Aetna Therapists in Chattanooga, TN

Welcome! I'm Joelle Marlin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Reaching out takes courage, and I'm honored you are considering contacting me. Are you struggling in life feeling stressed, overwhelmed, misunderstood? Perhaps you always felt something was "wrong with you" but have realized that it was neurodivergence all along. Maybe you need to process some tough events in life with a caring therapist who accepts you and sees your strengths. I strive to create a warm and supportive environment where you feel heard and empowered for growth. I look forward to partnering with you in your journey!

Are you wanting to be kinder towards yourself but don't know where to start? Or are you feeling "stuck" in life, experiencing relational or communication issues, or navigating life transitions? Negative self-talk, uncertainty, and stress can impact our ability to be our best selves. I aim to provide a safe therapeutic environment in order to allow you to truly heal. My goal is to build relationships while acknowledging that you are the expert of your own story.

I have over 14 years of experience working with a variety of issues. I approach therapy in different ways with each individual based on their needs but often pull from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space in which I provide support, encouragement, and guidance. I have experience with and enjoy working with the LGBTQ+ community including completing assessments and writing letters for gender affirming surgeries. I look forward to working with you and would be honored to be part of your journey.

If you’re wrestling with anger, sadness, or anxiety, you are not alone. Perhaps your personal or professional life suffers as a result. Lost in our minds, we struggle with how to manage tough emotions and how to find small joys. Together, we will work to recapture your control, passion for life, and take steps towards growth -- helping you to be fully present for self and others. Through in person or telehealth sessions, I’m here to offer reflection and support.

Hey! I’m Catherine. With every client, my intention is to create an environment that promotes safety, authenticity, and honoring your needs to fully bloom into the person you were meant to be. I specialize in working with women seeking support with building and maintaining healthy relationships, intimacy, self-worth, boundaries, and trauma recovery from childhood abuse, sexual abuse/assault, domestic violence, emotional neglect, traumatic accidents, and other difficult life experiences. I also specialize in helping those with borderline personality disorder, anxiety, depression, and highly sensitive people (HSP).

Hi! My name is Lynne, and I am an independently contracted clinical therapist for IEG, operating under Flutter & Flourish Therapy Services, serving clients in Michigan, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. Engaging in therapy is a courageous step toward self-reflection and taking control of your life. It’s about deciding how you want and need to show up for yourself. I want to assure you that there is nothing “wrong” with you, despite what societal feedback might suggest. Our differences make our voices and lived experiences unique, and thus, our healing and progression will look different for each person.

Hi im Greg Kirkham! Im a licensed therapist, practicing for over 20 years. I specialize in treating trauma. Now, you may be saying “but I don’t have trauma!” Trauma comes in all shapes and sizes and is often not recognized as such, but almost always has a significant impact on someone’s overall mental, physical and emotional health. Trauma also presents in many different forms, including struggles with depression, anxiety and anger management. Over my career I have worked with an array of populations, including children/families, juvenile sex offenders, and even convicts.

As your therapist, my goal will be to build a trusting relationship that allows you to feel safe, heard, seen, and valued so that you have the confidence to take steps towards your individual and relational growth. We will work together to identify the barriers that have left you feeling stuck and disconnected from yourself and others, and seek to create avenues for healthy and fulfilling relationships.

Hey! I'm Dr. Andre, a licensed clinical psychologist. No matter who you are or what situation you're in, I aim to understand you and help you find relief and clarity. I provide a genuine, trusting relationship in a judgement free atmosphere to explore the concerns you are facing. I work with Men and Women facing anxiety, depression, stress, and dysfunctional patterns and lifestyles. I also work with Couples facing relationship distress. I specialize in therapy that includes a CBT, DBT, MI, SFBT, and a psychodynamic oriented style. I am currently offering sessions via secure Telehealth platforms.

Pregnancy, parenthood and fertility challenges can be so stressful and overwhelming it can be difficult to know how to manage all the emotions and intensity of the stress. It can feel like you're drowning! I would love to be there with you in the healing process.

I have advanced training in postpartum mood and anxiety disorders, traumatic birth experiences, stillbirth, child loss, pregnancy loss, reproductive trauma, assisted fertility stress and fertility challenges.
