Steven Estes

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Murfreesboro, TN


I believe that meaningful change happens in the context of safe, authentic relationships. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, life transitions, or relationship challenges, my goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely heard, understood, and challenged in ways that promote lasting growth.

I earned my Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and work with adults, couples, and families. While relationships are a primary area of focus, I also work with individuals facing attachment wounds, overwhelming stress, emotional disconnection, and patterns that leave them feeling stuck. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. Rather than simply helping you manage symptoms, I want to help you understand what is driving them so meaningful change becomes possible.

There’s much more to your story.

I believe therapy should be a place where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to grow. Drawing on decades of experience, I provide a compassionate, practical, and holistic approach to therapy. I began my work as a spiritual and addictions counselor in 1981 and became a state-licensed mental health therapist in 2007. Since then, I have partnered with individuals, couples, families, and groups to help them build on their strengths, clarify their values, and create lasting change.

Before moving into private practice, I spent 20 years serving the Cleveland, Tennessee community as an outpatient therapist with Volunteer Behavioral Health.

David Flowers

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Franklin, TN


I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with children, teens, young adults, adults, and families. I earned my graduate degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Trevecca Nazarene University and have been working with clients since 2021.

I especially enjoy working with children and adolescents, including those navigating ADHD, autism, grief, family changes, and the challenges that come with growing up. I also work with young adults and adults experiencing grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, and significant life transitions.

Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than 20 years in the business world. That experience has given me a unique perspective on work, relationships, parenting, responsibility, and what it means to make difficult changes in your life.

I believe every person deserves to feel known, valued, and hopeful about what comes next. That belief is at the heart of my work as a therapist.

I get it—feeling stuck in the same old patterns, craving deeper connections, and wondering how to even begin to break free can be exhausting. If you’re anything like the people I work with (and honestly, like I once was myself), you’ve probably spent a lot of time thinking, “Something has to change... but what?” That’s where I come in.
