Dr. Megan Marks
Psychologist, PhD
You’ve checked the boxes, followed the plan, and built a life that should feel satisfying—but something still feels off. Whether you're questioning your current career, feeling burned out, or wondering if it’s too late to pivot, you’re not alone. I specialize in helping high-achieving professionals and emerging adults navigate career confusion, misalignment, and the pressure to have it all figured out.
At The Momentum Practice, career counseling isn’t just about résumés and job titles—it’s about reconnecting with yourself and redefining what success actually means to you. Career concerns often run deeper than needing a new job. You may feel stuck, lost in self-doubt, or like you're quietly living out someone else’s story—but change is possible. Together, we’ll explore your values, strengths, fears, and options so you can make choices that feel both purposeful and aligned with who you really are.
We’ll work through the mental spin and emotional weight that often come with career uncertainty, and focus on helping you feel more confident, clear-headed, and grounded in your next step. I support clients through college-to-career transitions, work-life burnout, and brave pivots into entrepreneurship. Career indecision can be exhausting, isolating, and full of internal pressure—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. With over 15 years of experience, I bring insight, humor, and concrete tools to help you build a career that reflects who you are—not just who you’ve been trying to be. If you’re ready to feel less stuck and more certain of your direction, let’s talk. Contact me for a free 15 minute consultation!

Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist, Nationally Registered Health Service Provider
I provide career counseling and executive coaching to those who are just starting out, considering a change in career paths, or want to reach their full potential and be content with their current path. I often braid traditional coaching with therapeutic techniques such as cognitive-behavioral and narrative therapy for powerful results. Career counseling is well-timed at many stages of life.

Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee — the state's flagship research university — and serves as the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains and Appalachian outdoor recreation culture, giving it a distinctive blend of college-town energy and Appalachian heritage that shapes its therapy community. The city's growing healthcare sector, anchored by UT Medical Center and Covenant Health, provides institutional mental health resources and supplies clinical training to the local community. Knoxville's working-class Appalachian communities carry distinct cultural attitudes toward help-seeking — including strong value on self-reliance and community support — that therapists must navigate with cultural sensitivity. The University of Tennessee's psychology programs, combined with the city's proximity to Appalachian communities experiencing opioid-related crisis, mean addiction recovery and co-occurring trauma are among the most active areas in Knoxville's local therapy landscape.
