As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I take a holistic approach to therapy, recognizing that mental health is influenced by every aspect of your life—your relationships, physical well-being, environment, values, and personal goals. Whether you're a student-athlete striving to perform at your highest level or a professional navigating the demands of a busy career, I provide a supportive space where you can step away from the pressure and focus on yourself. My style is warm, collaborative, and practical. Together, we'll address challenges such as anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, performance concerns, and relationship issues while building resilience, confidence, and effective coping skills.

My goal is to help you thrive both personally and professionally by supporting your mental, emotional, and overall well-being so you can perform at your best and live a balanced, meaningful life.

Hello, my name is Les Parker, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) and National Certified Counselor (NCC). I provide telehealth therapy to clients throughout Tennessee and work with children, adolescents, and adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, relationship challenges, and stress-related concerns. I believe therapy should be a safe, supportive space where you can be yourself without judgment. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, helping you better understand your experiences, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful change in your life. I utilize evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, and Internal Family Systems (IFS). These approaches can help address anxiety, depression, trauma, negative self-beliefs, emotional overwhelm, and patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Many of the clients I work with appear to be functioning well on the outside while struggling internally with worry, self-doubt, emotional pain, or unresolved experiences from the past. Others come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges and wanting a better understanding of themselves and their relationships. My goal is to help clients gain insight, build resilience, improve emotional well-being, and move toward a life that feels more connected to their values and goals. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply looking to grow and heal, I am committed to meeting you where you are and supporting you throughout the process. Taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult, but you do not have to navigate life’s challenges alone. I look forward to helping you move toward lasting healing and personal growth.

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.

They describe feeling more hopeful, more connected, and better equipped to live in alignment with their values. Witnessing these shifts- seeing clients move from pain and self-doubt to resilience and empowerment- is at the heart of why I do this work.

I have over 10 years of experience as a mental health therapist. I primarily work with individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and family or relationship difficulties. Many clients seek treatment because they feel overwhelmed, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or unsure how to manage the challenges they’re facing. My approach is structured and evidence‑based. I focus on helping you understand the factors contributing to your symptoms and developing clear, practical strategies for change. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness‑based interventions to support emotional regulation, improve coping skills, and build healthier behavioral patterns. Accountability is an important part of the work we do together. I will support you, but I will also provide direct feedback and encourage consistent follow‑through on the changes you identify as important. Progress requires active participation, and I work best with clients who are ready to take responsibility for implementing new skills and strategies between sessions. My Style is: Straightforward – Honest and clear, but always respectful. Practical – Tools that work in everyday life, not just theory. Explorative – Space to reflect deeply in a safe, non-judgmental environment. Encouraging – Support that helps you feel capable, validated, and motivated to change. Accountability-focused – Growth comes from owning your choices and committing to real change. This works well if you are willing to: • Look at your own patterns and find areas for growth and change • Practice new skills between our sessions and create a plan for change • Stay open to feedback, exploration, and trying approaches that fit your unique needs

I’ve been a social worker for 13 years and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for the past eight. I earned my bachelor’s degree in social work from Middle Tennessee State University and my master’s degree from the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to work in a variety of settings, including inpatient mental health, substance use treatment, and individual therapy. In my work with both teenagers and adults, I primarily use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach. My goal is to create a supportive, collaborative space where clients feel understood and empowered to make meaningful changes in their lives.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) providing individual therapy to adults (18+) across Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky. My journey to becoming a therapist began with a deep desire to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. This passion led me to pursue a double major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, giving me insight into both human behavior and the systems that shape our experiences. From there, I earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work, building a strong foundation to guide, support, and empower those I work with. My practice is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed philosophy. I view therapy as a partnership, with your voice and perspective at the center. I draw from approaches such as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), EMDR, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to meet your needs and support meaningful progress.

Minds are designed for thinking and it is human nature to make connections with others. I am dedicated to helping a client slow down to contemplate, explore, and become self-aware of their own needs, personal well-being, interests, strengths and how to relate to others. I will help clients create spaces and opportunities to practice emotional regulation, explore difficult situations, provide therapy for previous history of trauma and loss, and begin or continue a healing journey.
