Hey there! I am a therapist that has a passion for helping individuals cope with ongoing life stressors. I want to assist people with building the best version of themselves. I specialize in working with those who struggle to manage their stress and/or anxiety. I love working with individuals who are struggling to navigate the complex world of relationships & parenting. I also enjoy helping those who struggle with financial stress and anxiety build a healthier relationship with money.
At an early age most people are taught to be independent, strong, and self-sufficient. But, there are times in life when difficult situations can become overwhelming. During these difficult times in life some individuals do not realize that it is okay "Not to be Okay." Asking for help can be hard.
Hi, I'm Dr. Deborah DeFrieze, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 15 years of experience helping people work through anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, depression, and life's hardest transitions. If anxiety or overwhelm has been running the show lately, I'm here to help you take the reins back — with a warm, honest, and practical approach.
My path to this work has been a rich one. Alongside my social work career, I spent 33 years in public education — as a teacher in both regular and special education, an assistant principal, a principal, and an assistant professor — and I served as a missionary in Africa for 18 months. Those experiences taught me to meet people where they are, across every walk of life and stage of change. I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and a doctorate in education from the University of Georgia, and I'm also a Licensed Massage Therapist, which deepens my appreciation for the mind-body connection in healing.
I draw on evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, tailoring our work to what will help you most.
I am a Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who is passionate about helping women feel supported, understood, and empowered in their mental health care. My practice focuses on women’s mental health, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, mood disorders, and perinatal mental health concerns throughout pregnancy, postpartum, and other major life transitions.
I believe mental health care should feel personal, collaborative, and judgment-free. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable being honest about what you are experiencing while knowing that your concerns will be taken seriously.

I meet my client where they are and challenge them to reach their goals.
As your therapist, my primary goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel genuinely heard and understood. Together, we will explore the challenges you are facing and identify actionable steps to help you move forward. My practice focuses on building practical coping strategies tailored to your unique lifestyle and goals. You can expect a collaborative relationship built on trust, respect, and mutual dedication to your personal growth.

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.
