Anger Management Therapists in Dickson, TN

I would be honored to assist and support you on your journey to a happier, more fufilled life with healthier relationships. With compassion and empathy I will help you discover the basis of your anger, anxiety, depression and other difficult feelings that have precipitated your struggles. Together we will explore your behaviors which have resulted from your hidden conflict and help you foster insight so that you do not repeat painful patterns that affect you and your relationships in the future. We will help you discover strength, clarity and confidence to resolve your issues and embrace a self-assured, empowered and positive life.

You are invited to come talk with me in my relaxed spacious office. Coming to therapy is a difficult decision for many people, but you can trust that your visits are private and confidential. Making the first phone call is often the hardest step. You deserve to feel better and talk therapy is highly effective. We can talk about your concerns and stressors and develop a plan to help you regain your ability to handle life's challenges.

I hope to create a space where you feel able to fully express yourself, without judgement or an emotionally-charged response. Opening up to someone, especially a stranger, can be scary. I believe that healing can come when we trust others enough with our problems to ask for help. Everyone at some point in their life could use someone to help them process through the difficult experiences that life sometimes holds. I would like to explore these issues together, in a setting where you feel comfortable being heard and understood.

The idea of a one-size-fits-all therapy does not exist. You may have tried therapy before, but know this, ALL therapists are different and what works for one person in therapy might not for another. My approach focuses on tailoring therapy to suit your unique needs. I use a combination of mind-body (somatic) and traditional talk therapies to help my clients heal and live a more balanced life. Our physical bodies play a vital role in our overall well-being and is often overlooked in traditional therapy. Contact me for a free consultation. I am licensed in Tennessee, Florida, California, and Hawaii

With compassion,insight and acceptance, I can help you explore the issues which prevent you from success in your personal and professional relationships. I believe that we all possess much of the knowledge needed to answer life's questions; however, as with all things, we sometimes simply forget where to look. I see my work primarily as a guide, helping my clients find their own answers and their own happiness.I view therapy as a way to gain self awareness in order to understand one's pattern of relating to others and dealing with life's challenges.

Understanding that for most, making the decision to enter therapy is a difficult step, it is essential that I not only connect and relate, but I provide a degree of noticeable relief or insight within the first session. This is especially true with adolescents, young adults and men, who tend to be resistant at the onset of the therapy process. I meet my clients where they are at, build upon their strengths to address their struggles, establish mutually agreed upon goals, and become an advocate for their overall growth and well-being. I am affirming, but direct in my approach.

I offer individual therapy for adolescents and adults. Sessions are in-person or via telehealth.

Do you struggle with feeling “good enough”? Are you sick of feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and stressed? Do you feel like some days you are just going through the motions or barely have your head above water? I specialize in helping people understand themselves better so that they can actively work towards healing. I am passionate about helping individuals that struggle with anxiety, traumatic events, perfectionism, overthinking, fear, life transitions, and faith based concerns.

Why do I feel this way and why do I react to situations like this? There are answers to these questions and I really enjoy helping people find them! I am not just a passive listener. I enjoy actively helping you build real life action steps to manage your stressors and understand yourself better. I enjoy helping individuals (ages 18+) with depression & anxiety, parenting skills, life transitions, traumatic events, faith based concerns, college life stage, overthinking, and perfectionism. I also have a passion for working with other therapists and will strive to personalize a therapy approach that feels like the best fit for you.

Food. It should be nourishing, enjoyable, even celebratory. But for you, it's been a lifelong battleground. Disordered eating has you stuck in a cycle of restriction, guilt, and shame. You've tried it all – diets, willpower, maybe even a cupcake for breakfast (hey, no judgment). Yet, here you are again. Hi, I'm Dr. Jermeckia Sandefer, and I get it. Food used to be my battleground too. I specialize in helping individuals, like you, break free from the cycle of disordered eating. I've not only helped countless people, but I've also walked a similar path.
