Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP)
About John
As a licensed therapist in Tennessee with over four decades of professional experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through complex life transitions and emotional challenges. My practice focuses on addressing depression, addiction, self-esteem issues, and helping clients navigate significant life changes.
I offer compassionate counseling for individuals struggling with communication problems, isolation, life purpose questions, and emotional healing from experiences like divorce, trauma, and family dynamics. My approach is particularly attuned to supporting older adults, first responders, and those facing challenging life circumstances such as illness, aging, and family transitions.
If you choose to draw from a Christian perspective, I provide a supportive environment where clients can explore personal growth, work through guilt and shame, and develop meaningful coping strategies. My goal is to help you find hope, restore emotional balance, and rediscover your inner strength during difficult times.
