I am a licensed therapist with a Doctorate in Professional Counseling from Mississippi College and nearly 15 years of experience supporting individuals, families, children, and adolescents in both individual and group therapy settings. Over the course of my career, I have had the privilege of sitting with people through some of their most difficult and transformative moments, and I bring empathy, patience, and genuine care to every session.
My clinical experience includes working with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and behavioral health concerns across a wide variety of ages, backgrounds, and life circumstances. Two populations are especially close to my heart: children and adolescents experiencing behavioral or emotional challenges, and women healing from trauma. I understand how overwhelming these experiences can feel, and I am deeply committed to helping clients reclaim their strength, find hope, and move toward healing. I believe healing is possible for everyone, and I consider it an honor to be trusted as part of that journey.

I’m Charlotte Aeger Ross, PMHNP, a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner providing integrative mental health care for children, adolescents, and adults. My clinical approach combines evidence-based medication management with holistic strategies to address underlying biological, psychological, and lifestyle factors contributing to conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma-related disorders. I focus on individualized, collaborative treatment plans designed to promote long-term stability and overall well-being.
I came to train and serve as a counselor after being helped by counseling in my 40s. Sometimes reaching out for help and making changes in life is scary and overwhelming. Sometimes we need support as we navigate these changes. I love to support my clients as they make life-giving changes.

I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are.

I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Jackson, MS
Searching for therapists in Jackson starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist is trained to provide it. Therapists can support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship challenges, and work stress. As you compare options, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples therapy. A therapist’s profile can show how they describe their style, who they work with, and what to expect in sessions.
In a smaller city like Jackson, local therapist availability can vary by neighborhood and schedule. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer an office near Fondren, Belhaven, Downtown, or nearby areas like Madison. Virtual therapy can also expand your options across Mississippi when local appointment times are limited. To narrow your search, check whether a therapist is accepting new patients, offers appointment times that fit your calendar, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Jackson can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and show estimated costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Jackson, review detailed profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
