Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Chattanooga, TN

My name is Emily Hand, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy that is particularly effective for trauma. With 8 years of experience, I work with adults and have a diverse background of experience with trauma, addiction, compulsive behaviors, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and relationship problems. I’m passionate about this work, because when we internalize pain we often believe there’s something wrong with us, but what I’ve found is that it’s not about who you are, but what has happened to you — and the ripple effects that follow.

As a board certified psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and pharmacologist I believe in a balanced approach to obtaining and maintaining mental wellness. Congratulations on prioritizing self-care by seeking mental healthcare. I have been in practice for 3.5 years and appreciate seeing adult patients struggling with common and uncommon mental illness.

Hi, I’m Mary! I believe that therapy should be a safe place to explore your story, gain deeper self understanding, and learn ways to cope better with the hard things in life. I hope to create a fun and collaborative environment that feels inclusive and inviting.

When i'm not seeing clients I enjoy writing and playing music around Nashville, teaching Pure Barre, and hosting my dating podcast. I believe that therapy should incorporate healing of the mind, body, and spirit. I can’t wait to meet you!

Above all, I believe mental health is a lifelong pursuit and would love to be a part of your journey.
