Amber Dillehay

I am an LCSW in Tennessee and provide telehealth therapy for adults across the state. I specialize in working with adults experiencing depression, anxiety, grief, life transitions, women's issues, and the unique challenges faced by Veterans. My journey to becoming a provider started in hospital social work. where I worked with fragile patient's navigating serious health concerns and complex emotional challenges. Today, I have privilege of helping Veteran's with distinct life transitions.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to face life's challenges alone. Whether you're navigating a major life transition or simply feeling overwhelmed, I'm here to provide a safe space where you can be yourself without fear of judgement.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, strengthen motivation, and build healthy coping strategies. I believe therapy is most effective when it feels like a partnership. Using CBT and MI, I'll support you in identifying your strengths and clarifying your goals to create meaningful, sustainable change. My role is to encourage and empower you to build the life you want to be.

Your first session is an opportunity for us to get to know one another and begin building a trusting therapeutic relationship. I'll take time to learn about your unique story and experiences. By the close of the session, we'll have a better understanding of what you would like to accomplish and how we can move toward your goals.
