Hi im Greg Kirkham! Im a licensed therapist, practicing for over 20 years. I specialize in treating trauma. Now, you may be saying “but I don’t have trauma!” Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes and is often not recognized as such, but almost always has a significant impact on someone’s overall mental, physical and emotional health. Trauma also presents in many different forms, including struggles with depression, anxiety and anger management. Over my career I have worked with an array of populations, including children/families, juvenile sex offenders, and even convicts. Currently, I serve those who served us as a therapist with the VA in middle TN. Over the past seven years, I’ve seen evidence-based treatments work wonders with PTSD and trauma in our veterans. With GrowTherapy, I’m now able to provide these and other treatments to YOU! Whether you’re not real sure or highly motivated to get help, I’d love to discuss options and see if we’re a good fit! Thanks for reading and congratulations on taking the first step towards a healthier and more fulfilling life!

Hey there, I'm Jenn. I am a licensed clinical social worker and began working as a therapist in 2002. Are you feeling overwhelmed by work, stress from your relationships, family, or parenting? You may be putting on a confident and brave face, but secretly you're overthinking every situation and decision that you make. Life is harder to manage when you're feeling overwhelmed and stressed.

I specialize in working with adults (18+) who are experiencing anxiety, attachment issues, depression, grief/loss, infertility, midlife transitions, parenthood struggles, and perinatal/postpartum mood disorders. My approach to therapy is always client-focused: I believe the relationship between therapist and client is central to reducing distress, increasing self-compassion/understanding, and improving emotional wellness.

Is your worrying, depression, or anger taking over your life? Is the loss of a loved one too painful to cope? Are you trying to find a solution to a damaged marriage or relationship?

You may be wondering, "Am I ready for therapy?" And I say, "Yes!" Therapy may seem scary and for good reason, even the prospect of it can elicit fearfulness—fear of the unknown, of failure, of success, of change, of judgment—these feelings are all valid. Chances are, these same fears are causing disruptions in fundamental areas of your life, providing the impetus behind your decision to seek help in the first place. There is no right or wrong way to do this. My job is to gently guide you toward your own conclusions, so you can better understand and address the emotional and environmental obstacles standing in your way. I know life can be a struggle; it can be painful and difficult. You don’t have to suffer alone. My job is to provide a relaxed, safe, nonjudgmental space to process, explore, and learn. You are the expert on you, and I will follow your lead. Together, we will identify barriers to personal growth and acquire new insights to conquer those barriers! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the states of California, Florida, and Tennessee and a member of the National Association of Social Workers. I acquired my master of social work (MSW) degree from the University of Southern California. Before that, I attended Columbia University and earned a master's degree in journalism. After graduation from USC, I worked in community mental health clinics, specializing in forensic social work and severe co-occurring disorders, including substance use, mood and psychotic disorders. I look forward to working with you!

Do you feel like you're constantly drowning in responsibilities and can't seem to get a handle on things? Do you find yourself putting others' needs before your own, to the point where it's impacting your own well-being? If any of this sounds familiar, I would be glad to work with you to help you regain a sense of balance in your life. Together, we can identify and address the barriers and habits that are holding you back. My approach to treatment is structured and evidence-based, but I also recognize that each person is unique, with their own strengths and challenges. By leveraging your strengths, we can work together to improve your mental health and well-being.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to reach out! Do you ever have those days where things are especially difficult??

Bits and pieces of different models incorporated together tend to have the most benefit, based on the person's needs. I have seen so many great successes! I enjoy supporting the people I work with and going through their journey with them. I am currently licensed in both IL and TN. When I am not in sessions, you will find me hiking with the doggos, road-tripping in the Jeep, and going into "Mom Mode" with my three kids. I look forward to connecting with you :)

Hello! My name is Stacey Shine. Do you feel like you just aren't where you used to be in life? I like to work with clients to get them back to their optimal level of functioning. My goal in therapy is to essentially work myself out of a job. I want to empower you to tackle whatever obstacles you are facing. Therapy with me is very personalized. I like to make it fit whoever my client is. Sometimes therapy is traditional talk therapy while other times it can include art or movement. I think each person has a unique set of needs and my goal is to try and meet those needs as best as I can.

Do you feel like you are spinning in circles, trying to grow but nothing is helping? I love working with people who are struggling with life and want to find a healthier way of being in the world, in your relationships, at work, and in all aspects of life. I balance managing current problems with getting at the root of where these problems are stemming from and processing those so that you can grow into the person you want to be. I blend the symptoms shown by your emotions, thoughts and your body to create a unique approach for you. I integrate mindfulness, cognitive approaches, somatic therapy and if needed, EMDR (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing) to help you navigate past what is holding you back. My main focus at first is to create a safe place for you, where you feel comfortable addressing issues. It is so scary to start therapy, and I want it to feel as easy as possible for you. I am always open to questions and adapting to what would serve you best.

People choose to come to therapy for a variety of reasons. Do you find yourself feeling depressed or overwhelmed? Do you want to worry less and enjoy life more? Do you want to have better control of your emotions? Maybe you’re struggling to have meaningful, lasting relationships. Whatever your reason, I’m here to provide a safe and affirming space for you to explore, learn, and create a new way of approaching the world and relationships. My approach to counseling is collaborative and trauma-informed. I utilize emotion-focused, attachment centered strategies to help people identify how past experiences and relationships influence how they respond to others and the world. I have experience in treating mood disorders, eating disorders, body image concerns, substance use issues, life transitions, relationship issues, and trauma. I believe connection is essential for healing- we never do big things alone! The power of the therapeutic relationship is essential to achieve the change you are looking for. I strive to provide a safe and nonjudgmental space for you to explore life’s challenges.

C. G. Jung once said, "Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside awakes." Life is full of distractions that keep us from paying attention to our own hearts, our own desires, and what really matters. Perhaps you are having difficulty finding the motivation to keep pushing forward. You've lost motivation to put in the work to have the relationships and life you want. You don't even know if it's possible to be happy anymore but you know you can't give up trying to find the light at the end of the tunnel. This is where I come in. You deserve to thrive in this life despite feeling stuck for so long. As a professional with years of experience helping others develop more self-awareness, set boundaries and cultivate a greater sense of meaning and purpose, I'd love to have the opportunity to step into this chapter of your life and help you take back the pen.
