Things haven’t turned out exactly as you planned. Whether that’s in your relationships, at school, or just - overall life trajectory. You feel frustrated running into the same problems and don’t know how to move forward. Does any of this sound familiar? I certainly understand what it’s like to feel out of control but I assure you that reaching out for help is a significant step to lasting change. As a clinician, I provide a supportive yet scientifically informed space to confront life's issues. My treatment approach involves collaboration: the formation of a team requiring both the expertise of the therapist and the client. No one knows you better than you. And as a team, we will work together to discover the solutions that best fit your needs. It takes courage to ask for help. I respect that and would be honored to be apart of your journey. If you’re ready to make the next step, feel free to reach out at anytime via phone or email. Until then, John D. Murphy, M.MFT *Supervised by Dr. Tracy Hall #906

We all enjoy the excitement of learning and living a fulfilled life. However, we often don’t take the time we need to take care of ourselves. For many people, this fast pace lifestyle leads to stress in different parts of our lives (careers, financial crises, children, spouses and parents) and can begin to spiral out of control and cause real stress. This can lead to anxiety, depression, addictions, anger and other painful challenges. Allan J. Katz will help you successfully understand and master the ways in which different aspects of your life interact and affect emotional health. From sex addiction counseling, stress management and couples therapy, you will discover new ways to reduce anxiety and depression, and improve the intimacy in your relationship.

In life, we all experience the tension of joy and pain, mountain tops and valleys. As human beings, built for relationship, we need others alongside us in that journey. Sometimes we need a little extra professional help to walk through particularly painful or confusing seasons. I would love to partner with you if you find yourself in one of these seasons, or if you just need some support along the way. You don't have to go it alone, there is always hope. If you find yourself in a place that feels stuck or hope feels difficult to find, feel free to reach out to me- I'd love to connect with you and talk about what you are needing, and how I can help!

College can be a stressful, but rewarding experience. Do you sometimes feel like you don't quite fit in? Do you feel emotionally unprepared at times and honestly, a little awkward? You're not alone, and I want to help you through this journey. If you feel anxious, sad, or that you lack confidence in your abilities, allow me the opportunity to help you through these problems in a virtual therapy environment. You can attend therapy right from your dorm room, in between classes, or wherever and whenever you choose. If you are supporting students, you matter too! I would love to work with you to be your best self.

Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Lynchburg, VA

Licensed to offer therapy services in Virginia, Tennessee, and Michigan, Dr. Honeycutt is often sought out due to the advanced IFS (Level 3) training he received in 2010 under the model's founder, Dr. Richard Schwartz. With particular interest in how the ancient Judeo-Christian understanding of the psyche (soul) overlaps with modern theories of mental health, he has spoken on this subject at conferences, educational seminars, and university classrooms. Approaching work with clients from a Christian framework of psycho-spiritual health, Dr. Honeycutt combines modern-day techniques and psychological research with an ancient understanding of the human condition as created by God. Non-Christian clients who are interested in such an approach are also welcome. Sessions are typically offered online for those living outside the Lynchburg area.

Licensed Professional Counselor
Knoxville, TN

Everyone has a story. I am a person-centered licensed professional counselor who believes in collaborative work with the client. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as well as solution focused therapy to help my clients reach their personal goals. I also utilize existential counseling, and multicultural counseling. In addition to seeing clients in-person in Knoxville, I am also available online to all adult residents of TN for private pay. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the therapist and client. While I am a skilled and trained professional, I am not an expert of you or your life. You have lived unique moments that define who you are. My role is to provide you with the necessary tools to help you cope with difficulties. My role is also to help you make sense of your life, help you identify your feelings, and help you become better at expressing yourself with others. Whatever it is you are struggling with, collaboration between therapist and client is key to helping you find peace and resolution.
