myself." I would like to guide you on your journey to healing. I help my clients through the difficult and emotional process of healing relationships and overcoming the challenges of life in all its stages.

At the heart of my work is a core philosophy: no one knows you better than you.

My client-centered approach blends experiential, trauma-informed, neurological perspectives alongside philosophical wisdom traditions that honor natural flow, personal responsibility, compassionate awareness, and mindful presence. I believe therapy thrives when it’s collaborative and stigma-free. Each session is shaped to your needs, not a template. Alongside traditional counseling, I bring Ketamine-assisted therapy and Brainspotting into the session, offering meaningful tools for exploration and lasting change.

I work with couples to learn to address conflict, learn new skills, and learn how to live lives together. I think of counseling as a process where you and I build a relationship and work together to address whatever issues are impacting you. I'm a holistic counselor, meaning that I will help you explore multiple aspects of your life, including how you engage socially, how you think about situations, how you manage or express your emotions, your behaviors and skills, the quality of your interactions with family and friends, and other areas.

I am a Tennessee licensed therapist with more than 12 years of professional experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges, transitions, and unexpected changes. My experience includes grief and loss, parenting concerns, anger and emotional regulation, relationship and family challenges, stress, and adjusting to change. I believe therapy should provide a safe, supportive space where you can openly share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.

Together, we can slow things down, explore what you are experiencing, recognize your strengths, identify patterns that may no longer serve you, and develop practical strategies for moving forward. My approach is warm, collaborative, and individualized to your needs and goals. Reaching out for support can feel uncertain, especially when you are accustomed to handling things on your own.
