Prenatal and postpartum therapists & psychiatrists in Sparta, 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.

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.

Hi! My name is Amanda, I graduated with my Masters in Family Therapy from Drexel University in 2016. Since then, I have worked with a variety of individuals, couples, and families. I am trained in family systems therapy, collaborative problem solving, acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and emotion-focused therapy, as well as several other treatment modalities.

Life asks all of us to carry difficult things. I believe healing isn't measured by the absence of hardship but by our growing ability to carry it. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a PhD in Mental Health Counseling, I specialize in helping individuals and couples navigate chronic illness, evolving medical needs, the relational impact of major medical challenges, and all of the other parts of life because no one lives just to be a patient. I come to this specialty with both years of experience as a therapist supporting specific illnesses like cystic fibrosis, diabetes, and cancer as well as lifelong experience as a sibling to a brother with chronic illness. My role is to help you better understand what you're carrying, strengthen what helps sustain you, and build a life that feels meaningful even when life doesn't become easier. If you are navigating illness, its impact on your relationships, or simply a life that feels

heavier than it should, I would be glad to hear your story and to help you carry it.

Starting therapy is a big step, and if you've made it this far, you're doing an amazing job. You've recognized that you need assistance navigating life, and I'm here to help you understand yourself better. I work with adults struggling with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, perinatal mental health, self-esteem, and other conditions.

I've always been told I'm easy to talk to, and I have a deep desire to help people become the best versions of themselves. I love seeing my clients gain confidence and become empowered to not only survive, but to thrive and become truly comfortable in their skin. Together, we can get you to your happy place.

Howdy, and welcome! My name is Alicia, and I'm a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee. I work with folks who might be dealing with the effects of trauma, anxiety, or depression.
