Hi, I’m Maddy Egner, LPC-MHSP. I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach is person-centered, meaning I meet you where you are and tailor treatment to your unique needs and goals. I also believe humor can be healing — even in the midst of hard things — and I strive to create a space that feels both safe and authentic. A little laughter and (when appropriate) dark humor can really help us shift, take action, and grow.

I earned my degree from West Texas A&M University and am licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor – Mental Health Service Provider in Tennessee. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for growth, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

***Please note, I only offer in person sessions on Mondays. I offer telehealth sessions Tuesday and Thursday. All initial free 15 consultations will be done via phone call.***

The foundation of my practice is based on the respect I have for my clients, and my therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your needs. As a trained and experienced therapist, I am not only technically objective, but also provide you with emotional nourishment and assistance as you work through problem areas in your life. Psychotherapy is about growth and transformation and equips you to overcome challenges impacting your family, job or relationships. My areas of expertise include addiction, relationship or job-related issues, depression, anxiety and stress. I employ solution focused therapy based on psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness approaches. I am also a qualified Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) to evaluate employees who have violated a DOT drug and alcohol program regulation and makes recommendations concerning education, treatment, follow-up, testing, and aftercare.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Franklin, TN

Searching for therapists in Franklin starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Therapists may work with concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and therapy approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. A therapist’s bio can also show how they structure sessions and what kinds of concerns they commonly support.

Franklin has mental health care options across areas like Cool Springs, Downtown Franklin, and nearby communities, but local appointment times may vary. Virtual care can expand your options, especially if you need a therapist licensed in Tennessee with availability that fits your schedule. Consider practical details like whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers in-person or virtual sessions, has appointment times that work for you, or provides a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, clinical focus, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Franklin can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and get a clearer estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, check your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront. You can browse therapists in Franklin, review bios, compare availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
