Find a licensed online therapist in Mount Carmel, TN

Hello and welcome! I'm glad you made the decision to seek help. You did the right thing. My name is Rick Haynes. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years of experience helping people solve life's problems. I am certain that with time and working together, I can help you as well. Life can be challenging and overwhelming at times making us feel depressed and anxious. Frequently, our mind seems to have a mind of its own, dwelling on worry and indecision. At those times, we suffer emotionally and aren't at our best either at home or work. Our self-esteem takes a hit, and we feel defeated. By reaching out for help, you have taken the first step toward feeling better. I believe a trusting therapeutic relationship forms the basis for someone to share thoughts and emotions and change her or his life for the better. Our sessions will provide you a safe place to explore your emotions and solve problems. Our starting point will be where you are now, work at pace you find comfortable, and discover ways for you to take charge and begin to feel better. You may feel stuck today, but with effort you will get unstuck. I find a combination of interventions from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness exercises, and supportive psychotherapy to be most helpful to clients. In concert, this skill set helps a person change how they think, which changes how they feel and behave. We will set goals and solve problems in this practical hands-on manner. When you are ready, I may ask you to keep a journal of your thoughts. Awareness of your thinking patterns will be essential. If my experience and approach is what you are searching for, I would welcome the opportunity to work with you.

Welcome! My name is Jessica and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Tennessee. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, adoption, trauma, and parenting problems. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. I have worked in a variety of settings including residential, mobile crisis, outpatient, and in-home. I feel like that is important to explain as, it means that I have had experience working with a broad range and severity of clinical issues. I have the most experience working with anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, family/relationship conflicts, life transitions, and complex trauma/abuse. My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral and rational-emotive counseling. At times, I do incorporate mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe in collaboration and working together to establish concrete goals and steps for you to help overcome your current concerns. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

I am Judy Bookman, licensed in Tennessee with over 30 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, career difficulties, executive coaching, & coping with life changes. I have special interests in working with individuals who are facing medical challenges, such as ostomies, amputations, and life-threatening diagnoses; and with people whose size is atypical. I also prefer to work with individuals over age 35. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. For most of us, there is more right with us than there is wrong. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support, empower, and sometimes guide you in that journey. My mantra is, "For something to change, you have to do something different." I tend to be direct, but not directive, in my work. I also believe that most therapeutic work is done outside the counseling session, through homework and tracking emotions and behaviors. My commitment is to work with you in my best professional capacity to promote your growth and healing.

Christian counseling is available upon request, and I provide culturally sensitive care to clients from diverse backgrounds. During our first session, we will explore what brings you to therapy, discuss your concerns, and begin identifying goals for our work together.

I am licensed in Tennessee with three years of professional therapy experience, but my work helping people in crisis began long before that. Before becoming a therapist, I spent 25 years as a board-certified paramedic, responding to emergencies where trauma, addiction, and mental health struggles were often at the forefront. I also served 10 years in the USAF, where I witnessed firsthand the toll that high-stress environments take on the mind and body. I have experience helping clients navigate addiction recovery, trauma, abuse, anger management, and bipolar disorder, as well as working with those struggling with depression. I believe that you are the expert of your own story and that within you are strengths you may not even realize yet—strengths that will help you overcome life’s challenges. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I know how hard it can be to reach out, but you don’t have to do this alone. I am here to support and walk alongside you in your healing journey.

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!

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals, couples, and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, parenting stress, communication difficulties, trauma, and feelings of being stuck or overwhelmed.
