I’m a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with experience in both private practice and community mental health settings. My background allows me to work with a wide range of individuals, from those navigating everyday stress and anxiety to those managing more complex mental health conditions.
I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degrees from Middle Tennessee State University, Maryville University, and Murray State University. My training across both primary care and psychiatry allows me to take a comprehensive, whole-person approach to care.
My name is Emily Hand, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, certified in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an evidence-based therapy that is particularly effective for trauma. With 8 years of experience, I work with adults and have a diverse background of experience with trauma, addiction, compulsive behaviors, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, and relationship problems. I’m passionate about this work, because when we internalize pain we often believe there’s something wrong with us, but what I’ve found is that it’s not about who you are, but what has happened to you — and the ripple effects that follow.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Couples Therapist in Memphis
Finding couples therapists in Memphis starts with clarifying what you and your partner want support with. Couples therapy, couples counseling, and marriage counseling can address communication breakdowns, conflict patterns, trust after infidelity, major life transitions, and parenting disagreements. Not all therapists have specific training in couples work, so look for licensed marriage and family therapists or therapists who list couples-focused approaches, such as the Gottman Method or emotionally focused therapy, in their bios.
In Memphis, your search may include therapists with offices near work, home, or familiar parts of the city, along with therapists who offer virtual appointments across Tennessee. Couples counseling in Memphis also depends on finding one therapist who fits both partners’ schedules, preferences, and goals. As you compare profiles, review availability, session format, therapeutic approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. A therapist’s bio can also help you understand how they structure couples sessions and whether their style fits what you’re looking for.
Couples 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 makes it easier to compare Memphis couples counseling and relationship counseling options by showing therapists who are accepting new patients, offering virtual or in-person sessions, and accepting a wide range of insurance plans, so you can review bios, see estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
