Therapists in Knoxville, TN

Sex is a normal, necessary part of human existence yet many people experience problems with sex including pain, lack of desire, or an inability to reach orgasm. Have you been avoiding talking to a sex therapist because you are afraid they’ll judge you? I will never judge you. Nothing you say is going to shock me, scare me, or make me stop working with you. Some people need a safe place to explore their sexual or gender identity. If you have been waiting for someone to be able to help you understand sexual thoughts, behaviors, and preferences then email me today

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years experience working with children, adolescents, and adults. I enjoy practicing from a Christian platform but also respect and honor other religions/spirituality/and beliefs. I received a Masters of Social Work from the University of Alabama and a Bachelors in Psychology from the University of Tennessee. Additionally, I have an emotional support dog in my office. My Chcoclate Lab, Jed :)

I welcome people with a wide range of life issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties and general stress, as well as children and adolescents with behavioral, emotional and attentional problems. My approach is tailored to your needs and goals, but usually includes a focus on understanding how you got where you are. This kind of insight can be vitally important in figuring out a practical way to get to a better place in life. When working with kids and teens, I always involve their parents to some extent, so they can better understand and help their children.

One of my goals for a client is for them to gain self-efficacy for a self-directed plan of recovery.

The areas that I help my clients with are for those dealing with anxiety, depression, codependency, low emotional intelligence, addictions (especially sex/porn addiction), personality disorders and trauma. I find that people are looking for ways to deal and cope with the stress and challenges in their lives and unfortunately most people do not cope with their problems in a healthy way; instead they will find ways to cope by escaping, keeping themselves busy and distracted, basically never dealing directly with the problem and defer it for another time, but that time usually doesn't come.

FOCUS: Trauma Recovery, Divorce Recovery, Marriage Counseling, Christian Counseling, Premarital Counseling. I am trained in Gottman's Couples therapy, EMDR-Trauma, EFIT-Emotional, CBT-Cognitive Behavioral, Biblical counseling, and Prepare & Enrich Premarital Counseling.

The clients I work best with are those who are motivated to change, or curious to see what they could change, to improve their own mental health, and relationships. I enjoy work well with clients who recognize that "something" needs to change, even if they don't know what that "something" is yet. A client should hopefully come to the first session with some kind of goal, even if that goal is as simple as, "I want to feel less depressed/anxious/stuck/reactive/addicted."

You are feeling disorganized, distracted, or confused about life direction and struggling to anchor to a sense of self or personal values. Maybe you are struggling to acknowledge, feel, and express your emotions, and experience yourself shutting down. Or perhaps you are feeling stuck in negative self-talk, often struggling with perfectionistic tendencies and cycles of shame.

I am accepting new clients. I have over 25 years combined EMS and military experience as a paramedic. My passion is for Veterans, EMS, First Responders, and 911 Dispatchers.

My desire is to help those who find themselves lost in the abyss. I have been there. I know what you are going through. I can help you climb out of the chasm you find yourself in. I will give all that I am to help you and your family. I also counsel teens, young adults who are struggling with life's issues.

Minton Family Therapy (MFT) is a husband and wife, marriage and family therapy practice based in Knoxville, TN offering both in person and Telehealth psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families. MFT seeks to treat the whole person (or couple, or family) in the context of whatever may be impeding personal, professional, physical and emotional growth. Taking both a creative and integrative approach, potential patients can expect to explore longstanding patterns of interaction that may hinder current relationships and begin to reshape those patterns into a more healthy and whole self.

Accepting new clients. Email is the best way to reach me. Thank you for stopping by my page! As someone who has been on both sides of the therapy couch, I understand how scary it can be to open up to a stranger about your life situation. It is for this reason that I am here to help. I believe in therapy, and the changes that are possible with the right provider.

My ideal client is a woman, from college age to mid 50’s, who is going though various life transitions, such as divorce/separation, career changes, navigation parenting/family dynamics, new relationships, and empty nesting. Life’s transitions aren’t always easy. Tackling these times with a life coach, however, makes approaching these times easier—and can even make them a positive pathway to your future. As a certified Life Coach, our sessions are oriented towards the future. With my assistance, clients should be ready to assess their goals and formulate plans to align values and actions with personal goals.
