Hello! My name is Autumn and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 9 years of experience providing therapy services. I have worked in a wide range of therapeutic settings including: private practice, outpatient, and school-based. I work with clients affected by depression, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, lack of motivation, life transitions, family conflicts, and relationship challenges. I was born and raised in Orange County, California, and currently reside in Nashville, Tennessee. I received an undergraduate degree in Psychology and a Master's degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California. I use a client-centered approach. This means that I begin where you are and view you as the experts on your life. It also means that you determine the direction and depth of therapy. I primarily use evidenced-based techniques, including: cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. However, based on your needs/presenting problems, I may also incorporate attachment-based therapy and psychodynamic therapy. I would describe my style as warm, real, and supportive. For me, the therapeutic relationship is important. I want you to not only feel comfortable with me but also to trust me. Therapy requires one to be vulnerable, which doesn’t happen if there isn’t a good rapport and therapeutic alliance. Collaboration is also important. Together we will work on establishing goals and steps for you to help overcome your current problems. Outside of my work as a therapist, I enjoy playing soccer, watching sports, reading, cooking, spending time with my husband and children, and traveling to new places. Thank you for taking the time to learn about me! I look forward to helping you in any way I can!

Hi, I’m Monica, a licensed therapist and emotional clarity coach offering online therapy across Tennessee. For over a decade, I’ve supported adults navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, family dynamics, trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity shifts, and life transitions. If you’ve been feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward, you don’t have to figure it out alone. Therapy offers a space to explore what’s underneath the surface and create meaningful change from the inside out. My approach is holistic, integrative, and trauma-informed. That means we won’t only focus on fixing problems, we're going to explore your experiences with compassion and curiosity, supporting your mind, body, and emotional world. Depending on your needs and comfort level, I may draw from tools like mindfulness, somatic practices, CBT, Brainspotting, or inner child work to help you reconnect with yourself and feel more grounded. At the heart of my work is the belief that every challenge holds a deeper invitation to know yourself more fully, to relate more intentionally, and to live in alignment with what matters most to you. Together, we’ll create a safe, supportive space where you can process what’s been weighing on you, build emotional clarity, and begin living with more confidence, calm, and connection. If you’re ready to begin this next chapter of your healing, I’d be honored to walk with you. I currently have morning sessions available.

I'm pleased to introduce myself to you. I'm Deborah Richardson, LCSW, but most people call me "Deb". All of my life I've had people tell me things in confidence. When you're a minor, that can be a little scary at times; but that's the beginning of a therapist. Now I know it's scarier for the person who has a secret that needs to be told. I didn't set out to be a therapist. I thought I'd be an administrator in a social services agency until I realized I can't balance a Profit and Loss Statement because I have numbers dyslexia. You see, my mind isn't perfect. Like everyone, there are many things I can't do well. Then I found myself covering for a full-time therapist and suddenly I found my joy, and I've continued to find it everyday for forty-plus years. Along the way I picked up two husbands, two daughters, a dozen pets, and thousands of clients. I divorced one husband, buried another, watched two little girls fly away, and now I wait for grandchildren. I also completed a teaching degree followed by a master's degree in social work from The University of Tennessee. Then there's my fur-baby, the ten pound Shih Tzu Amanda-Grace, who was the office pet therapist when I saw clients face-to-face. She became very depressed when we stopped having clients in the office: laying around, not eating or playing. She came to life again when she discovered YouTube videos of cats, dogs, and talking birds. She's happiest, though, when hearing your voices on my speakers. Don't worry, she's the most ethical therapist there is. Everything is totally confidential with Gracie. Over the course of four decades I've worked with all ages from many walks of life. I've worked in-patient, out-patient, a nursing home, a group-home, and a prison. I did forensic psychiatry for fifteen years and private practice for twenty-four. I've used whatever therapeutic techniques worked for an individual. We've walked in the sunshine, listened to music, painted emotions, and written about heartache. We've read "The Giving Tree", watched "Attack on Titan", and sang "It's Not Easy Being Green". Through my professional work experience, I've learned that using a lot of professional jargon isn't as important as remembering someone's birthday, and keeping it real is synonymous with empathy. I found that "normal" is very broad and "average" is very small. Acceptance of one's self is harder to do than acceptance of others, but judgments comes quickly and punishments even swifter. I find that many people believe life is a yellow brick road with a pot of gold at the end, or perhaps Elton John playing piano. Either way, it's a journey they hope for but never think they can take. I believe life can be a yellow brick road, if that's what you want, but all roads have pot holes no matter where they lead or what color they are. My job is to teach each client how to fill their pot holes, or build a bridge, or knock-down a wall, or mend a broken heart for themselves. What I do isn't as important as who you are at the end of this journey together. I hope you will join me at Better Help to travel your road, where ever it goes, safely and in peace.

Welcome! I believe therapy can be a powerful tool for real change, healing, and personal growth. My goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move forward in your life. Life can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you’re working through stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, you don’t have to face it alone. I work alongside my clients to help them build practical coping skills, gain insight, and rediscover the strengths they already have within them. I work with adults ages 18 and up and strive to create a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can openly explore your thoughts and emotions. I support clients facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, and life changes, always focusing on helping you move toward the goals that matter most to you. My approach combines several evidence-based therapies, including EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Person-Centered Therapy. EMDR can be especially effective for processing trauma, while CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thought patterns. Person-Centered Therapy focuses on building self-awareness and personal growth. I also take a strengths-based approach, helping clients recognize their resilience and develop tools that support long-term well-being. With over 26 years of experience in the mental health field and 10 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-MHSP), I bring both professional expertise and genuine compassion to my work. My passion is helping people heal, grow, and build lives that feel meaningful and fulfilling. If you're ready to take the next step toward change, I would be honored to support you on that journey.
