I’m a licensed psychologist with advanced training in trauma-informed and culturally responsive care. I earned my doctorate in Counseling Psychology and have worked across clinical, wellness, and consulting settings supporting individuals navigating burnout, identity stress, trauma, mood disorders and major life transitions.
I specialize in working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC), particularly Black women and professionals who are tired of carrying it all and ready to live with more clarity, boundaries, and ease. My work is deeply relational—I believe healing happens in connection, not isolation—and I bring both professional expertise and lived experience into the room.
Outside of therapy, I love vacationing and traveling (rest is not a reward, it’s a right), hosting gatherings at my home, spending time with loved ones, and creating soulful experiences through writing, speaking, and wellness work. Clients often describe me as grounded, warm, and direct—the kind of therapist who will validate you and help you move forward.
Areas of focus include: Burnout and stress management Life transitions and identity exploration Trauma and stuck patterns Boundary-setting and people-pleasing High-achieving professionals navigating overwhelm Clients from marginalized and intersectional identities
Do you feel stuck? Does your mind play the same mental record over and again? Do you know what you "should" do but just can't make yourself do it? Have you tried traditional talk therapy and not gotten the help you needed? I encourage you to try therapies that target the mind-body connection to release yourself from these binds. I offer clients Brain Spotting, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Internal Family Systems (IFS) in addition to traditional talk therapy. These therapies are evidence-based, efficient, and powerfully effective. We are designed to heal but we need help to activate these resources.
I’m Kate Flannery, a Licensed Professional Counselor with experience supporting women, couples, and families through anxiety, stress, trauma, and major life transitions. I specialize in helping clients navigate seasons such as pregnancy, postpartum adjustment, parenting challenges, relationship changes, and times when life feels overwhelming or uncertain.
I have been practicing since 2017 and provide virtual therapy for clients in Tennessee and California. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you feel understood while learning ways to manage anxiety, navigate challenges, strengthen relationships, and feel more confident in yourself and your decisions.
When we experience life's stressors it can leave us feeling as if our lives are unraveling. My passion is assisting children, teens, and young adults through the healing process. Are you struggling with anxiety or depression? Do you have a child or teenager who is often mislabeled as a "bad kid"? Have you experienced situations that you believe are keeping you from thriving? If you are looking to maximize your full potential, I am here to help.

Hi, I’m Liz! I help clients heal from past trauma and uncover the root of what’s keeping them feeling stuck. Trauma can shape the way you see yourself, others, and the world—often showing up as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or difficulty setting healthy boundaries.
My work focuses on addressing these deeper patterns to support lasting healing and meaningful personal growth. For those who desire it, I also offer the option to integrate Christian faith into the counseling process.
I believe therapy should not only be effective but also feel human and approachable. We’ll roll up our sleeves and do the work together, while also making space for moments of lightness along the way.

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.
