Hi! I'm a dual-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner, with 6 years working as an APRN with adults. My focus is ADHD, anxiety, and depression, you know, the stuff that shows up in daily life and makes everything feel harder than it should. I handle psychiatric evaluations and medication management, and I actually enjoy the process of figuring out what works for you, not just what works in general.
I have over 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy across a wide range of settings, including acute and non-acute mental health, residential treatment, and outpatient care. Throughout my career, I've worked with adults, adolescents, individuals, and couples facing everything from everyday life stressors to more complex emotional and psychological challenges.
While I work with a broad range of concerns, I have particular interests in relationship counseling using the Gottman Method, chronic pain utilizing Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), addiction, borderline personality disorder using DBT, and anxiety-related disorders. I also frequently help clients navigate life transitions, relationship difficulties, parenting, work stress, panic, and general emotional well-being.
One thing that deeply shapes my work is a genuine curiosity about the human condition. I believe every person's story makes sense when we take the time to understand it. Rather than viewing people through the lens of a diagnosis alone, I strive to understand the experiences, relationships, beliefs, and circumstances that have shaped who they are. I see therapy as a collaborative process of exploration, insight, and meaningful change.
I am an LCSW with a Master's of Social Work degree and have been in field over 12 years.
I am a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner serving clients in Tennessee. I specialize in helping clients manage depression, anxiety, OCD, insomnia, PTSD, substance abuse, and bipolar disorder with a combination of medication and therapy.
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.
Sheena Rymer, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), received a Master's Degree in Social Work from Valdosta State University in May 2014 and a clinical license in Social Work in September 2019. During that time, she interned and worked at Miller Counseling Services, Pruitt Nursing Home, Mountain Education Charter School, and Fannin County School System. She facilitated groups; provided care consultations and coordinated services for clients both admitted and discharged from the nursing home; and provided individual counseling services. Moreover, Sheena has over five years experience in crisis intervention. Sheena is an active member of School Social Work Association of America (SSWAA), Fannin Children's Fund (FCF), and Social Workers Action Group (SWAG).
I have a broad variety of therapeutic experience to include crisis intervention and trauma informed care. I received my master's degree in professional counseling from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA and have been practicing in the field for over 10yrs.
I am a Board-Certified Psychiatrist licensed in TN and MI and I offer a wide range of services including therapy and treatment for Major Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Anxiety disorders, PTSD and ADHD. I graduated from University of Pennsylvania and am a Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association and have 26 years of experience. I have worked in Inpatient and outpatient services having served patients in CMHC, and I am currently in Outpatient Private Practice.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I'm committed to providing a safe and nonjudgmental environment for exploring pathways to psychological and emotional healing. Specializing in Dialectical and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, I believe everyone is worthy of love and happiness. I encourage people to see themselves through that same lens.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Memphis, TN
Searching for OCD therapists in Memphis starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, contamination fears, compulsive routines, and related anxiety. Some therapists offer specialized approaches for obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists have specific training in every approach, so it can help to ask a qualified provider about their background. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that mention OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or experience with intrusive thoughts and compulsions.
Memphis offers a solid range of mental health care options, and the right fit may depend on location, appointment format, and specialty training. In-person sessions may work well if you prefer an office setting near home, work, or school. Virtual appointments can expand your options if a therapist with ERP experience has limited office availability near you. When reviewing profiles, look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD. Read their bio for details on their approach, appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe working with OCD-related concerns.
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 make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists, shows estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book, and lists therapists who are accepting new patients. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage for your specific plan and area. You can compare bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
