I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting people through anxiety, stress, life transitions, and burnout. I help adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem concerns, mood changes, family dynamics, and major life transitions. Many of my clients are looking for a safe place to talk things through and feel better.
Hi! My name is Timothy, I'm a licensed professional counselor. I received my Master's in Counseling in 2022, and have been working as a therapist since then. I've specialized in family issues, childhood trauma, and ADHD, as well as helping people through panic attacks and depression.
When anxiety feels like it's running your life, or when thoughts keep looping no matter what you try, 25 years of experience makes a real difference. I'm Dr. Pamela Dobbins, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with more than two decades of practice working with adults through anxiety, panic, depression, and grief. I bring clinical depth and a direct, practical approach to every session. Clients often describe me as steady, clear, and genuinely invested in helping them build skills that last.
Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.
I help men who feel stuck, behind in life, or disconnected from themselves. If you find yourself overthinking, avoiding things you know matter, or struggling to stay consistent, you’re not alone. Together, we’ll understand what’s keeping you stuck and build a path forward that feels clear and manageable.
I specialize in remote online counseling, making it easy for you to receive support without leaving the comfort of your home. I currently have immediate openings for daytime, evening, and weekend appointments, and I am committed to providing flexible, accessible care that fits your schedule.
I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are. I bring warmth, authenticity, and even a bit of humor into the room when it feels right. I want you to feel genuinely seen—not judged—and supported in whatever you’re working through.
I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy
I work with adults experiencing mood challenges, anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ experiences, as well as individuals who are justice-involved or adjusting to major life changes. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, and Reality Therapy, giving us room to explore both deeper patterns and practical skills.
Clients describe me as encouraging, steady, and real—someone who helps them feel grounded and capable while taking meaningful steps toward a more balanced and authentic life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Anxiety Therapist in Jackson, TN
Searching for therapists in Jackson starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. People often look for therapy for anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or major life transitions. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy approaches, and experience with concerns like yours. Some profiles may mention approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy, which can help you understand how a therapist may structure care.
In a smaller city like Jackson, local in-person openings may vary by schedule, office location, and specialty. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Tennessee while still connecting you with a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can also help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Jackson can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who take insurance, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person appointments when available. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
