"Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone" -- Fred Rogers. This is exactly what the therapeutic relationship provides.   I have over 23 years of clinical experience working with people who have felt like you may be feeling today. Whether you struggle with an eating disorder to manage your emotions, feel unable to communicate with your loved-ones, or are haunted by past hurts, I want to help you along your path to healing. Taking the next step is brave and it does not have to be difficult. I offer a variety of in-person and telehealth appointment options throughout the week including evenings and Saturdays. Please visit my website or reach out by email to schedule a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation.

Hello! I'm Kimberly Patterson, a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner based in Memphis, TN. With extensive education in nursing and mental health from esteemed institutions like East Tennessee State University and the University of North Alabama, I've cultivated a deep understanding and passion for mental healthcare. I currently partner with A Piece of Peace Psychiatry, PLLC where I focus on virtual assessments, diagnosing various mental conditions, and managing treatment plans for adults. Over the years, I've gained valuable experience at TriState Community Health Center and Unity Psychiatric Care, providing both in-office and telehealth assessments and supporting clients on their journey to mental wellness. My career began as a registered nurse, caring for a diverse range of patients, from those with mental health challenges to new mothers and infants. My goal has always been to provide compassionate, comprehensive care, ensuring that every client receives the best possible support tailored to their unique needs. When you choose me as your healthcare provider, rest assured that you'll receive personalized care backed by years of experience and a genuine commitment to your mental well-being. I'm here to support you every step of the way in your mental health journey. TREATMENT PHILOSOPHY: My treatment philosophy centers around compassionate, patient-centered care. I believe in building strong relationships with my patients, listening to their concerns, and partnering with them to develop tailored treatment plans. My focus is on mental health, specifically addressing a range of mental illnesses through thorough assessments and follow-up evaluations. I emphasize open communication, ensuring patients feel understood and supported throughout their journey. With a diverse background in treating different populations, including geriatrics and high-risk cases, I utilize evidence-based practices to promote healing. Ultimately, my goal is to empower patients, guiding them toward emotional well-being and improved quality of life.

I am a pre-licensed Mental Health Counselor employed at Cedar Tree Wellness Center. The kind of therapy I provide is called Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). CBT operates on the principle that our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are all linked. What I do in therapy is work with the client to challenge the irrational/negative thoughts that lead to mental conditions such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, etc. So many of us believe that we can solve our problems on your own, sometimes we can. However, there are many of us who require assistance, and that is nothing to be ashamed of. Needing help and asking for it does not make someone weak, it makes them stronger than most.

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

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!  

I work with adolescent and adult individuals, couples and families around issues of trauma, anxiety, relational distress, communication, and boundaries. With an open, non-judgmental relational approach, I foster empowerment within my clients. My approach is based on the belief that you are naturally intelligent and resourceful. My role is to help bring out the skills, creativity, and strengths within yourself. Through self-examination, self-compassion, and integration you can have more freedom, balance and joy in your life which can lead to greater clarity, satisfaction, and peace.

Hello and welcome! I have been a Psychotherapist for over 10 years and I absolutely love that I finally followed my heart and true calling. I wholeheartedly enjoy watching people heal. I'm honored to be a part of the caring team at Hope Evergreen, LLC. Call 901.571.8911 and schedule an appointment. Come meet our precious emotional support therapy doggie, Ginny!
