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.

Are you stuck? Struggling with big feelings? Trouble focusing and staying organized? Just need someone who is not connected to you in any other way to talk with and bounce things off of? I can help! The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step. It is often difficult to begin the journey of therapy, and I am glad you are considering it. Most people come to therapy hoping to try and fix something in their life that does not seem to be working so well. I will work with you to try and discover what is going on and how we can work together to help you be the best self you can be. I believe in focusing on building small, easy-to-learn coping skills and taking consistent baby steps towards your goals. My name is Jason Fox, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation in Tennessee (LPC, MHSP). I have 19 years of experience in mental health. I practice primarily cognitive behavioral therapy. I focus on trying to teach people that we need to think and act better first in order to feel better. I have experience working in crisis and crisis supervision. I have seen a lot of different things over the years, and the most important thing to me as a therapist is to meet clients where they are and to have a positive working relationship with them to help them get to where they are going.

You may be managing a demanding career, striving to perform at your best as a student-athlete, or navigating a major life transition while feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or burned out. You do not have to work through these challenges alone. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can step away from outside pressures, focus on yourself, and develop practical strategies for moving forward. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I take a holistic approach to therapy.

Are you feeling stuck and unsure of how to get past symptoms of anxiety, depression or past trauma? It's common to experience mental health-related challenges in life and to get stuck at times. We're not born with a built-in understanding of how to be psychologically healthy, so sometimes it's a good idea to get a little guidance from an unbiased professional. My ideal client is motivated to understand themselves better and to make the necessary adjustments to improve their quality of life.

My name is James Smith. I am a graduate of Florida State University College of Social Work. I lived in FL nearly all of my life, until in 2024 I had a chance to live closer to family in TN. My primary practice has been in the medical field, especially working with seniors with dementia and hospice. I currently work with dialysis patients. I am currently licensed in FL and TN and open for new patients. I believe that most individuals needing therapy already have the answers that they seek and need a trusted individual to listen to their concerns. When problems arise, I help you to navigate through your ideas, provide feedback and help you find success. I enjoy spending time with my family, training for and completing triathlons and working for better handwriting tools for lefties.

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 work with women who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in unhealthy relationship patterns, or disconnected from their sense of self. Many of the women I support struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, people-pleasing, feeling responsible for everyone else’s needs while neglecting their own, and navigating challenges related to relationships, intimacy, and sexual health. Therapy with me is a space to slow down, gain clarity, and understand the patterns that keep showing up in your life. Together, we’ll work to strengthen your sense of self, improve communication and boundaries, and develop coping strategies that support long-term emotional well-being—not just short-term relief. If you’re looking for support that goes beyond symptom management and helps you create meaningful, lasting change, you don’t have to do that work alone.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
