David Flowers

David Flowers

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 8.7 mi away • Franklin, TN


I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with children, teens, young adults, adults, and families. I earned my graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University and have been working with clients since 2021.

I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents, including those navigating ADHD, autism, grief, family changes, and the challenges that come with growing up. I also work with young adults and adults experiencing grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, and significant life transitions.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than 20 years in the business world. That experience has given me a unique perspective on work, relationships, parenting, responsibility, and what it means to make difficult changes in your life.

I believe every person deserves to feel known, valued, and hopeful about what comes next. That belief is at the heart of my work as a therapist.

Melisse Prusinski

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 16 mi away • Madison, TN


I'm a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) and Board Certified Hypnotherapist based in Madison, TN, with 16 years in practice. I hold a Master's in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and am a certified hypnotherapist through the National Guild of Hypnotists. I'm also an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, so I train and supervise other clinicians in addition to seeing clients myself.


I work with adults and families around addiction, trauma and PTSD, and impulse control disorders, along with anxiety, low self-esteem, mood disorders, OCD, relationship issues, and compulsive or disruptive patterns. Hypnotherapy and Internal Family Sytems are my favorite modalities.


I offer both in-person sessions (at Watershed Wellness Cooperative in Madison) and telehealth, with daytime, evening, and weekend availability.

Steven Estes

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 23 mi away • Murfreesboro, TN


I believe that meaningful change happens in the context of safe, authentic relationships. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, or relationship challenges, my goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and challenged in ways that promote lasting growth.

I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and work with adults, couples, and families. While relationships are a primary area of focus, I also work with individuals facing attachment wounds, overwhelming stress, emotional disconnection, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Rather than simply helping you manage symptoms, I want to help you understand what is driving them so meaningful change becomes possible.
