Book a therapist or psychiatrist in Cookeville, TN covered by United Healthcare

Hello and welcome! I want to commend you on taking this step toward self-care. Our mental health is just as important as our physical health yet sometimes it takes a back seat. As a clinician for almost 20 years, I have spent my career helping clients achieve their mental health goals. I have had the privilege of working with all different walks of life from young children to adults helping them to uncover their strength through difficult moments of their lives.

I’m the kind of therapist who shows up as a real person first. I’m warm, honest, and deeply committed to helping you feel safe enough to be yourself. I have experience working with people navigating stress, relationship challenges, emotional ups and downs, and life transitions. My goal is to create a space where you feel seen, heard, and genuinely supported.

Hi there! I’m Kellie, and if you’re reading this sentence then I believe you have just begun one of the most important journeys of your life. I am a Christian therapist specializing in teens and young adults (20-30) struggling with anxiety, depression, and all the who-am-I questions that accompany growing up and becoming who they want to be. I have walked alongside teens and young adults for 13 years in both their heartaches and healing. I have an ever-growing passion to help them see beyond the pain of their circumstances and pursue the coping skills that help to make life more manageable.

Welcome! I know it can be a difficult journey starting therapy, but I'm so glad you're here. I have a passion for helping clients create movement in their life to make a lasting impact. Through a series of combined treatment approaches, I promise to work alongside you to achieve any goals that you might have--big or small. I use a trauma-lens to ensure that we treat each presenting problem delicately and effectively. I am trained in Brainspotting and have my LPC-MHSP license.

I'm so glad you're here! Therapy is a vulnerable experience, and regardless of your circumstances, you are meant to feel safe in therapy. I look forward to walking with you on your healing journey!

Though I enjoy working with a wide variety of clients, I have notable experience working with adolescents and adults who have anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and trauma.

My dedication to helping people with life-controlling issues stems from my journey in recovery. I am active in the local 12-step community and regularly sponsor others who are seeking sobriety, as I have been able to break the cycle of generational addiction in my family.

If you are looking to develop a greater understanding of yourself, a situation, or are looking for tools to better navigate life, we may be a fit.

I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who is passionate about helping women feel supported, understood, and empowered in their mental health care. My practice focuses on women’s mental health, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and perinatal mental health concerns throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and other major life transitions.

I believe mental health care should feel personal, collaborative, and judgment-free. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what you are experiencing while knowing that your concerns will be taken seriously.
