Anxiety and depression therapists and psychiatrists in Chattanooga, TN

I’m Shuntai Walker (Hill), MA, LPC, NCC, a Licensed Professional Counselor helping women and teen girls ages 13–17 navigate depression, anxiety, OCD, trauma, forgiveness, and life transitions. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, struggling with intrusive thoughts, or adjusting to a new chapter, I offer a warm, supportive space to feel heard and begin moving forward.

I earned my master’s degrees from Liberty University and Spring Arbor University and am currently pursuing a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision at Adler University. I’m accepting new clients and welcome the opportunity to support you or your daughter.

I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who provides medication management across the lifespan, including children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. I have experience treating depression, anxiety, ADHD, bipolar disorder, other mood disorders, trauma-related symptoms, irritability, impulse control concerns, behavioral issues, emotional dysregulation, psychotic disorders, and substance use disorders, as well as supporting individuals who are in recovery.

My background includes inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings and crisis intervention, allowing me to support individuals with both acute and ongoing mental health needs. I strive to create a supportive, respectful space where clients feel heard and understood. I also work with families and caregivers when appropriate to support continuity of care.

Hello!

My name is Valerie Wade. I am a Masters-prepared LCSW (licensed clinical social worker) with over 35 years of experience working in corporate and clinical settings including inpatient and outpatient psychiatric settings, private practice, medical and training. I have assisted clients with a wide range of concerns such as depression, anxiety, adjustment issues, relationship challenges, parenting problems, substance use and self-esteem issues.

This is a telehealth practice. As a personal choice, the use of narcotics or other controlled (DEA) meds are minimal, if any. I've been a psych nurse practitioner for at least 14yrs. I believe in managing conditions with psychiatric and non-psychiatric treatment modalities that are evidence based. The use of the least amount of meds, at lower doses that does the healing of symptoms, is an active process involving the client and based on the reported experiences. Safety is the core of my practice and my job is to help clients understand internal signals and how to prevent another crisis.

My background includes providing counseling in various settings, such as schools, autism centers, pre-schools, juvenile justice programs, and residential group homes for youth in CYS custody.
