Grace has been providing mental health care in Nashville since 2017.

She has since transitioned to outpatient practice, where she provides medication management and compassionate, individualized care to adults across Tennessee through telehealth. Grace takes a warm, collaborative approach to care and believes in taking the time to understand what is really contributing to a person’s symptoms rather than simply treating the diagnosis. She works with clients to find thoughtful, practical treatment options that fit their needs, preferences, and goals.

Find the right psychiatrist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Knoxville

Finding psychiatrists in Knoxville starts with knowing what type of mental health care fits your needs. Psychiatrists and psychiatric mental health nurse practitioners can diagnose conditions, prescribe medication, and manage medication over time. Therapists focus on talk therapy, and both can be valid places to start depending on what you need. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, or medication management, review each psychiatrist’s listed specialties, training, and approach before booking.

Knoxville offers a mix of local psychiatric care across areas like Bearden, Fort Sanders, Old City, and nearby parts of Knox County. In a mid-sized market, your best fit may depend on appointment availability, whether you prefer in-person or virtual visits, and how closely a psychiatrist’s focus matches your needs. Medication management appointments are often shorter and less frequent than therapy sessions. Some psychiatrists also offer therapy, and some people work with both a therapist and a prescriber. Reading bios can help you compare communication style, clinical focus, and session structure before you choose.

Psychiatric care in Knoxville can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first visit. Headway helps you find psychiatrists who are accepting new patients, match your preferences, and take your insurance plan. You can enter your insurance details, view estimated costs upfront, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
