I started Aptitude Behavioral Services, LLC to service school-age children in the East TN area. I love working with children through pre-teen ages and have also worked with a few higher-functioning teenagers. My typical day involves working with families that face challenges with behavior and working directly with children to decrease these behaviors while building skill deficits. I enjoy including family in my sessions and want to empower caregivers and family members so that they are equipped to handle behavioral challenges.

During our lifetime, we humans go through many life transitions. Helping women, children, and teens succeed through life's many demands is my focus and passion. Working with women who are experiencing a life transition is one of my primary strengths. The second area of focus within my practice is working with parents and individuals who are neurodivergent or who have a child who is neurodivergent. Being a parent of a neurodivergent child myself I enjoy connecting and helping parents and individuals as they navigate this oftentimes difficult journey.

If not for the friends and counselors in my life, I don't know where I would be today. Growing up in Colombia during a time of civil unrest, I witnessed much suffering and was personally touched by it as I experienced the murder of my father. The effects this had on me and my family are what lead me to the place of seeking help. We all need someone who will listen, comfort, and guide us towards health and healing. As a recipient of great care, I passionately aspire to give what has been given to me.

I have a passion for helping families and young people. Parenting in all stages of life can be difficult, which is why I seek to provide support, understanding, and tools to help enhance your family relationships. I work directly with caregivers to manage behaviors of toddlerhood. I connect well with middle schoolers who find it difficult to connect with others. I also enjoy helping teenagers find hope and healing while overcoming depression and trauma. I’m like a teacher in that you should learn something from me, like a doctor in that you should overcome symptoms, and like a firefighter in that I help keep kids safe.

Therapy should be a space where you feel completely at ease being yourself, where you can express every emotion without the fear of judgment. It is essential that this environment allows you to be open and authentic, knowing that all feelings are welcomed and respected. Our work together is fundamentally a collaboration; while I provide guidance and support, you are the expert on your own life. You know best what you want and what you feel, and it is my role to honor and facilitate that understanding. Trust is the cornerstone of our therapeutic relationship, and I view it as a profound privilege when clients place their trust in me.

My name is Christine Lawson, and in addition to anxiety and depression, I have worked with those who are in crisis due to self-harming behaviors as well as thoughts of suicide. With 15+ years of experience as a special education teacher before refocusing on counseling in 2019, I have also worked extensively with autism, ADHD, learning disabilities and behavior disorders. If you need a safe space to work on those things that are blocking your joy, I'm here for you.

Hi! I'm Kevin- your mindful therapist for the LGBTQIA+ community, trauma survivors, and those battling the twists and turns of anxiety and depression. I think of therapy like gardening. Taming the overgrowth of ignored emotions, tending to the roots of your experiences, and pruning away what no longer serves you. I am here to support you as you hone your green thumb for personal growth. It takes work and sometimes is uncomfortable. But thankfully discomfort leads to growth. Together, we'll meet that discomfort in a different way to cultivate an inner landscape where you can flourish.

Young adulthood brings many new insights, transitions, and challenges as you are faced with the task of deciding who you are and who you want to be. Many of these adjustments can be painful and bring to light issues that you’ve never noticed before. Whether it’s troubling family history, current relational wounds, or other struggles like anxiety, my therapeutic philosophy is rooted in the belief that you deserve a space to show up exactly as you are. I have experience helping individuals who have experienced trauma, sexuality exploration, life transitions, relational problems, and a wide range of other mental health struggles.
