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.

Life may feel overwhelming, confusing, scary and lonely at times; but you are not alone. It takes courage to seek out connection and support in therapy. I value the bravery and vulnerability that it takes to reach out for support, especially when life has caused pain or hurt in the past. Within the therapeutic process, I hope that you are able to find and learn to love your authentic self, so that you can find joy and connection within yourself and your relationships. I’m humbled and honored to walk alongside you in your journey towards healing and wholeness, providing empathy, encouragement, feedback and tools along the way. Relationships heal. Therapy is a safe place to learn what healthy and secure relationships feel like for you in your life. I am clinically trained in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) for the treatment of trauma and acute stress disorders. I enjoy working with young adults, middle- aged and geriatric adults that are seeking to learn skills, change behavior, feel better and heal in a secure, empathetic and trusting therapeutic relationship. I utilize a person-centered theory in my therapeutic approach and always center treatment on what each client needs, whether they are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief or loss, low self-esteem, trauma or another difficulty. I look forward to the opportunity to help you overcome these difficulties and create the positive changes you want to make for your future!
