My name is Trish Overton, and I am a LPC-MHSP as well as a licensed school counselor. I am available to work with those of any age and stage in life. I am currently licensed as a School Counselor, and a LPC-MHSP(t). I am trained in Brainspotting and use that with my clients. I am a trauma certified counselor. I am a certified ACEs trainer for the state of Tennessee.
My approach
I love using person centered therapy, mindfulness, and Brainspotting with my clients in my sessions. I feel that I am a tool in the clients healing. I do believe there can be healing from trauma and it is my hope as a therapist to help clients to heal.
My focus
I work with clients ranging from ages of 15 years old and up. I do individual therapy, some family therapy, and trauma focused therapy. I work with faith based clients if that is something you prefer integrating into therapy.
My communication style
I try to make my sessions comfortable and as stress free as possible. I try to be relatable with my clients, as everyone has struggles and I don't want my clients to feel that I am any better than they are as the therapist.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always wanted to do therapy, but was not able to until later in my life. I have been through my own trials and traumas, and that has made me even more passionate about what I do now and wanting to help my clients.
My goals for you
I work with the clients needs to set the goals, and approach them at the pace the client can meet those goals.
My first session with you
The firs session I do a lot of history gathering and ask questions about the clients needs in therapy.
