Hello! I’m glad you found me. I have been a therapist for a long time and have recently opened up my own practice in Southaven, MS. I would be honored to work with you to find solutions to whatever is troubling you at this point in your journey. Please reach out by email or phone/text and I will get back to you as soon as I am able. I will support you where you are and help you to get to where you would like to be. My practice name is Healing Home and this name is based on the idea that we all need a place to heal, a safe place to belong, to grow, a place to call home. Finding peace with oneself and with others can be found at the Healing Home.

My counseling style is warm and inviting. I believe in being completely non-judgmental, sensitive and compassionate. I want to start where you are wherever you are in your journey through different human experiences. My psychotherapy approach is a combination of cognitive-behavioral, motivational interviewing, interpersonal, solution focused and client centered. 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, inability to receive feedback without feelings of failure/rejection and experiencing confusion/seeking clarity around identity. In my down time, I love to relax and have a good time. For fun, I enjoy listening to music and singing, traveling, trying new restaurants and foods, reading, laughing and spending time with loved ones.

You deserve a safe space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. I provide compassionate, person-centered therapy for children (ages 3–12), teens (13–17), adults, families, and couples. My goal is to meet you where you are, build a trusting therapeutic relationship, and help you feel empowered as you work toward healing and meaningful change. I specialize in trauma and related concerns, including sexual abuse, domestic violence, childhood abuse or neglect, traumatic experiences, dissociation, panic attacks, night terrors, chronic worry, irritability, sleep and concentration difficulties, and substance use. I also support clients navigating stress, emotional challenges, relationships, and other life transitions. My approach is affirming, strengths-based, and focused on treating the whole person. I believe you already possess strengths, abilities, and resources that can be built upon throughout the therapeutic process. Using evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, I work collaboratively with each client to develop healthy coping skills, increase self-awareness, process difficult experiences, and create lasting positive change. Clients describe me as empathetic, understanding, encouraging, and attentive. I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can feel comfortable being yourself. I believe healing begins with trust, compassion, and feeling genuinely seen and understood. I offer in-person and virtual therapy throughout Tennessee, with weekday, evening, and weekend availability. I offer a free 15-minute consultation and accept self-pay and insured clients, including Medicaid/TennCare. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel overwhelming, but you do not have to navigate it alone. If you are ready to begin or simply have questions about whether therapy may be right for you, please reach out by phone, text, or email through my profile or website. I look forward to connecting with you and supporting you on your healing journey. CALL ME, TEXT ME, EMAIL ME, and on my websites. https://stephanie-ranson.clientsecure.me.

I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) dedicated to providing ethical, evidence-based mental health care. My professional approach is rooted in a holistic, patient-centered model that respects your individual needs, experiences, and cultural background. I believe every patient is different, which is why I curate individualized care plans that may include psychotherapy, medication management, lifestyle adjustments, or a combination of these approaches. My goal is to promote healing, recovery, and overall well-being while building a trusting therapeutic relationship. I hold a Master of Science in Nursing from St. Thomas University and bring extensive knowledge and expertise in diagnosing, treating, and evaluating a wide range of mental health conditions. By combining clinical knowledge, patient advocacy, and the adaptability of telemedicine, I ensure that my practice continually evolves with the most up-to-date psychiatric nursing standards. The process begins with an initial consultation where we review your history, current symptoms, and overall wellness. From there, we develop a personalized treatment plan together, adjusting as needed through ongoing communication. I invite you to book your appointment today so we can begin working toward lasting progress and meaningful change.

Hi! My name is Matthew Brown and I am a board certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner. I graduated with my MSN in 2022. I work with children starting at 6 years old all the way up to geriatrics. I am here to help you lead a more fulfilling life as we navigate this world of mental health. Let’s get started!

Many of the students I work with are navigating a lot internally—stress, anxiety, self-doubt, or feeling unsure about their path. You might find yourself overthinking, putting pressure on yourself to have everything figured out, or struggling in relationships while trying to balance it all. You may look like you’re doing fine on the outside, but feel overwhelmed or stuck underneath. You don’t have to have everything figured out. If you’re open to growing, gaining clarity, and building a stronger relationship with yourself, we’d likely work well together.

Feeling Overwhelmed by the News Cycle? Struggling with the stressors of balancing school, work and personal life? You're Not Alone — Let's Navigate It Together. In today’s world, the constant stream of political unrest, and distressing headlines can leave even the most resilient among us feeling anxious, hopeless, or emotionally exhausted. If you’re finding it hard to unplug, sleep, or focus — you're not overreacting. You're responding to real stress, and you don’t have to face it alone. As a licensed therapist, I specialize in helping individuals process the emotional toll of living through turbulent times. Together, we’ll explore how current events are impacting your mental health, build strategies to manage stress and anxiety, and create space for you to reconnect with what brings you meaning, purpose, and peace.

As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I recognize that taking the first step toward seeking therapy can be difficult, which is why I want to help clients feel comfortable discussing some of life's most challenging topics. As I near the end of my education in Counseling Psychology, I have honed my experience in trauma-informed care. I have experience in working with individuals across the lifespan, but have focused my recent work with adults aged 18+ with extensive trauma and anxiety. I balance empathy with honesty to help clients feel validated, yet challenged. I believe you are the expert on your own life. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. My role is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where we can explore your experiences and goals to create the life you want for yourself. I always start with an introductory session where we will spend the time discussing the challenges that brought you here, outlining your goals, and ensuring my approach aligns with your needs. Along with the initial logistics and administrative details, I will ask questions about your background, previous experiences, and what is currently bringing you distress. You set the pace: you only need to share what you are comfortable with. More importantly, it is equally important that you interview me. You have the floor to ask about my methods or background to ensure we are a great fit.

Hi there! My name is Christie Cutshall, LCSW located in Eastern Tennessee with my husband, three bonus teenagers, and two dogs. When I'm not working, I enjoy hiking, spending time with my family, gardening, and cooking. As a graduate of East Tennessee State University, and a practicing social worker for the last ten years, I have gained valuable experience as a mental health clinician. In my experience, I believe growing requires changing and improving the environment in which we grow; only then can we truly thrive!

I offer my clients the best professional help with a balance of connection, support, and efficacy.

I work with teens and emerging adults who feel overwhelmed by expectations and often leave conversations thinking, “No one really gets me,” or, “Why is it so hard to be around people?” If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out by yourself. I use a range of evidence-based approaches to help you gain insight into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we’ll identify patterns that are holding you back, uncover emotional triggers, and develop tools that help you build confidence, resilience, and self-compassion. Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and centered on your goals. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs, which might include mindfulness work, emotional regulation strategies, or understanding how past experiences shape your present.
