Trauma and PTSD therapists & psychiatrists in Cookeville, TN

Hi, I’m Elizabeth! I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, depression, ADHD, stress, trauma, and major life challenges. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to move forward, therapy can give you a space to slow down, feel understood, and find a path forward.

I believe you deserve a space where you can be completely yourself without judgment. My style is warm, compassionate, creative, and empowering, and I work alongside you to understand what you’re experiencing, recognize your strengths, and develop strategies that fit your life and goals.

My goal is to help you feel more confident, supported, and equipped to create meaningful change.

I’m Jessica Kelley, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps adults and couples navigate anxiety, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I also have a special interest in supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and other seasons of change.

My goal is to help you feel understood while making meaningful, lasting changes in your life. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or simply ready for something to change, we’ll focus on what matters most to you and build practical tools to help you feel more confident, connected, and in control.

If you’re carrying trauma, anxiety, or depression, you’ve found a warm and steady place to start. I’m a seasoned Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and mindfulness has been a deeply important part of my own life and my work for nearly 30 years. Over the years, I’ve completed intensive meditation training in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and the United States, experiences that have profoundly shaped how I understand healing, presence, and the connection between mind and body. I’d be honored to bring all of that to you.

Hi! My name is Nicks Hasley. I graduated from Tennessee Technological University in 2022 I have experience working with kids, teens, and adults. I specialize in trauma and grief counseling. I also do career counseling along with counseling for depression and anxiety. I also have experience in with play therapy for children from 3-10 years old.

If you feel like you don't quite recognize yourself anymore, mood swings that come out of nowhere, anxiety that wasn't there before, old wounds resurfacing you thought you'd already dealt with, you're not imagining it, and you're not alone in it. I work with women navigating the hormonal and identity shifts of midlife, including perimenopause and menopause, helping you understand what's happening beneath the surface so we can do more than just manage symptoms, and actually get to what's underneath them. I'm a licensed professional counselor (LPC-MHSP) in Tennessee with a master's in clinical mental health counseling and training in EMDR, DBT, CBT, EFT, and Motivational Interviewing. I bring experience from private practice, clinical roles in group practice, and residential treatment work for substance abuse."

Everyone has their own unique journey when it comes to healing, and it’s important to me to give my clients a space where they always feel valued and respected. Whether you’re working through trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, or another challenge life has brought your way, it’s okay to ask for help. With over 4 years of experience, I work with children, teens, adults, and seniors, helping them make sense of what they’re going through and find ways to feel better.

I am excited to work with clients who feel ready for change, are curious about themselves, their relationships, and the ways in which their experiences have shaped them. I have collaborated with individuals across the lifespan and families across their development to find greater joy, acceptance, and meaning within themselves. My clients describe me as energetic, compassionate, patient, and creative. I meet clients where they are and endeavor to walk with them through life's ups and downs. In my work I draw inspiration from Robyn Gobel, Pema Chödrön, and Dr. Raquel Martin.

I am honored to be exploring your healing journey with you. We live in a world where mental healthcare is stigmatized and self-care is a fix-all when what we really need is community care. Healing happens within the context of relationships. I hope to build therapeutic relationships with clients to help them flourish and meet their goals.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to reach out! Do you ever have those days when things are especially difficult?? When "Life is Lifing" as we say?? Many of the people that I meet and work with are looking for support with mental health, substance abuse, and/or management of traumatic events. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker as well as a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor. I'm also a Mom of three and a dog Mom of two who likes to practice what I preach in my own life. As a strong believer in the mental/physical health connection, a lot of my focus is incorporating integrated health into our treatment approach. I also support an intimate hospice team in my area so I am comfortable having uncomfortable conversations about life. If you are interesting in giving therapy a shot, or just learning a bit more about my approach, feel free to reach out and we'll see where it takes us.
