Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee. I received my Masters from East Tennessee State University and have been practicing for the last 16 years. I work with individuals, couples and families to sold. My goal is to equip our clients with the tools and insights they need to take control of their mental health and create the life they desire.

*ONLY accepting female clients at this time * Hello! I'm Jessica Milgrome, a licensed mental health clinician with 10 years of experience, a certified Rehabilitation Counselor and a Nationally Certified Counselor. My approach centers on making therapy the least stressful part of your life. I create a supportive, relaxed environment with a modern, casual style, often incorporating humor. I can direct sessions or simply listen, based on your needs, and appreciate when clients express whether they seek guidance, feedback, or just want to vent. I work with clients facing various concerns, including depression, anxiety, ADHD, and relationship issues like breakups, emotional abuse, narcissistic abuse/trauma and relationship conflicts. I also manage severe mental health conditions such as psychosis. Additionally, I focus on developing interpersonal relationships and provide practical support with job placement and interview skills, aiding career transitions and professional growth. I guide clients in cultivating self-love and forgiveness, believing these are crucial for emotional healing and personal growth. My holistic approach addresses both emotional and practical aspects of life to help achieve balance and fulfillment. To share a bit about myself—I’m a huge fan of stand-up comedy (laughing is life), look forward to Mondays for Spotify's new Discover Weekly playlists, and live by the mantra "When words fail, let the music speak." Plus, I have six dogs! As a therapist, my goal is to help clients become their best selves. Together, we’ll improve self-esteem, identify symptom triggers, develop coping skills, explore psychoeducational materials, enhance family relationships, discuss psychotropic medications, and build a strong sense of self. My counseling style is warm and interactive, treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I combine cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, and rational-emotive counseling, tailoring our dialogue and treatment plan to your unique needs. I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I'm Alisia. I am a licensed therapist with over 20 years of experience of helping adults, teenagers, and children move through pain, loss, anxiety, sadness, and trauma toward a place of hope and healing. I have specific focus on supporting women through life transitions, anxiety and emotionally abusive relationships. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, emotionally disconnected from themselves and others. Whether you are going through a life transition, navigating a difficult relationship, or still carrying the weight of past trauma, you don't have to walk through it alone. Often, the women that I work with feel drained from always putting others first, struggle with self-doubt and people pleasing. I specialize in helping women break free from patterns of codependency, emotional manipulation, or suffering from narcissistic abuse. Our work together can help you rebuild self-trust, set healthy boundaries, and reconnect with who you are and not just who others need you to be. Therapy can be a space where you reclaim your voice and reconnect with your worth. My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma informed. I draw from evidenced based methods like CBT, inner child work, mindfulness and attachment-based therapy. I always tailor therapy to fit your unique story, strengths, and goals. If faith or spirituality is part of your identity, I am happy to incorporate that into our work as well. Healing is possible. You deserve to feel safe, seen, and strong again. Let's talk. I'd be honored to walk with you.

Whether you’re overwhelmed, stuck, or just need someone to talk to, we’ll work through it together.

Hi there! A lot of people think therapy is a one-sided conversation, with little opportunity to experience each other as real people. My clients know that I am as real as it gets! I want to help you achieve your goals, learn more about yourself, and understand how your mind and brain work. While progressing along this path, you will enjoy the process of learning about yourself and perceiving yourself in new ways. My experience is that therapy doesn't need to be painful. I know it can be intimidating to call a therapist, but I hope you will call me and see how I can help you. My background is in neuropsychology, so I enjoy helping people understand how their brains work, in order to find the best way to manage anxiety, depression, and just plain dealing with life!

I view my work as a therapist through a multicultural lens, and I customize my approach depending on the unique needs of every individual I work with. Many people have told me they’ve been frustrated by therapists in the past who sat quietly and provided very little feedback. In response, I’ve developed a forthright, solutions-oriented style of engaging with my clients that encourages them to set goals for themselves and empowers them to work toward them. I also have experience working with clients who prefer a softer, less structured approach, so I can customize the therapy experience to each person.
