If your mind won’t slow down, you’re constantly overthinking, or you feel stuck in the same exhausting patterns; you’re not alone. Anxiety and depression can show up in ways that are hard to explain but very real to live with. In therapy, we focus on understanding what’s going on beneath the surface and building tools that help you feel more grounded and in control in everyday life, not just during sessions.
Hi, I’m Ivorie, an LCSW in Tennessee with 8 years of experience providing therapy in schools and private practice. I’ve worked with kids, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, stress, and overwhelming life transitions. My school-based background shaped my practical, down to earth approach: meeting people where they are, breaking things down clearly, and helping them apply what we discuss outside of session.
My style is warm, supportive, and honest. I strive to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and comfortable showing up as you are. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, connect the dots, and find approaches that work for your real life.

My role is to provide a supportive, collaborative environment where clients can gain insight, build on their strengths, and develop practical tools to overcome challenges.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 10+ years of experience working across outpatient therapy, in-home services, and telehealth settings. I currently work with adults who are navigating anxiety, stress, and life transitions and are looking for a supportive, grounded space to better understand themselves and move forward with clarity.
My approach is collaborative and integrative, drawing from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, ACT, attachment-based therapy, and solution-focused techniques. I focus on helping clients develop practical coping skills while also exploring deeper patterns related to relationships, identity, and emotional well-being.
Many of the individuals I work with are high-functioning but feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from the direction they want their life to take. In therapy, we work together to create more stability, self-understanding, and alignment with personal values and goals.
For clients who desire it, I also offer faith-based counseling and can integrate spiritual beliefs into the therapeutic process as part of healing and growth.

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.

Hello there!
I believe that a person can change. I also beleive that each person deserves to feel heard and respected. My goal for you is to feel as though you can work through your issues and learn to manage your life, be content with who you are, and be happy. I work with individuals to remediate any number of issues in their lives, to make decisions, and to manage difficult cognitive or emotional experiences. 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 believe that we all have untapped resources, both internal and external, that we can use to make our lives better.
In terms of my background, I have worked in non-profit and two private practice environments. I have also served as a faculty member in clinical mental health counseling programs since 2011. I train future generations of counselors to work with people.
I hold several licenses and certifications. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor as well as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Tennessee. I am also a Qualified Supervisor in Florida. I have published several manuscripts, a book on the assessment and treatment of trauma and I have current works in press. conventions.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Austin Peay State University and a Master of Science in Mental Health Counseling from Capella University. I’m licensed in North Carolina (LCMHC), Tennessee (LPC), Kentucky (LPCC-S), and Georgia (LPC).
Throughout my career, I’ve learned that there is always more to a person’s story than what we first see. I bring that understanding to each session, listening with compassion, curiosity, and respect.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, burnout, or a life transition, you don’t have to sort through it alone. My approach is warm and supportive, with honest conversations and thoughtful challenges. I’ll meet you with understanding while encouraging accountability as you grow. Together, we’ll identify what’s within your control, strengthen emotional regulation, and build practical tools you can use outside of sessions to improve daily life and support lasting change.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
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.
