As a therapist, my job is to help you find and nurture the seeds of healing that we all carry within us. Sometimes, we are so distressed and anxious that we cannot see it for ourselves and need help to find it. Working together as a team, I can help you be the healthy person you were destined to be.

You may understand your patterns and still find yourself repeating them. Perhaps anxiety keeps you on edge, you and your partner struggle to feel heard, or addiction is affecting someone you love. I help individuals, couples, and families understand what keeps them stuck and work toward meaningful change. I am Richard Turnham, LPC-S, LADC-S, with 17 years of counseling experience. My approach begins with getting to know you—your experiences, motivations, fears, strengths, and ways of coping. Together, we explore the roots of painful patterns and build practical ways to respond differently. I enjoy working with couples on communication, recurring conflict, trust, and emotional connection. My addiction experience includes helping people in recovery and supporting spouses, parents, and other family members affected by a loved one's substance use. I also work with anxiety, grief, trauma, depression, boundaries, and self-worth. My style is warm, honest, and collaborative. I want you to feel understood and supported while also having room to examine difficult truths and make changes. I am a Christian and welcome people of all faiths and no faith; spiritual perspectives are included according to your preferences. Please contact me with your available days and times, insurance or private-pay preference, and whether you prefer video or in-person sessions.

Therapy with me is collaborative, practical, and refreshingly human. I bring extensive experience in relationships, sexuality, trauma, and neurodivergence, along with a genuine curiosity about what makes each person tick. You won’t find judgment, canned advice, or a one-size-fits-all approach here. Instead, we’ll make sense of the patterns that keep showing up, explore what’s underneath them, and find strategies that actually fit your life. If you’re looking for a therapist who can handle complicated conversations, appreciate nuance, and help you create meaningful change while still being a real person in the room, we may be a great fit.

I meet clients with compassion and a skilled, experienced intellect focused on helping you find lasting solutions quickly. I provide a safe and understanding space free of judgement. I won't waste your time or money, but I also want to take the time in the first sessions to get to know you and your situation well enough so that when we begin to apply solutions, they are strategic, effective and bring you lasting relief from your pain and concerns. I enjoy doing counseling. I've been in private practice as a licensed doctoral psychologist for many years. I also understand the therapy process from having used counseling for myself. Give me a call and let see if I am a good fit for you and the situation you want help with.

Do you feel seen? Do you feel heard? Do you feel you matter? Those are the ingredients that build connection. And connection is vitally important for our happiness. However, so often today that's exactly what we find is missing. And life can hand us things we don't know how to deal with. I'd love to work with you to help you build strategies that build connection between yourself and those you care about. I’m deeply moved by the work people do for repair and healing. Share your story with me. I will listen without judgment and with compassion for your struggle.

I am drawn to raw unfiltered courage. Going to therapy a brave choice and it takes tenacity and grit to feel differently and make changes in our lives. When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we become the author who writes the brave new ending. Together we will examine the thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that are holding you back identify the new choices and practices that will move you toward more authentic and wholehearted living. Rarely is that decision a whim or an impulse, and most likely you've been thinking about this for a while. Now here you are; being curious and maybe nervous and scared at the same time. In my opinion - that is bravery and brave things are rarely comfortable, but always worth trying. Whether you are looking to make a shift in your relationships, provide help and guidance for your children, or you have reached a point in your own life where you no longer want to "figure it out alone"- you have come to a good place to get moving. It can get better. We all struggle at times - with anxiety, depression, and stress - along with the circumstances in our lives that contribute to these feelings. The "feelings" themselves are never wrong. Where we get into trouble (and can feel stuck in them) is when we can't make sense of it all and isolation creeps in. You're not in this alone.

Something within you wants to emerge, yet you feel stuck and bound by beliefs like, "I'm not good enough," "It's too late for me," "I am shameful," or, "I'm broken." Often you feel you're watching your life rather than living it. You love your people, but you struggle to express it fully. You are carrying the weight of broken systems and feel the ache of a deep grief you can't quite name. You started this work because you want to help; now you feel like you're always in trouble. You desperately want to connect to Spirit and community, but have been harmed by church or religion. You're ready to come home to your body, to your Self. I seek to create a safe container in which you can explore your innermost landscapes, heal from trauma, release binds, and move from survival to thriving. Rooted in somatic, feminist, and liberation psychologies, my therapeutic work incorporates EMDR, parts work, and mindfulness, alongside nature-based and narrative approaches. I offer a warm, attuned presence grounded in compassion and reverence for your innate wisdom and ability to heal and grow. I support adults, pre-teens, teens, couples, and families, including folks who are engaged in or exploring non-monogamous relationship structures. It would be an honor to walk alongside you on your journey. Let's begin!

The therapeutic approach I use helps to increase self-awareness & promotes growth. By gaining insight, clients can develop a deeper understanding how their past impacts the present. This form of treatment helps the unconscious become conscious so long-term change can be made possible

I became a therapist because I needed one. I lost my mom when I was 18, and in the years that followed I struggled with anxiety and depression and reached for whatever would take the edge off. When I finally sat down with a therapist, it changed my life. Not because it fixed everything right away, but because for the first time I had a space to say the things I had never said out loud. As a gay man, I know what it is like to carry parts of yourself quietly for longer than you should have had to. That lived experience shapes how I show up in the room. Affirming care is not something I do. It is something I live.

I returned to school later in life, initially to show my boys I believed in education. Took Psy 101 my first semester and as they say the rest is history. After 10 years in school, a year internship and finally receiving my degree the journey began. I have worked in adolescent group home, Tennessee State Prison, Nursing/Rehabilitation Homes and community mental health. I am now in my 3rd full year of private practice, and this is where I was meant to be. I know the struggles and my hope is to make it easier on others, as they navigate their struggles. No problem is too small or obstacles too large. At the end of the day my hope is to help people find who they want to be and to learn to be successful at that.

Psychologist

VIEW PROFILE

I work with clients from diverse backgrounds and identities experiencing anxiety, life transitions, and stress. I use an integrated and personalized approach to best suit your needs. I do not believe a "one style fits all" approach to therapy takes into account individual and cultural differences. As we build rapport and explore your therapeutic goals, I will implement culturally sensitive and evidence-base interventions (e.g.,CBT, ACT, DBT, EFT, IPT) as needed using a humanistic and strengths-based approach. Your therapeutic treatment plan will be trauma-informed, culturally responsive and sensitive, and take into consideration the intersectionality of your identities. My clinical approach acknowledges how various forms of inequity can present unique challenges for many individuals, which can have a negative impact on physical and mental health and wellness.
