Hi! I'm Caitlin - thank you for visiting my page and considering me to help you in achieving your best life!
I am Licensed Professional Counselor, Mental Health Service Provider (LPC-MHSP) in the state of Tennessee with over 4 years of experience working as a psychotherapist. I hold a Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and have undergone extensive training in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns, most commonly issues pertaining to: depression, anxiety, relationships, parenting problems, career challenges, ADHD, and trauma.
My therapy style is solution-focused and interactive. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic and integrative approaches based on your specific needs. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific goals.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you in whatever way I can. I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
