I received my master degree from the University of Memphis in May 2009. I immediately started working with a variety of clientele. I have extensive experience with trauma related care, attachment trauma, anxiety disorders, depression, substance abuse disorders, grief/bereavement and life transitions. I have worked in the community, in schools, worked with clients privately and worked with clients in therapeutic/recovery courts. I have experience with children, adolescents, and adults ranging from ages 5-80. I have three certifications in trauma informed care.
I’m Laura, a licensed therapist with 13 years of experience helping adults navigate life transitions, stress, and personal growth. I work with athletes, college students, new parents, and adults who want support managing challenges, building resilience, and finding balance.

Hi, I'm Dr. Lewis! I believe that your past experiences don't have to define your future. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I help adults navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship challenges, and struggles with self-worth. I also have experience supporting individuals affected by substance use and recovery. Whether you're carrying the weight of difficult experiences, feeling stuck in familiar patterns, or simply looking for a healthier way forward, my goal is to help you find clarity, confidence, and a renewed sense of hope.
My approach is compassionate, down-to-earth, and focused on understanding you as a whole person. I recognize that our experiences, relationships, and beliefs all play a role in how we navigate life's challenges. I strive to create a welcoming environment where you feel comfortable being yourself while working toward meaningful change. If faith or spirituality is important to you, I'm also happy to incorporate it into our work in a way that respects your personal beliefs.

I’m a person-centered therapist with more than ten years of experience helping people navigate grief, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship struggles, family conflict, heartbreak, abuse, and trauma. I work with a broad range of clients and bring specialized training in EMDR and trauma-focused care to my practice. I know what it is to struggle, and I believe healing begins when you no longer have to face that struggle alone. My role is to meet you where you are, help you imagine where you want to be, and walk alongside you as you find the courage to get there.
Hello! I am a Licensed Marital and Family Therapist (LMFT) with over 11 years of clinical experience helping individuals, couples, first responders, and families navigate stress, life transitions, PTSD, relationship impasses, trauma, depression and anxiety.
Throughout my career—directing crisis counseling units, consulting in high-stakes environments, and leading private practice care—I have worked with people facing overwhelming life circumstances. I understand that therapy can feel intimidating, especially when you are used to being the "strong one" for everyone else. My goal is to offer a grounded, confidential, and judgment-free environment where we cut through the noise, make sense of what is happening under the surface, and build practical strategies for meaningful relief.
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.
My current treatment focuses/ training are for perinatal mental health, and Emotional Focused Therapy (EFT). I'm passionate about working with the BIPOC population, LGBTQ+ population, teens, young adults, and older as they learn how to navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I'm dedicated to working with those of various backgrounds and walks of life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Memphis
Finding family therapists in Memphis starts with knowing what kind of support your family needs. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication patterns across generations. Family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare Memphis therapists, look for bios that mention family systems, structural family therapy, parenting support, or experience working with children, teens, and caregivers.
In a mid-size city like Memphis, your search may include therapists with offices near different neighborhoods, as well as therapists who offer virtual appointments across Tennessee. Session structure can also vary. Some appointments may include the full family, while others may focus on caregivers, siblings, couples, or individual family members. Before booking, review each therapist’s profile for availability, approach, and whether a free phone consultation is offered, so you can ask how they typically structure family therapy.
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. Headway helps you find licensed therapists who are accepting new patients, match your family’s needs, and accept a wide range of insurance plans. You can enter your insurance details to see your estimated cost before booking, then browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
