Schizophrenia
Dr. Brian Sharpless
Psychologist, Ph.D., Clinical Psychology; M.A., Philosophy
Schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders can have profound effects on peoples' lives. However, therapy can be a very helpful addition to medication and other treatments. I have experience treating psychotic disorders using Psychodynamically-Oriented Supportive Therapy (POST) and other approaches. I have also published professional works on both hallucinations and delusions. Please note that I only do individual therapy (i.e., not couple's or family therapy).

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.
