Teletherapy for Franklin, TN

Whether you are navigating life changes, facing depression, anxiety, or dealing with loss, stress, or difficult relationships - I am here for you. I believe that therapy is an essential part of personal growth, mental health management and healing trauma. As a therapist, I value authenticity, striving to create a relaxed environment, offer inclusive, culturally sensitive and client centered therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I hope to walk alongside my clients through the vulnerable therapeutic process as they learn, grow, and heal. I offer both in-person and Telehealth services to individuals and couples in Tennessee.

You know yourself best, and I hope to help guide you in the journey of improving your quality of life. We all need help from an outside perspective from time to time; I create a safe, non-judgmental, environment to help you with your goals. Battling anxiety? Wanting to grow into a more authentic you? Let's work together to meet these struggles head on.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed by your anxiety, no matter what you do? Maybe you have been weighed down by depression. Or you want to heal from your past experiences but are struggling to find a way to move forward? You may be fed up with constantly feeling on edge, feeling unable to function in your daily life, or doubting your self-worth. You might not even remember a time where things didn't feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you're ready for some relief. You're ready to feel joy again. You're ready to feel at peace with yourself. Most of all you're ready to face your future with a sense of hope.

I have the privilege to work with parents who want to support their child and their development through connection and understanding, preteens/teens who are navigating life changes as they grow up and want to build new skills, and children who are learning about themselves and the world without the tools to communicate their needs. I love being able to advocate for my clients to support them in achieving the goals they set for themselves.

Everyone deserves a peaceful and loving home. Does chaos wreak havoc on your home’s happiness? Have you tried every parenting strategy out there? I provide a safe and collaborative space to work through these challenges together. I will share what the latest neuroscience says about behavioral challenges and how we can use this information to our benefit in helping you and your child find healthier ways of interacting. We will practice new tools to help you make the adjustments you need, allowing your home to become the happier place you all deserve.

I work best with motivated adults and teens struggling with relationships, depression, anxiety, trauma, grief and/or life transitions. I help you increase your connection, clarity, meaning and happiness by offering hope and affirmative counseling tailored to your personal/cultural perspective. Clients of any culture, race, religion, socio-economic status or sexual orientation are welcome in my office.

Have you ever thought, I’ll feel better when (fill in the blank) happens. However, every time you think about it the (fill in the blank) never seems to come or has come but you still feel unsettled. Moving through transitions can seem uncomfortable or chaotic at times but so can seeing a therapist. I’ll help you walk through the journey of your transition or current issue usually while wearing one of my many comfortable sweatshirts.

Are you in a place in life, or in your relationship, where you no longer recognize yourself...and if you're honest, you're no longer okay with it? Whether you’re a professional experiencing burnout, a parent feeling overwhelmed, or a spouse feeling disconnected... you find yourself in a cycle, repeating the same patterns, and feeling stuck. If this sounds like you or your relationship, it's time to make a change. I work with women, parents & couples, just like you, who struggle to manage their roles, competing expectations, and unspoken burdens. Their relationships are suffering & they feel disconnected from what used to feel good.

Welcome! My name is Julie Evans, and I am a licensed marriage and family therapist in Tennessee (License #1134). I am currently practicing individual, couples, and family therapy in the context of telemedicine. With over a decade of experience, it has been my privilege to work with diverse clients across the lifespan. Please see my website for specific information pertaining to my work with clients at www.julieevanslmft.com. Do not hesitate to email me with any questions you may have at julieevanslmft@gmail.com.

No matter how dark and trying things feel in this moment, there is hope and ability to change that can happen. Join me and my personally trained staff to help move beyond the madness, implement real and lasting results that focus on core changes. No matter if you have had years of treatment and therapy, or are new to counseling, become one of the many who have found answers working with us!

Whether you're seeking therapy for yourself or your relationship, you may be feeling disconnected, exhausted, embarrassed, angry, or many other emotions. Perhaps you long for better communication, greater intimacy, and rebuilt trust. In addition to working toward re-connection and love in your relationship, sex and sexuality are often difficult to talk about between couples. Creating a judgement-free space where you can explore these thoughts, feelings, and personal values is my highest priority as a therapist.

I specialize in working with couples, marriages, families, and I also provide individual therapy. I aim to increase healthier communication, understanding and on building a stronger connection, beginning from the first therapy session. I provide psychotherapy without judgement or blame, in a supportive, empathic and caring environment. I have worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds, ages and sexual orientations. I look to empower people and to help them tap into their inner resources, aiming at aiding them in developing coping strategies to manage stressful situations, and to find solutions to their relational challenges.

The ups and downs of life can be tough for us all. We strive every day to find a little more light, however, sometimes just as we are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, an unexpected new challenge falls in our path. This can feel as if there is no way out. Counseling offers an avenue to work together to brighten this path. The experiences in our past impact the way we live our life today, how we cope with these challenges, and how we see our future. Finding the insight, self-knowledge and inner strength for better coping with our depression, anxiety, or uncertainty is the key to living our most fulfilling lives.

At times we all experience difficulty adjusting to life changes, feeling trapped in negative relationships (self, family, peers, partner), challenged with low self confidence, lack of boundaries, low mood, and overwhelming anxiety. Or perhaps reenacting past traumas or learned patterns of dysfunction. If you are stuck and not moving forward, then I encourage you to pursue this next step. It is time for self care. With me you will experience a warm, welcoming, and safe environment. It is important that you feel comfortable and empowered throughout this growing process.

Are you tired of repeating the same old patterns? Feel like you've tried everything you know? Don't give up. I'm willing to go all in. My style is relational, straightforward, and genuine. I will work hard to help you figure out how to make life better! For work with couples, the goal is always to increase connection and satisfaction. If you've been to couples counseling before and are afraid it won't work, don't give up hope. There are specific tools I can teach you and guide you to use that are based on 40 years of research by John and Julie Gottman.

Are the things that once made you happy no longer making you happy? Have you been through a traumatic experience that left you feeling scared, lonely, or even doubting who you are? Maybe you’ve been through a series of little things that you believe shouldn’t be bothering you, but they are. Have you found yourself on Google trying to figure yourself out only to find article after article about “childhood trauma”? I feel you. You are not alone. Together, I believe we can reduce your suffering, find direction, and feel happiness once again. My office is a safe and affirming space for all LGBTQ+ people.

Whether you are seeking refuge and healing from trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, identity issues, suicidal ideation, or various other life complexities, I strive to be a safe and welcoming space for you. I am a strong advocate for meeting people where they are.
