Emily Hurlin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LISW, LCSW
Most couples who reach out to me have already tried talking it through, sometimes for years, and they're worn out from having the same fight in slightly different words. I work differently. Drawing on PACT, Somatic Experiencing, and EMDR, I help partners notice what's happening in their bodies and nervous systems when things go sideways, so change sticks where insight alone hasn't. I work with betrayal, gridlocked conflict, intimacy struggles, blended families, and couples preparing for marriage. If you're ready for something more than communication tips, I'd be glad to hear from you.

No one's life came with an instruction manual! Sooner or later we all encounter emotional problems, or engage in addictive behaviors, & experience relational problems too. I have specific experience and training in helping people navigate these kinds of issues. My clients typically experience progressive freedom and develop effective ways of coping with these issues. See the checklist below to learn about the specific struggles I can be of service to help with. I am a licensed therapist in Knoxville, Tennessee. I help people improve their relationships and overcome addictions or emotional problems. I accept most insurances & self-pay. I offer counseling in the office or through an online video platform. You can schedule an appointment to see me online or at my Knoxville office at the client portal link on my website!

Margie Melaniphy
Psychologist, PsyD
I have been in private practice as a licensed clinical psychologist since 2013. I earned my PsyD in Clinical Psychology and a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from the Illinois School of Professional Psychology at National Louis University. Before that, I completed my undergraduate degree in journalism at Northwestern University. I worked in magazine publishing for 10 years before returning to graduate school to study psychology. During that part of my career, I gained a wide range of professional experiences, including hiring and firing staff, managing a departmental budget, frequent business travel (and feeling its effects on my personal life), being laid off, and having to lay off others. I can absolutely relate to people who struggle to find meaning in their professional and personal lives.
After the events of 9/11 and some difficult experiences that followed, I decided to go back to school because I wanted to do something that felt more personally meaningful. I love my work as a clinical psychologist. Over the years, I have developed a particular interest in working with people with anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, OCD, perfectionism anxiety, panic disorder, and trauma. This is a very anxious world we all live in, but anxiety and avoidance don’t have to dictate the choices you make in your life!

Dr. Meghan Miller
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Many of my clients are high-achieving women, working moms, and athletes who look successful on the outside but privately feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. Through online therapy, I provide a supportive space to manage anxiety, process stress, and overcome burnout. My approach is both compassionate and practical - I help you untangle perfectionism, strengthen confidence, and create balance so you can thrive in leadership, parenting, and performance. Juggling work, parenting, or athletic pressure can be exhausting - you don’t have to keep doing it all alone. Send me a message, and we’ll set up a free 15-minute consultation to explore how therapy can help you feel more grounded and fulfilled day to day.
