I have experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families. I treat a wide range of mental health challenges including anxiety and stress, mood disorders, trauma, depression, coping with chronic illness, military family life, and life transitions. I have 30 years of working with service members, families and support system members.
I’m Elaina, a bicultural therapist whose own lived experiences shape how I sit with others. Many of my clients carry complex or childhood trauma layered with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or depression. They’re often the deep feelers and deep thinkers—the ones who’ve been told they’re “too much.”
I work with individuals and couples navigating relationship struggles, grief, affairs, identity shifts, and life transitions. I also enjoy working with military families, veterans, LGBTQ+ folks, and people from diverse cultural backgrounds who know that healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. My style is warm and human, with steady empathy and a willingness to challenge when it supports growth.
Starting therapy is a big step, and if you've made it this far, you're doing an amazing job. You've recognized that you need assistance navigating life, and I'm here to help you understand yourself better. I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, perinatal mental health, self-esteem, and other conditions.
I've always been told I'm easy to talk to, and I have a deep desire to help people become the best versions of themselves. I love seeing my clients gain confidence and become empowered to not only survive, but to thrive and become truly comfortable in their skin. Together, we can get you to your happy place.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an ADHD Therapist in Memphis
Finding ADHD therapists in Memphis starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Therapists can help with focus, organization, emotional regulation, time management, and routines through approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy for ADHD and skills-based support. Psychiatrists can help with diagnosis and medication management. Some people use therapy, medication management, or both. It can also help to look for a therapist with experience in adult ADHD, pediatric ADHD, anxiety, depression, or school and work-related concerns, depending on what you want to address.
Memphis has a solid mental health care community, but the right fit still depends on practical details like location, appointment times, and care format. An in-person therapist near Midtown, East Memphis, downtown, or another part of the city may work well if the office fits your routine. Virtual appointments can expand your options, especially if you want more flexibility or prefer to search beyond nearby offices. ADHD can also overlap with anxiety or depression, so reading therapist bios can help you see whether a therapist lists related specialties, explains their approach clearly, and offers a free phone consultation before booking.
Therapy in Memphis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find ADHD therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can compare options, choose a therapist who matches your needs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
