Cognitive Processing (CPT) Therapists in Tennessee

I am a licensed psychologist working with adults and couples. I specialize in relationship issues, women’s issues, anxiety & depression, and life transitions.

With my extensive experience in psychiatric care, I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma, addiction, and schizophrenia. My journey in mental health began with a deep-seated belief in the power of understanding and empathy. I hold a Doctorate of Osteopathic Medicine from Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tennessee, and completed my psychiatry residency training at Meharry Medical University in Nashville, Tennessee. My medical approach combines evidence-based treatment with holistic, individualized care. I believe in tailoring each treatment plan to meet the unique needs of every patient, fostering a collaborative environment focused on achieving personal treatment goals. *Specialties •Psychiatry •Psychotherapy •Osteopathic Medicine •Holistic Medicine •Mental Health *Conditions treated •Depression •Anxiety •Bipolar disorders •Schizophrenia •PTSD •ADHD •Substance abuse •Eating disorders •OCD •Personality disorders •Addiction •Insomnia •Anger Management •Behavioural Therapy •Trauma and PTSD •LGBTQIA+ •Stress •Grief •Loss •Relationship Issues *Treatment philosophy We pride ourselves on our attentive and customized approach.

My name is Dr. Bryant and I am so excited to meet ya! I treat people virtually in the state of California. I also offer both in person and virtual services in the state of Tennessee. I created As You Are Therapy because therapy can be terrifying! I developed my practice with that in mind- so I could be different. As You Are was created with autonomy in mind. Come sit on my couch (IRL or Virtually) and be as authentically you as you want (literally without judgement). I want you to walk in, feel welcomed, and leave feeling your best. My therapeutic approach matches your vibe and we will build a relationship where comfort and acceptance are priority. Healing is a progression and I cannot wait to see you, as you are!
