I am a licensed professional counselor and a mother of two grown children and one grandson. Teaching was my first career and counseling is my second career. I am an empathetic, client-centered therapist who is action-oriented. I teach my clients how to discover alternatives and solutions to their problems. I want my clients to feel that I am really helping them with targeted treatments, and I want them to feel extremely at ease with me and be able to trust me. My goal is for them to improve over time and not feel that they are wasting their time in therapy.

I am a therapist who enjoys building a relationship with my clients by finding how to best understand each other. We may not share a background, but practicing curiosity from a position of genuine interest helps me better understand the people around me and form rapid connections. I believe knowledge and language have power so that the way we think and the information we use to think help us view what we think as changeable and adjust it to be more helpful.

Hi there! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with six years of experience working across a variety of mental health settings. Originally from Belzoni, Mississippi, I bring both professional expertise and a strong sense of community into my work. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new restaurants, traveling, and spending quality time with family and friends. These experiences help me stay grounded and connected, which I carry into my counseling practice. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and nurturing environment where clients feel supported as they learn, heal, and grow at their own pace. I believe that one of the most important aspects of counseling is the relationship between therapist and client, and I am committed to building a trusting, collaborative connection with each person I work with.

I bring seven years of experience treating clients from a relational perspective. My goal from the time we meet is to connect with you as a human first and therapist second. This means I see you as an individual to build a relationship of trust and collaboration with, rather than as a list of problems to solve. As a trauma-informed therapist, I understand the importance of giving you agency over your treatment and life decisions. No one knows you better than you know yourself, so we set goals together, implement interventions at your pace, and maintain open communication throughout the process.

I have one main intention for all clients with whom I work and that is to reduce suffering. Suffering takes a lot of forms, from struggling with discernment, overwhelm, thoughts that cycle and cycle and cycle throughout our minds...grief of something we've had or something we want to have -- and so much more. My approach to treatment is down-to-earth, nonjudgmental, and compassionate; and is leveraged with a sense of practicality and directiveness.

I’m Dr. Katherine (Katie) Crawford, a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience that combines direct clinical practice, teaching future social workers, and trauma-informed program evaluation. I help adults navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity, resilience, and self-compassion. Many of the people I work with are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, or major life transitions—especially when they feel stuck in old patterns or disconnected from themselves. My approach is grounded and evidence-based, drawing from CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and attachment-focused work. In therapy, we work together to better understand your emotions, build inner stability, and reconnect with what matters most. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to move forward—not by becoming someone new, but by returning to the truest version of yourself.

Hello and welcome. It means a lot that you’ve taken this step. Every person carries such a unique story shaped by resilience and strength. Sometimes, those stories can feel heavy or overwhelming, and we may find ourselves needing a space to breathe and process. My hope is to create a safe and supportive environment where you feel heard and empowered to heal. In our work together, I take a compassionate and collaborative approach that meets you where you are, supporting you in working through current challenges while building toward the future that is possible. I typically practice in the Solution-Focused umbrella, incorporating Narrative Therapy into my work. Solution-Focused Therapy helps you identify your strengths and move toward your goals; while Narrative Therapy encourages exploring one’s personal story from the past, separating the individual from their problems, and envisioning how you want your story to continue. My experience consists of helping clients with family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, mood disorders, anxiety, and depression. I have taught parenting classes for many years, which allowed me to help parents strengthen their relationships with their children and build more confident, nurturing connections. These experiences have deepened my understanding of the challenges families and individuals face, and reinforced my commitment to supporting each person’s unique journey toward healing and growth. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, with 13 of those years dedicated to being a therapist. I am licensed to provide therapy to individuals across the state of Tennessee. It’s truly an honor to support people as they reconnect with themselves, rediscover hope, and move toward healing. Supporting others through life’s challenges is deeply fulfilling work, and I am grateful for the opportunity to be present with you on your journey.

As an American Family Therapist, I work from a systemic perspective, focusing on the entire family unit rather than just the individual. My goal is to help families uncover and understand deep-rooted patterns and issues that interfere with healthy communication and connection. Through this process, I support each member in developing more effective ways of relating, resolving conflict, and fostering emotional safety with the family system. I primarily use Dialectical Behavior Therapy and view my work through that lens. This means focusing on mindfulness, expanding tolerance for discomfort, increasing effectiveness in relationships and strengthening emotional regulation. When challenges arise in therapy, I often find that the root of the issue can be addressed through one of these core areas. For clients struggling with post-traumatic stress injuries-particularly common in military populations-I also incorporate Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) to help them reframe and work through trauma-related beliefs. My approach is structured, evidence-based, and tailored to the needs of each individual or family.

