Therapists in Memphis, TN

As a therapist I help individuals and couples identify areas in their life where changes can be made.The relationships in your life may be dissatisfying or maybe you are going through a difficult situation that is beyond your control. Together, we can work to uncover what is getting in the way of you living life with purpose and satisfaction.

Life can get hard. We help you get unstuck.

The power of your problems will not last forever. Don’t allow unwanted feelings to go untreated. You do not have to continue suppressing hurt, shame, guilt, depression, anxiety, etc. Life can be challenging. It is okay to retreat & gather yourself. In boxing, a fighter utilizes the corner-man to gain insight for the next round. Allow me to be your corner-man, helping you prepare for your next round in life, marriage, your relationship, career, and/or realizing your own happiness. Some rounds may be more trying than others, leading us to make adjustments; however, we will not lose the fight for your improved well-being!

Are you feeling so overwhelmed and frustrated that you just don't know how to move forward? Are you frustrated that life just doesn’t seem to be moving in the direction you’d like it to go at the moment? Maybe overwhelmed with negative thoughts, patterns, and past experiences? Life happens all over our plans sometimes and that can definitely hinder our progress and impact our daily quality of life. It can be hard to determine how to move forward, where to start, and develop a concrete plan to get there without getting stressed beyond a level that we can manage.

Cayce views counseling as a sacred process that involves connection, recovery, and hope. Through her own clinical experience, she recognizes the courage it takes for clients to allow their vulnerability to overpower the paralysis of shame and fear. As Brene Brown once wrote, "You either walk into your story and own your truth, or you live outside of your story, hustling for your worthiness." Cayce's ultimate desire is to provide a safe place for you to come, be heard, and walk through your own story towards healing.

The most important parts of mental wellness are the ability to increase one’s self-awareness and broaden one’s perspective. As your counselor, I will provide a safe and judgment free environment for you to gain a better understanding of whatever issues you are dealing with as an individual, couple, or family including marital/relationship, mental health issues. The main goal of most clients is "to feel better," and I am here to help you make that goal more specific so that you can grow in the areas most important to you. I also strive to destigmatize counseling for men, Black / African-Americans, and other minority groups.

We all embark on the journey of life at the same starting point. We travel down the road before us, trying to carve out a path that will lead us to the kind of life that will bring us joy. However, there are times when that path leads us off the course of happiness and fulfillment, and into the unexpected. I enjoy working with individuals with traits and tendencies of attachment that manifests by way of questioning self-worth, feeling unworthy of love, fear that healthy relationships cannot exist, obsession with loss and difficulty moving forward, taking on others feelings and beliefs as your own, guilt/shame.

In today's world, it is harder than ever to be a child or teenager. Navigating childhood development, social media, school and parental expectations along with so much more can impact an individual's mental health. My role as a therapist is to provide a safe, judgment-free, and nurturing space to foster processing, healthy interpersonal, and coping skills. When we provide children and teens with critical thinking and communication skills, emotional literacy, and a growth mindset, we offer this generation tools and skills for a brighter and more sustainable future.

I am a licensed clinical professional counselor with the mental health service provider specialty. I am fully qualified to work with both children and adults. I have over fifteen years of experience as a former school counselor working with children of all ages. I also worked as a community counselor/therapist for over twenty years helping families resolve conflicts and stay together. I helped with parenting issues as well as behavior modification for children.

Dr. Yvonne Osborne is a clinical and forensic psychologist in private practice in Memphis. Her practice is limited to psychological evaluations for academic placements, disability determinations, vocational rehabilitation evaluations, conservatorships, and mental injury as well as employment decisions, competency to stand trial, job selection, visa applications, and nursing homes/residential facilities placements.

I work with clients that present with a variety of issues - depression, anxiety, addiction - often stemming from underlying issues with codependency, low self-worth, family of origin issues, and unresolved trauma. I see individuals, couples, and adolescents. If appropriate, I like working with clients in a group setting where peer support and identification with others help clients feel less misunderstood, alone or different.

Connection to self & others is central to human life. Therefore, I prioritize cultivating a secure therapeutic relationship with clients characterized by safety, authenticity, & consistency. From this base, I have the honor of supporting clients as they foster a deep level of personal restoration & growth. I have worked with adolescent & adult clients across multiple settings to guide them towards healing wounds from depression, anxiety, familial/relational dysfunction, & various forms of dependency, among other issues.

Poet Maya Angelou wrote: "There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you". Opening oneself is a courageous and vulnerable act and I want you to know that I will provide you a space to explore at your own pace, and a place to feel known, heard and accepted as you journey in your healing. As part of the process I help you identify and foster your strengths while allowing you to explore your personal path to healing. I utilize talk as well as expressive arts therapies to meet your unique needs and comfort level.

I believe people can heal. Humans are amazing, resilient, beings and watching them learn about themselves and develop new skills to cope with being human is inspiring to me. I believe we come here with all we need to be who we are and it is brave soul work of uncovering, discovering and discarding what is not ours or no longer serves us. I get to be a light on that journey for them, guiding them towards healthier ways to live.  Sara is LGBTQ affirming and she strives for cultural competency in her work and in the world.

I work with couples, families and adolescents. What they all have in common is a feeling of why is this happening to me? What do I do now? Is everyone doing better than I am? Is everyone managing so much easier than we are? Why is my marriage so difficult? Is parenting this hard for everyone? I know that life can be complicated, and it does not come with a manual. My goal is to work with clients to face and navigate their life so that they can gain perspective and grow. My love is working with clients so they can move through this world in such a way that they can be strong mentally and in healthy families and relationships.
