Therapists licensed in Tennessee

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Knoxville, TN and am licensed in California. I received my masters degree from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for the past five years in community mental health. I feel it is important to create a safe, judgement free environment where clients can openly share experiences and address intimate details of life.

It's often difficult to know what you want and to pursue what you want. Especially, if broken patterns and negative family cycles are making you feel stagnant. There is an excitement that comes from building your own self-assurance and confidence as you stand securely in the story you want to live. Sometimes we wait to change our story because we don't feel ready. My hope is that we can all have the wisdom and courage to explore ourselves with compassion so that we can better love ourselves and love others. Let's create a foundation that allows us to live balanced personally, professionally, and relationally.

As a therapist, I understand that seeking help can be a difficult and courageous decision; but it is also the first step towards change and growth. With a compassionate and collaborative approach, I am committed to helping my clients navigate through their challenges and reach their full potential. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression ,or any other mental health issue, I am here to provide a safe and supportive space for you to heal and thrive.

I'm Robyn Richardson, and my passion for this work runs deep. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience, I've had the privilege of walking alongside children, teens, adults, and families through some of their toughest moments. My heart is especially with those healing from trauma—whether you're a survivor of abuse, navigating recovery, or working to break cycles of generational pain. I understand that, for many of my clients, privacy, discernment, and a truly bespoke experience are non-negotiable. My practice is intentionally designed to provide a discreet, elevated environment where you can be authentically yourself, away from outside pressures and expectations. I know that asking for help can feel vulnerable, especially if you've been let down before or spent years learning to manage on your own. But you deserve a space where you can finally exhale. A space where your story is held with care, your pain is taken seriously, and your capacity to heal is never in doubt.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, ADHD and neurodivergence, chronic illness or pain, grief and loss, trauma, relationship concerns, self-esteem, stress, and life transitions. My approach to therapy is collaborative, individualized, and grounded in real conversation. I believe therapy should be a space where you can explore what you are experiencing without feeling judged or pressured to have everything figured out. In our work together, we may look at patterns in your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and behaviors, while also considering how past and present experiences have shaped the way you see yourself and the world around you. I also help clients identify their strengths, values, interests, and goals so that therapy is not only about what is difficult, but also about building confidence, understanding yourself more fully, and creating a life that feels meaningful to you.

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’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.

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.

You’re used to handling a lot. Whether it’s your career, your relationships, or being the person others rely on, you’ve learned how to push through—even when it’s exhausting. But at some point, pushing through stops working. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, and relationship patterns—especially when life looks “together” on the outside but feels overwhelming or unsustainable underneath. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable, and self-aware, yet find themselves stuck in cycles like overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from themselves or others. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and attachment-based work. In our sessions, we’ll look at both the deeper patterns shaping your experiences and the practical strategies that help you feel better day-to-day. Clients often come to therapy wanting relief from constant stress or mental overload. Over time, they develop a clearer understanding of themselves, stronger boundaries, and the ability to respond to challenges with more focus and confidence. I’m active and engaged in the therapy process. I won’t just sit back and listen. I help you connect the dots, notice patterns in real time, and build tools that actually translate into your daily life. I bring 5 years of experience in community mental health, working with children, adolescents, and adults. Clients often describe me as calm, steady, and easy to talk to—while also helping them move forward in meaningful ways.

I have dedicated more than 30 years of my life to the helping profession of Social Work. I have worked tirelessly to advocate for the poor, elderly, disabled and those struggling with substance use and mental health challenges. I prefer to be in the present, listen to the client and partner with them to come up with a plan to meet their unique set of challenges and opportunities, not just just meet short term goals but make therapy a way to teach long term ways of coping that aid in meeting challenges in the future and not dependent on the therapist but through inner strengths that are fostered in therapy as ways to build up self-esteem, cultural pride and self worth.
