Life Transitions
Dr. Rae Mazzei
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adolescents and adults navigate life transitions with greater confidence, resilience, and clarity. Major changes such as career shifts, relationship changes, marriage, divorce, parenthood, infertility, relocation, retirement, health concerns, and other significant life events can bring uncertainty, stress, and emotional challenges. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based strategies, I help clients adapt to change, manage anxiety and self-doubt, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their values and goals. My goal is to help clients successfully navigate life's transitions while building a meaningful and fulfilling future.

Christian Bumpous
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, LPC, CDWF
“We get better in connection” is one of the mantras I live by. And what better way to make that happen than in therapy? We all know what it’s like to feel unwell and in the struggle.

Life Transitions
Rebecca Dudley
Psychologist, PhD
I provide a warm, personable, focused, and judgment-free space to work through presenting problems and find effective solutions. Each client has different needs, so I will meet you where you are, metaphorically, to help you feel and function better. I have a large "tool kit" of cognitive and behavioral tools to pull from so that we can collaboratively determine an individualized approach to treatment based on what we determine works best for you. I frequently work with young adults struggling with life transitions, and treatment often focuses on exploring and restructuring the root cause of difficulty with change and building autonomy to learn to manage transitions more effectively.

Life Transitions
Bloom Within You Therapy
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Lauren Graham, LCSW
Life transitions can bring both opportunity and uncertainty. Changes such as becoming a parent, shifts in relationships, career changes, aging, changes in identity, or entering a new stage of life can affect your confidence, emotional wellbeing, relationships, and sexual sense of self. Even positive changes can leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who you are becoming.
In therapy, we will explore how these changes are affecting you emotionally, relationally, and personally. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and individualized, helping you adjust to change, strengthen your sense of self, clarify what you need, and move forward with greater confidence and intention.

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.
