Karen Hartfield, MA, LMHC, Fearless Heart Counseling
Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Sandplay Therapist with STA
Sandplay therapy can actually be a very beneficial supplement to working with trauma. Processing trauma in a safe, protected place allows a person to feel the pain of their feelings in a deep way so that these feelings can then be released. Having a new relationship with past traumatic events is one of the main goals of working with trauma.

Clear Path Counseling and Wellness Center
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA. LPC
Brad provides trauma-informed counseling for anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, family issues, and a wide range of related emotional and psychological concerns. These difficulties can significantly impact daily functioning, relationships, self-esteem, work performance, and overall quality of life, often leaving individuals feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves and others.
Brad takes a holistic and trauma-focused approach to therapy, integrating evidence-based trauma treatment with a personalized, client-centered framework. Rather than focusing only on symptom management, therapy explores underlying emotional patterns, life experiences, and trauma histories that may be contributing to current distress.
As an experienced trauma therapist and EMDR therapist, Brad integrates EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), trauma-informed counseling, emotional regulation strategies, and holistic therapeutic approaches to support deep and lasting change. Treatment focuses on processing past experiences, reducing emotional reactivity, and helping clients develop healthier, more adaptive ways of thinking, feeling, and relating.
Clients often come to therapy feeling weighed down by anxiety, depression, or unresolved trauma. Brad’s approach helps clients understand how past experiences may still be influencing present-day thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and works toward resolving these patterns in a structured and supportive way.
Therapy is collaborative and individualized, designed to help clients regain a sense of control, clarity, and emotional stability. The goal is to support meaningful, sustainable change that improves relationships, strengthens resilience, and enhances overall well-being.
Brad also specializes in religious trauma counseling for individuals who have experienced harm in religious or church settings. This may include spiritual abuse, coercion, guilt-based teachings, or other distressing experiences related to organized religion. Therapy provides a safe and non-judgmental space to process these experiences and rebuild a sense of identity, meaning, and emotional safety.
Healing is possible. With the right support, clients can move beyond the impact of trauma and create a more balanced, empowered, and fulfilling life.

East Chattanooga covers the historically Black neighborhoods on Chattanooga's east side, communities with strong church and civic traditions that have carried decades of disinvestment and, more recently, renewal efforts. Mental health needs are shaped by economic stress, community violence exposure in some areas, and a shortage of nearby providers — with faith communities often the first line of support. Chattanooga's citywide providers and community health organizations serve the area.
