Adults Therapists in Ooltewah, TN

I am a professor of Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and I work exclusively with distressed couples. I prefer Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) because of its extraordinary (researched and documented) improvement rate (90%) and its success rate of 73%. My ideal clients are mid/late life couples who are paralyzed in their relationship distance due to issues such as: infidelity, trauma, physical illness, financial or family stressors, or end of life issues. I am especially invested in assisting baby boomer couples who are dealing with major life transitions including retirement, dating, remarriage (edwardstonecounseling.com).

If you have emotions that seem uncontrollable, thoughts that seem to toss you around and run rampant, or if you find that your relationships with others are often filled with hurt and miscommunication… let’s talk! As a trained therapist in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) I offer comprehensive and informed DBT therapy. This means that I offer individual therapy, DBT skills group and training, as well as phone coaching. If you have tried therapy before with little to no improvement, DBT can be the change you’ve been looking for! It provides daily skills to implement immediately, so that you can see quick change in your life.

I offer support in facing and gaining mastery over life’s many struggles, including but not limited to the following areas: trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, relationship issues, and addiction. I also provide encouragement and collaborated direction for those desiring to become the best possible version of themselves.

My previous experience focused on children's mental health, however, I also have experience with ages across the spectrum. An important aspect of counseling is willingness to be involved in the process. This can be difficult, however, together we can work to meet the goals you hope to achieve.

Life can be overwhelming, and it is easy to feel lost or alone. Maybe you feel stuck or trapped with whatever situation you find yourself in now. You may not know what your next steps are, but you know you want things to be different. The mountain that you want to climb is right there, but taking those first steps seems terrifying. I want you to know that there is hope. That your current struggles do not have to be part of your future reality. I’m passionate about helping individuals gain insight into themselves. Into their patterns of behavior, which helps them develop new coping skills and strategies to navigate life's challenges.

Depression, anxiety, trauma, burnout, and stress can cast dark shadows over our lives, sometimes without us realizing it. The ripple effects can damage the way we see ourselves and the way we treat our closest loved ones. But with the right understanding and support, you can emerge stronger and more aligned with yourself.

As a therapist, I hope to cultivate a relationship that facilitates change, wholeness, and health wherever you are in your journey.

Welcome! I'm Joelle Marlin, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Reaching out takes courage, and I'm honored you are considering contacting me. If you're struggling and realizing that you need more support for your mental health, you're in the right place. Perhaps you always felt something was "wrong with you" but are realizing that it might have been neurodivergence all along. Maybe you need to process some hard experiences 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 being part of your journey!

My goal is to hold hope for individuals, couples and families until they are able to hope for themselves. If you need a safe space to explore your truth and move toward the best version of yourself, you found that space in my office. My office (Cleveland or Chattanooga) will provide calm, comfort and support to you in the toughest of times life can throw at you.

We all experience relationship conflict, overwhelming/traumatic events, and internal struggles. My therapeutic approach is focused on helping my clients to better understand themselves and how their history has impacted their present. Along this journey, I empower clients to use certain tools and resources to move forward into the vision that they want for their future. I approach experiences and beliefs from a trauma lens, utilizing EMDR to reduce distress, regulate nervous system functioning, update neural pathways, and bridge the gap between the brain and body.

Currently accepting new child, adolescent, and family therapy clients. If your child is struggling in school, your family is experiencing separation/divorce, or your family needs someone to talk to, therapist on staff Hannah Sexton is a skillfully trained child and family therapist. She specializes working with emotional disturbances, anxiety, family conflict, behavioral issues, trauma, depression, separation/divorce, and more. Humans face issues all throughout life, but kids face exceptional challenges with differing stages of mental and physical development. We are here to help. You do not have to navigate this alone.

If you are feeling hopeless, out of control, or stuck about what is going on in your life, you have come to the right place. The most common issues clients come to me with are: grief, depression, anxiety, relationship problems, job/school stress, self-esteem issues, divorce care, and midlife "crisis." Also, some people seek therapy because they just feel "blah" and unfulfilled and they don't know why. If any of this rings a bell with you, let's talk! I can help by offering new perspectives, teaching coping skills, and introducing more helpful thinking patterns. Change can be so hard, but you don't have to do it alone.

My passion is supporting individuals and couples wrestling with life stressors, relational difficulties, grief, family dynamics, or trauma. Maybe you are in a life transition, feeling alone and lost. Maybe you don’t feel connected to those around you. Maybe the past haunts you and you’re just not sure how to overcome it. We’ve all experienced one challenge or another (I know. I’m human, too). Therapy can be intimidating. Just know, you’ve already been courageous – you recognized the need for change. Now, you’re looking for a therapist to join you. As a therapist, I seek to bring my true self into the room.

Being vulnerable is brave. Behind all the difficult feelings you face. The more you stand in the discomfort the more your edges soften and you begin to embrace it all and allow yourself to be seen— just as you are. I am here to listen to your story and provide prospective as you navigate and uncover the process of healing. I am passionate about working with people to recover from abusive or complex relationships, emotion regulation, and communication issues.

My passion is to help the people who have spent their lives helping others. I recently retired after 27 years in the fire service and believe this experience makes me uniquely equipped to help first responders. My practice is trauma based and I offer EMDR to help deal with the trauma in the lives of my clients. While I hope to work with many first responders this is not the only focus of my service. I have nearly 10 years experience in treating addictions. My practice is open to individual, couple, and group therapy.

Reaching out for marriage, child, or family therapy is not easy, however, there is good news. Progress can be made, relationships can heal, and families can be functional again. I am skilled at helping clients develop the needed strategies to heal hurts, process conflict, set boundaries, and build closeness. I have extensive training in a variety of therapies including Gottman Method Couple Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and other research-based tools. I focus on client's specific needs and work to find solutions for their concerns.

Are you exhausted from living with substance misuse, sexual compulsivity, or the pain of trauma? Does it feel like no matter how hard you try, nothing seems to help? Having an experienced guide to help navigate the challenges in your healing journey can make all the difference. No matter the trauma or the shape addiction takes (drugs, alcohol, sex, porn, etc.), healing depends on addressing the underlying issues and restoring connection to our bodies, ourselves, others, and the world. As you begin to heal, the need to engage in addictive behavior lessens, ultimately resulting in natural, lifelong recovery.

You’re discouraged that life isn’t measuring up to what you had hoped. You fake it so it seems like you have it all together, but you feel dissatisfied, hopeless, and empty. Feeling disconnected from the most important people in your life, and even from yourself has really taken its toll. I’m here to help. Life's hard and it’s easy to get caught up in the busyness, losing sight of what really matters. It becomes more characterized by depression, anxiety, conflict, loneliness, and addiction; more so than the peace and fulfillment that is desired. Distressing feelings like these is likely what brought you here, hoping for help!
