Amy L Gould
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPCC-S, NCC, CCMHC
Hello and welcome to my private practice. Video sessions are a convenient way to do therapy from your own confidential private space. I provide counseling services via Telehealth for adult individuals. My home state is Ohio and I am only contracted in Ohio to provide any Medicaid services though I am accepting other insurances as out-of-network. I am able to accept Medicare in the states where I am licensed as I am an in-network Medicare provider. If you are seeking an assessment for disability or some other purpose, I would not be able to accept your insurance for Telehealth sessions for that purpose, just for counseling and therapy. Your video sessions deserve the same level of privacy and importance as an in-person session and most people get the most out of sessions when they give them full attention. I prefer in-person sessions since they offer the highest level of confidentiality and conveyance of non-verbal communication, but the convenience of video sessions can make them very worthwhile. Whether you want a combination of in-person and Telehealth, in-person only, or only Telehealth, I may be able to accommodate you. Please note that when you utilize insurance, medical necessity and a mental health diagnosis must be established to bill insurance. I do offer private pay services for people who do not have or want to use insurance.

Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I provide online therapy for adults and older adolescents across Tennessee, and through PSYPACT I can also offer virtual services in most participating states. I work with clients facing anxiety, low mood, grief, trauma, stress, and major life transitions, as well as long-standing patterns that feel hard to change. My approach is integrative and evidence based and blends practical tools with deeper work around meaning, patterns, and life direction. My goal is for therapy to feel grounded, personal, and focused on real progress.

Lisa Cleary
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in their thoughts, or disconnected from themselves and the people they care about. You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside, while inside you feel anxious, exhausted, or unsure of what you actually need.
I help adults work through anxiety, trauma, and relationship stress in a way that goes deeper than just coping skills. Together, we’ll slow things down, understand the patterns that are keeping you stuck, and build a stronger sense of clarity and self-trust. I often integrate approaches like CBT, EMDR, Accelerated Resolution Therapy, and parts work (IFS) to help you not just manage symptoms, but truly heal.
Clients often tell me they feel more confident in setting healthy boundaries, have a stronger sense of self-worth, and are better able to navigate difficult emotions without shutting down or becoming overwhelmed.
If you're ready for therapy that feels both supportive and meaningful, I’d be honored to work with you.

Dr. Olivia Blandford
Psychologist, Ph.D.
The COVID crisis struck near the end of my formal training, which afforded me the opportunity to extensively train in the delivery of quality therapy using virtual technologies.

Whether you are down the street or hundreds of miles away, trust that you will feel the same warmth, connection, and attention from me over video as you would face-to-face.

Dr Todd Giardina
Psychologist, PhD, Counseling Psychology
COVID showed us that telepsychology is feasible and effective! However, I do not accept new patients (especially in other counties or states) if the clinical need exceeds my comfort level (e.g., suicidal ideation, severe depression, etc).

Ashley Omar
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, CPCS
Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck in patterns that keep repeating—either within yourself or in your relationship? You may notice emotions escalating quickly, conversations turning into arguments, or feeling unheard or disconnected. Many individuals and couples come to therapy emotionally exhausted, wanting more calm, clarity, and healthier ways to relate but unsure how to break the cycle.
I provide trauma-informed therapy for adults and couples struggling with anxiety, emotional reactivity, and relationship conflict. With over 16 years of experience in the mental health field, I help clients understand what drives these patterns, regulate emotions, and build practical communication and coping skills for lasting change.
When stress, past experiences, or repeated conflict take over, it can feel discouraging and isolating. Therapy offers a supportive, structured space to slow things down and create healthier ways of relating—to yourself and to others. You deserve support that feels safe, effective, and respectful.
