Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) Therapists in Tennessee

Hello! I'm Jenae - therapist, coffee enthusiast, and believer in you! I’m a real human being that genuinely cares about helping people make sense of what’s been too heavy for too long. I help people work through trauma, anxiety, and depression so they can stop feeling like they are living in survival mode and start feeling present again. I work with people to untangle the pain, fear, or sadness that’s been running their lives. Therapy with me isn’t about “fixing” you. You’re not broken. It’s about helping your mind and body finally feel safe enough to start healing.

Hello, I am Ben Leven, an integrative psychiatric nurse practitioner based in Tennessee. My mission is to empower adolescents and adults facing challenges such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, insomnia, and mood disorders to regain control over their lives through tailored, integrative treatments designed to address the root causes of their struggles. My journey into psychiatric care evolved from personal life experience that ignited my passion for providing compassionate care. I am passionate about working on lifestyle changes with you, such as exploring aspects like exercise, dietary choices, supplements, or sleep habits, all with the aim of enhancing your life without resorting to excessive medication. My initial experience in a traditional mental health clinic highlighted the limitations of an insurance-based model and the time constraints that hinder the provider-patient relationship. Along with the desire to offer more comprehensive and holistic treatment options, I founded Restore Psychiatric Care. My primary objective is to elevate your quality of life through the development of a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific symptoms, ultimately leading to a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life. I strive to achieve this with the minimal necessary use of medication while ensuring a swift improvement in your well-being. My practice creates a welcoming and inclusive environment, delivering mental health care that is fully affirming and supportive. To accommodate your preferences, I provide the flexibility of both online and in-person appointments. For new clients living in Tennessee, we can discuss your goals during a free 15 minute call. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I'm Matt! I am a mindfulness- and movement-based therapist for adolescents and young adults.

Hello! My name is Lynn and I have 10 years of experience working with the adult population. I provide individual therapy and over the last 7 years I have had the opportunity to work with adults of varying ages, primarily women who have experienced abusive or toxic relationships, specifically narcissistic abuse. Our understanding of how relationships work originate from our family of origin. We learn attitudes and behaviors from our caregivers and many times these behaviors are toxic, dysfunctional or destructive. I can help with understanding the patterns in your relationships or behaviors that create strife or stress. I focus on mind, body and soul. I use integrative therapies to help you to identify unhealthy thoughts and behaviors and replace them with healthy ones to creating meaningful change and learn to successfully navigate the relationships and interactions with the people in your life. I approach all of life including therapy from a Christian worldview. I would be happy to integrate faith into the counseling process by request. My approaches to therapy primarily includes; Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) some Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), Interpersonal therapy, Solution Focused therapy and recently I have been trained in basic EMDR therapy and FLASH. To learn more about EMDR, go to www.EMDRIA.org. I believe that you are the expert about you. My job is to partner with you and walk along with you through your journey of healing.

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.
