Hi! I'm Teresa and I'm really glad you are here.
Many of the people that I work with come in feeling stuck with anxiety, low mood, trouble sleeping or strain in relationships. Some are carrying the weight of past trauma or abuse. Often, they are coping in ways they know aren't healthy or sustainable.
I specialize in working with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma and addiction. I deeply understand how it feels to be unsure of your next move or to feel stuck in your current situation. I will show up for you in a calm, consistent and accepting manner so that therapy becomes a space where you feel safe to be open and honest. Therapy moves at your pace, guided by your goals and needs.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in both North Carolina and Tennessee with 10 years of counseling experience. I received my Master's Degree in Social Work from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and have spent many years working in community behavioral health. My training and my work have shaped me into a clinician that understands a person's environment is as important as their mindset. You will find me to be supportive and an advocate for your complete health.

"We don't have to do it all alone; we were never meant to." – Brené Brown
This belief is at the heart of my work as a therapist. I am passionate about walking alongside my clients as a team, helping them navigate challenges and achieve their goals. Many people share things with me that they have never shared with anyone else, which is why I believe that trust and the therapeutic relationship are the most important foundations of therapy.
I work with individuals ages 10 to 55 and have experience supporting both individuals and families. I am trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Attachment, Self-Regulation and Competency (ARC), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Child-Parent Psychotherapy (CPP) and Motivational Interviewing (MI). My specialty is working with teens and young adults, as I believe this transitional period is critical for personal growth and reaching one’s full potential.
Before becoming a therapist, I served as a firefighter and first responder for over a decade, including combat firefighting tours in Iraq. This background has shaped my deep commitment to resilience, healing, and supporting others through life’s most challenging moments.

However, I incorporate methods from other modalities as necessary to help my clients identify the patterns that cause discomfort and establish healthier habits to replace them—all with a collaborative approach.

Hi. My name is Christine Toler, Chris, and I earned my Ed.S and LPC- MHSP in the state of Tennessee, New Jersey and Delaware. I have been licensed as a Professional Counselor since 2010, and a School Counselor since 2006.
I started being a believer in therapy when it first helped me over forty years ago, (as a child). I thought what a wonderful way to get to the root of the problem... and get rid of it. Since then, I have been working on myself as a client as well as acquiring a licensure to help others, including teens, adults and families. I focus on solution based and non-judgmental cognitive therapy. I believe understanding a problem is not the end of the work. (unfortunately)
The action we take to support a positive change... is what changes lives. And while I have experienced that in some very important areas... I continue to grow... daily. I choose to be transparent about that because I believe it is important to the work that my clients know I understand how it feels to be in their chair.
If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, doubt, guilt, grief, or all of the above, I believe I can help you.

I understand anxiety and depression from the inside, and I bring a grounded, no-judgment approach to every session.
Whether you're facing a major life transition or seeking to learn coping skills, I'm here to walk with you through the process. Healing isn't linear, and I don't expect it to be. Together we'll build coping skills you can actually use in the moment, whether that's through journaling, mindfulness, cognitive exercises, or simply learning to catch the thoughts that used to run the show.
Together, we can identify negative thinking and reshape it in a way that changes how you feel. I can help you challenge negative thoughts and identify more helpful/realistic thoughts. This will help you better enjoy your life because you will view it more positively.
You deserve a life that brings you contentment and joy. Let's work together on this journey of healing.

Hi, I'm Emily.
Something brought you to this website in search of a therapist or counselor. Maybe it was a single event or problem, like a loss of a loved one or a sudden change in job status. Or maybe you've been struggling with a multitude of stressors and are feeling burned out, anxious, depressed, disconnected, and fatigued. What would your life be like if you no longer experienced these issues? How do you get to that point? These questions are the foundation of my therapeutic approach, which is goal-oriented, solution-focused, and personalized to you as an individual. Your goals are unique to you, so it takes a unique approach in order to help you reach them. Together, we will identify your goals, the barriers you face, and how to overcome them to get to where you want to be.
Our past and current interpersonal relationships influence our own mental health status and are often the source of past trauma. I focus on building interpersonal skills such as conflict resolution, communication, and identification of healthy and unhealthy relationship dynamics to help heal trauma, and build a solid personal and professional support system to use long after our work together is completed. Since interpersonal relationships are so important to us as social creatures, the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is key to healing. Not every therapist works for every client. If, during our work together, you feel that this relationship is not a good fit for you, I am here to help you find someone who is.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW/LICSW) providing individual therapy to adults (18+) across Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, and Kentucky.

This passion led me to pursue a double major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, giving me insight into both human behavior and the systems that shape our experiences. From there, I earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work, building a strong foundation to guide, support, and empower those I work with.
My practice is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed philosophy. I view therapy as a partnership, with your voice and perspective at the center.

Starting therapy can feel uncomfortable, especially if you are used to handling things on your own or are not sure how to explain what is wrong. You may appear to be functioning well while privately feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unlike yourself.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over eight years of experience. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and genuine. I help clients understand the patterns affecting them, make sense of what they are experiencing, and find practical ways forward.

Are you stuck? Struggling with big feelings? Trouble focusing and staying organized? Just need someone who is not connected to you in any other way to talk with and bounce things off of? I can help! The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step.
It is often difficult to begin the journey of therapy, and I am glad you are considering it. Most people come to therapy hoping to try and fix something in their life that does not seem to be working so well. I will work with you to try and discover what is going on and how we can work together to help you be the best self you can be. I believe in focusing on building small, easy-to-learn coping skills and taking consistent baby steps towards your goals.
My name is Jason Fox, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with a Mental Health Service Provider designation in Tennessee (LPC, MHSP). I have 19 years of experience in mental health. I practice primarily cognitive behavioral therapy. I focus on trying to teach people that we need to think and act better first in order to feel better. I have experience working in crisis and crisis supervision. I have seen a lot of different things over the years, and the most important thing to me as a therapist is to meet clients where they are and to have a positive working relationship with them to help them get to where they are going.

I would love the opportunity to meet you "where you are" and serve you by utilizing the skills I have gained over my career of 33 years.

By identifying thoughts and feelings, behavior can change. This form of therapy, referred to as, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is my primary modality. I have worked with children, adolescents and adults specifically in the following areas: anxiety, depression, trauma and long-term mental health illnesses.

What happens during the first therapy session?
What happens during the first therapy session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
