EMDR Therapists in Columbia, TN

Are there things in your past that you just can’t seem to get over? Sometimes when bad things happen to us it causes us to believe things about ourselves that are just not true. Intellectually we may know that we are safe now, and that we are lovable and capable human beings. However, when we’ve experienced trauma, it may still feel like deep down we are not safe, that we are not good enough, that we are not capable of moving past these events so that we can become the best version of ourselves.

Being a good listener by engaging with you is paramount to what I see as working with current issues client's face. Understanding that clients search for solutions to their problems, knowing and learning how to help themselves become stronger, whether a survivor of trauma, infidelity, substance abuse or neglect, or anger you may hit a breaking point. Please know that together we can take you to the next level, to what works best for setting goals and interventions best done where change can happen. Don't put off today where you want to be tomorrow-change can make a difference.

My name is Katie Ledbetter. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and have been working as a psychotherapist since 2011. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of TN Knoxville and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Middle Tennessee State University. My passion is helping individuals heal from complex trauma, using EMDR.

My name is Tori Rogers. I am passionate about helping people move through pain, find empowerment, regulate their nervous systems, and connect to themselves in a more meaningful way. I believe, at times, we all feel like strangers to ourselves. I believe we are already whole and can feel shattered at the same time. I believe that the antidote to shame is self love. I believe that there is no better vehicle to connection to oneself than the natural world. I believe in chasing dreams. I believe that tapping into one’s intuition is the key to empowerment. I believe in holistic healing (which occurs mostly OUTSIDE of the therapy office).

Tired of years of therapy and no true, lasting healing? I work with individuals that have tried many forms of therapy, but still feel the deep pain of feeling alone, stuck, in a toxic relationship again, frequently being triggered, and haunted by their past. I specialize in working with adults who experienced childhood sexual abuse, narcissistic abuse, and trauma. Childhood trauma doesn't have to continue to have its grip on you, and take away your happiness! True healing is possible with EMDR. Over the 30 years that I have been in this field, I have seen hundreds of clients get their life, joy and happiness back.

I am trained to treat using EMDR, CBT, DBT, MRT, and TF-CBT. I believe that everyone has the capacity and ability to change and I look forward to speaking with you about how I may be able to assist you and your loved ones.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Alcohol and Drug Addictions Counselor in the State of Tennessee with over 14 years of experience.

One of the scariest parts of therapy is the unknown. Our fear of therapy focuses on what we will have to say, the things we will have to feel but rarely when we think of therapy do we focus on the things we may find within ourselves. Like the courage to speak power to our own voice. The reality that we are not the sum of the worst things that have happened to us. Hell, maybe that we have always been valuable and we never deserved the way we were treated, the hurt we were given or the hurt that is still present within us. It is through our therapeutic process that we are able to organize your thoughts and prioritize your voice.

My name is Christy Tunnell, and I am a licensed Marriage and Family therapist. My approach to therapy is one of open and honest communication between myself and my clients. I like to be direct but at the same time gentle. I also utilize humor in my approach when it is needed. My focus has always been helping whomever I am working with become the best versions of themselves.

You may be struggling with a life transition, anxiety, depression, fears, or a trauma history that keeps resurfacing. You deserve a break. You deserve to be free and "un-stuck". It's time for you to take some time for yourself, make some changes, move forward, and live up to your potential. I am interested in your goals, where you are now, and how to help you get where you'd like to go.

Do you feel haunted by things in your past that keep interfering with you here in the present? Are there issues that you have emotional reactions to that don't make sense? Bad relationships and traumatic events are difficult to process and resolve. They can linger and affect your abilities in many ways. Depression, anxiety, low self esteem, poor relationships, poor communication, and other coping problems can be a result.
