I began my counseling career as a school counselor. I have been an LPC/MHSP since 2010. I am an empty nester with three successful adult sons that I raised on my own. I am highly neurodivergent and gifted at the use of multiple modalities in treating complex trauma. This is NOT talk therapy. This a working collaboration. I meet my client where they are and challenge them to reach their goals.

Therapist

I tend to work well with people whose lives or mental health do not fit neatly into one box. Many of the people I work with are dealing with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, emotional dysregulation, substance use, relationship stress, or family conflict, and they often understand the pattern but still feel stuck in it. If you feel overwhelmed, reactive, burned out, or frustrated that insight alone has not created change, I want therapy to be a place where you can slow down, feel understood, and start making sense of what is happening beneath the surface.

I believe in empowering people to take charge of their own present and future lives. Generally, when you seek therapy, you are overwhelmed and ready to change. I believe you have it within yourself to make sense of your life, focus on creating the life you desire, and feel in control. I use strength and solution-based, client -centered psychotherapy. I am nonjudgmental, compassionate, and have a sense of humor. Regardless of the weight of therapy, we will also laugh!

Hi, it’s Marie. I’m here to help. I understand the vulnerability of what it is like to face new challenges whether it be personal or professional. As a military spouse and clinician, I’ve had my share of this cycle over the past 20 years. My journey has been both challenging and remarkably rewarding. I welcomed both whole-heartedly because they each helped my growth as a person, a wife, parent, friend, colleague, and in my profession. I’ve done my work, and now I’m here to help you through yours!

For a total of 8 years, I’ve been happy to educate and assist my clients with eliminating unhealthy patterns, alleviating daily life stressors, enhancing emotional regulation, improving self-worth, navigating complexities of intimate partner/domestic abuse, family and other relationship dynamics, and trauma (I completed EMDR basic training in 2026, which offers me an additional trauma-informed orientation). I utilize integrated evidenced based approaches in my work.

Taking the initial step to participate in therapy may take all the courage and motivation you have within you. Let’s start there, and we will work together to navigate the landing to a space of what I call R.E.S.T. (Restoration, Empowerment, Stability, Tranquility) for you.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Brentwood, TN


Many people come to therapy because something in their relationships isn’t working—conflict that keeps repeating, difficulty feeling close, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or others. Beneath these patterns, there is often something deeper: old wounds, protective strategies, and unmet longings that continue to shape how we show up in the present.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Memphis

Searching for therapists in Memphis starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want support with. Therapists may focus on anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions. As you compare Memphis therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and populations served. A bio that explains the therapist’s approach can help you understand what sessions may be like and whether their background fits your needs.

In Memphis, your search may include therapists in Midtown, Downtown, Cooper-Young, East Memphis, or nearby areas, along with virtual options across Tennessee. In-person sessions may work well if location, parking, or office setting matters to you. Virtual therapy may fit better if your schedule changes often or you prefer care from home. Beyond specialty, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.

Therapy in Memphis can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session cost and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer virtual or in-person appointments. You can enter your insurance details, review estimated costs, compare bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