I help individuals who feel stuck in deep-rooted anxiety, depression, or trauma find lasting relief through an integrative body-centered approach by combining the rapid neuroplasticity of Ketamine assisted therapy with specialized trauma tools like EMDR and brainspotting. I create a safe healing container that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. I provide a caring, compassionate, and collaborative approach. The synergy between EMDR, brainspotting, and KAP accelerates healing, moving beyond talk therapy to access deep-seated somatic memories and subconscious habits, and is aimed at rapid, lasting transformation. Trauma manifests in several ways. Re-experiencing, avoidance, hyperarousal, performance anxiety, emotional numbness hinder total wellness and relationship quality.

Hi im Greg Kirkham! Im a licensed therapist, practicing for over 21 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!

In the words of Virginia Satir, sometimes we prefer the certainty of misery over the misery of uncertainty. When people wrestle with shame and fear, they often adopt patterns of controlling, avoiding, and numbing as coping mechanisms. We cling to what is familiar and comforting, even when it’s leading to harmful habits, deeper isolation, or burnout. You are not meant to bear this burden alone. Counseling isn't for the broken- it's for the brave. It's the decision to lean into your current pain, allowing you to build the resilience, faith, and freedom you've been searching for.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 14 years of experience helping clients. I am a proud ‘Appalachian-American’ that was born and raised deep in the mountains of Upper Northeast TN. Although many of my personal life experiences are about what one would expect of someone growing up in East TN (cue BBQ ribs & banjo music🪕), my work experience have been vastly different. I have been quite fortunate to get to work with individuals from quite literally all walks of life. I have worked with clients from preschool to post retirement. Thanks to the internet I have been able to help individuals across the globe, from various cultures, diverse religious beliefs, race, gender spectrums, socioeconomic status, etc. One thing I have learned in my work with all of these individuals is that although each of their stories are unique, ultimately, they all seek/want the same core things. I think much of my success in working with a wide assortment of clients is that I attempt to be open, understanding, curious and cultivate a nonjudgmental atmosphere for our sessions. The working relationship between a therapist and their client is a key factor to client’s achieving treatment goals.

You’re used to handling a lot. Whether it’s your career, your relationships, or being the person others rely on, you’ve learned how to push through—even when it’s exhausting. But at some point, pushing through stops working. I work with adults who are navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, and relationship patterns—especially when life looks “together” on the outside but feels overwhelming or unsustainable underneath. Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable, and self-aware, yet find themselves stuck in cycles like overthinking, people-pleasing, or feeling disconnected from themselves or others. My approach is trauma-informed, relational, and grounded in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and attachment-based work. In our sessions, we’ll look at both the deeper patterns shaping your experiences and the practical strategies that help you feel better day-to-day. Clients often come to therapy wanting relief from constant stress or mental overload. Over time, they develop a clearer understanding of themselves, stronger boundaries, and the ability to respond to challenges with more focus and confidence. I’m active and engaged in the therapy process. I won’t just sit back and listen. I help you connect the dots, notice patterns in real time, and build tools that actually translate into your daily life. I bring 5 years of experience in community mental health, working with children, adolescents, and adults. Clients often describe me as calm, steady, and easy to talk to—while also helping them move forward in meaningful ways.

My name is Dr. LeChey Hibbler, licensed clinical psychologist, and I help individuals acquire the tools needed to be the best version of themselves while honoring their authenticity. I have over 8 years of experience providing psychotherapy to individuals who have difficulties managing their symptoms. I have a strong passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion and I treat individuals as people first. I place emphasis on allowing my patients and clients to explore the connection between physical health and emotional well-being, often highlighting the importance of the whole health approach. I see psychotherapy as a means to help people overcome their struggles and begin to live a more present, meaningful, and fulfilling life.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Tennessee rather than a city like Nashville?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Tennessee. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Tennessee from Memphis to Knoxville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Tennessee.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Trauma and PTSD?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Trauma and PTSD, is filtering therapists in Tennessee that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

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.

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.
