Ace Glaspy
Hello, and welcome to my corner of BetterHelp. My name is Ace Glaspy, and I am a licensed mental health counselor in Tennessee. I have had the esteemed opportunity to work in the mental health field for over 17 years with individuals from various walks of life, backgrounds, and cultures. Since becoming a counselor, I have strived to help others shine a light on the roots of their struggles, and write the life story they want to live. Life can be challenging and overwhelming, and I believe we are all trying to find our purpose and place in this world. As a counselor, I believe my clients are the authors of their stories and want to help them write it. When not walking alongside my clients in their journey, I can often be found reading a good book (I am a little bit of a fantasy nut), playing with my kids (the lights in my life that overcome all kinds of darkness), or trying to write one of the many books I have flapping around in my head. Using integrative counseling, I utilize various, evidence and scientifically based methods such as Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral therapy, and more to help my clients overcome their past and turn complex situations and decisions into a manageable journey. Life can be hard, but I truly believe anyone can find joy and contentment along their path. My schedule is as follows, with some variation depending on other circumstances: I am in my virtual office Mon, Tues, Sat and Sun. On those days, you can expect responses within a brief time period (sometimes immediately, depending on what I am doing) or in between other clients. Tuesday evening and Wed-Fri, I spend time with my family, and may respond, but it will most likely have time in between responses that I can't really identify surety. But I will respond within 6-8 hours most of the time, even on those days.
Megumi Britt
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in Tennessee, w/ almost 15 years of experience. I have worked with adolescents and adults with various concerns including trauma victimization, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, adjustment issues and substance use relapse prevention. I also have experiences working with clients from juvenile and criminal courts, correctional facilities and residential programs, assisting them to achieve their goals and life changes. My therapy style is based on a strengths-based and client-centered approach thru cognitive-behavioral therapy. I believe that everyone already has some qualities and strengths which could be used to begin making desired changes in life. I believe in treating clients with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to start the process of making changes in life and speaking to a therapist could be challenging at times. If/when you are experiencing difficulties/stress and your mental health is affected, I will be here to assist and support you. I look forward to working with you!
Alexander Haney
Hello! My name is Alexander Haney and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Specialist and training in evidence-based practices. I primarily use Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Exposure Response Prevention which focus on the unique needs of the individual. During my 5 years of experience, I have specialized experience in several areas including depression, OCD/anxiety, stress, and couples counseling. I enjoy working with individuals who are new to the therapy process and who are willing to work toward goals. Please consider, this process is NOT a one-off session - it is a course of treatment whereby you need to be committed to change and healing towards a happy more grounded and integrated future. Therapy is something you engage in, not something you receive and while like most things in life that are incredibly difficult to do, they tend to be the most fulfilling. My hope is that by the time you have gone through this process, you will have a really clear understanding of exactly who you are, what your struggles are, what you need and what you want while becoming empowered to go out and build a brilliant life worth living. Whilst integrated therapy works far quicker than long term analysis or counselling, I can offer both long-term and short-term therapy depending on your preferences and needs. Some clients like to continue therapy for a long time to continue investing in themselves and their own personal development. Whereas others work on their current issues for a time, then drop down to less frequent sessions, or simply return as and when needed. I consider what I do to be a tremendous honor and privilege to be apart of your journey forward, wherever that may be. Talk with you shortly! Alex

Anna Owens
Greetings! I am a trauma-informed and evidence-based licensed professional psychotherapist and mental health service provider across the lifespan for over 11 years. I'm also a nurse practitioner. Recently, I decided I wanted more of a work/life balance, which led me to Betterhelp. I work with adults, couples and adolescents and am experienced in an array of issues and modalities that are personalized for each client. I am also a specialist in narcissistic abuse and navigating toxic relationships. You are the expert of your story and I'll partner with you to help navigate and hold the space. In therapy, you will gain inner strength, learn new coping mechanisms and develop tools to navigate your life. You'll have to do some sitting with uncomfortable feelings, taking inventory of where you are and where you'd like to be, and facing difficult thoughts and emotions. Therapy isn't for the faint of heart. A safe, non-judgmental environment is imperative. Once this process begins, you'll most likely find therapy fun and challenging as we work together to curate your life. Curating uses the garden analogy. It can solely apply to your inner-world, but it's usually a reflection of your life as a whole. We identify the emotions, situations, relationships and experiences that no longer serve you. It's about gaining inner self worth, setting boundaries, pouring into yourself, and evolving. The exceptional thing about curating is that together, we will open up new space in your life for yourself or for new experiences to grow. The most important thing in the beginning is having the empathy, guidance, and support you need to overcome. The goal is never just to resolve, but to use the resolution phase to grow. In my opinion, there are no coincidences. If you landed on my page, and you're still here, there's a reason! I realize how difficult this first step is but you did it, and that speaks volumes. I would love to partner with you, please reach out!
