Bipolar disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Jackson, TN

Hi, I’m Becca.

Reaching out for mental health care can feel like a big step. Once you’re here, it shouldn’t have to feel hard. You don’t need to have the right words or know exactly what you need. We can figure that out together.

I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a doctorate in nursing, and I work with children, teens, and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, life transitions, neurodivergence, and the complicated stuff that doesn’t always fit neatly into a diagnostic box.

I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy. More than anything, I believe good mental health care starts with actually listening to you. I want to know what’s working, what isn’t, what you’ve already tried, and what you want your life to feel like.

You are more than a diagnosis, and your care should feel that way.

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.

I am available to care for individuals who require non-standard and flexible appointment hours including evenings; and, with a focus on working adults/professionals, students, elderly, those with challenges due to their illness, and so forth. I am also open to taking on patients who need continuity of care after discharge from inpatient care. I am capable of providing on the spot medication management including deprescribing/tapers, addressing interactions, taking over from primary care provider for more advance regiment, etc ...

With over 20 years if experience, I provide counseling to adolescents, adults and senior adults. People from all faiths, cultures and world views are welcome in my practice. Clients come to my office seeking a safe place to process things that may have resulted in feelings of anxiety, depression, stress or relationship difficulties. I specialize in working with clients who have experienced trauma. Counseling is provided from a Biblical worldview and I will pray with clients upon request.

A Master's Degree in Counseling was earned in 2007 from Oakland University in Rochester, MI. Additionally I hold certifications in grief counseling and Story Informed Trauma Therapy (SITT). Work with couples and families is informed by doctoral level study and Gottman training to help improve communication in relationships. I have been married for 50 years, am the mother of two adult children and grand mother of seven.

My office provides a handicapped accessible space to process concerns in a home-like atmosphere. Counseling services are available in person and via telehealth.

I am a licensed therapist specializing in anxiety, trauma, addiction and relationship challenges. I work with children, adolescents and adults to create a supportive space where healing and growth feel possible.

Specific modalities are Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Nurturing Parenting, Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Psychotherapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Family Therapy, Solution-Focused, Mindfulness and Muscle relaxation.

I have over 27 years of experience in nursing and mental health care. I specialize in supporting individuals of all ages who are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship challenges, and burnout.

I have a particular passion for working with caregivers, high-achieving professionals, and women who carry the emotional weight of others. My care blends evidence-based psychiatric treatment with holistic approaches to help clients achieve balance in mind, body, and spirit.

Rewriting your story in other words is a good practice. I enjoy supporting individuals ages 16+ with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and complex trauma. Finding the right tools that work for you and help you to achieve your specific goals in therapy is invaluable. I’ve been practicing for 15 years, but in the last few years, I have shifted my main focus to couples who are struggling with relationships.
