About Percy Ford

I am a licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Tennessee. I was first licensed in 2010. I received my masters degree in Professional Counseling from Argosy University Nashville in December 2007. Prior to that I graduated from Tuskegee University in 1997 with a degree in Social Work. While at Tuskegee University, I lettered in football for three years and was an all conference defensive lineman. I have worked in a variety of areas that include inpatient treatment settings for adolescent sex offenders and for alcohol and drug addictions. I provided sex offender treatment therapy for 10 years and have worked with families and individuals in private practice since 2012. I often use a variety of models in serving clients but prefer person centered and psycho dynamic treatment models coupled with CBT as my primary models. In my spare time I enjoy outdoor activities such as a fishing, hunting, hiking, camping, gardening and raising my beagle hounds.

“Percy is an excellent therapist. It’s so nice to have someone to talk with with a background in counseling, to whom I can present my inner self. I trust Percy as a counselor and also enjoy seeing him like a friend. I would say he offers 9 parts listening to 1 part advice, but I would also consider the advice to be more of a redirection/encouragement of goals that you present. I strong recommend him to anyone lucky enough to get him as a therapist.”
