ADHD impacts concentration, impulse control, and executive function differently for everyone. In Cookeville, Headway's network of 461 providers offers comprehensive support through psychoeducation, habit tracking, and strengths-based approaches to help you manage symptoms effectively.
One thing I want my clients to know is that I have a deep passion for helping individuals who feel like they’ve run out of options with psychiatric medications. If you’ve experienced past medication failures, please know you aren’t a lost cause. Together, we will partner to find a personalized, thoughtful combination of treatments that genuinely works for your unique life
I am dedicated to providing an inviting and purposeful service for each client. I have been practicing therapy for 5 years. I have a background in using CBT, DBT techniques, solution focused practices.
I’m Elaina, a bicultural therapist whose own lived experiences shape how I sit with others. Many of my clients carry complex or childhood trauma layered with ADHD, autism, anxiety, or depression. They’re often the deep feelers and deep thinkers—the ones who’ve been told they’re “too much.”
I work with individuals and couples navigating relationship struggles, grief, affairs, identity shifts, and life transitions. I also enjoy working with military families, veterans, LGBTQ+ folks, and people from diverse cultural backgrounds who know that healing doesn’t look the same for everyone. My style is warm and human, with steady empathy and a willingness to challenge when it supports growth.
As a Black, queer, neurodivergent clinician, I know I have a unique perspective when it comes to mental health and wellbeing. If you are looking for someone different, someone who will really listen to your concerns, and help you achieve your goals, don't look further. I am an integrative psychiatric provider, and I believe that mental health is a lot more than medications, but medications can also help! I am inclusive and enjoy working with a diverse group of individuals that struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, autism, and ADHD. I also enjoy working with "higher functioning" folx and professionals. *I see clients ages 16 -65 years old.*
I work best with driven people experiencing a big change. Perhaps, despite your best efforts, things aren’t working out as you’d hoped. Or perhaps you’ve gotten all you wanted and it doesn’t satisfy. I work often with D1 athletes & pros (as well as their family members). I love supporting the romantic partners of people in the public eye. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.
I am Jared S. Fuson, and I am a licensed therapist. I have 12 years of experience helping individuals and couples overcome life's challenges and improve their mental well-being. I specialize in anxiety disorders, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. I have also worked with first responders, veterans, and correctional workers. I have training in CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Clinical Trauma Counseling. I am committed to helping clients reach the best version of themselves!
Supporting Neurodiverse Minds with Compassion, Expertise, and Evidence-Based Care
I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of neurodiverse teens, young adults, and adults. My practice is dedicated to helping individuals better understand themselves and thrive in a world that often isn’t designed for how they think, feel, or process information.
Whether you or your loved one is navigating Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, or co-occurring challenges such as anxiety, mood, or behavioral disorders, I provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment designed to meet your unique needs.
My goal is to create a space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with tools that work in their real lives. If you're seeking compassionate, research-driven support from a clinician who understands neurodiversity—not just clinically, but humanly—I invite you to book a session.
Let’s work together to uncover your strengths and build the skills for a more confident, connected, and fulfilling life.
I am an LCSW with a Master's of Social Work degree and have been in field over 12 years.
As a therapist I have a genuine interest in humans and human behavior. I have been in the Mental Health Field since 2006. I have had multiple experiences that has helped me to be aware of problems that individuals may face today. I use CBT, SFT, and other Modalities using a humanistic approach to understand and guide you. I accept you as you are and will guide you with all training and experiences as the backdrop. I believe that life is a journey with many surprises.
I’m a dual board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner with experience in both private practice and community mental health settings. My background allows me to work with a wide range of individuals, from those navigating everyday stress and anxiety to those managing more complex mental health conditions.
I earned my Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP), and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) degrees from Middle Tennessee State University, Maryville University, and Murray State University. My training across both primary care and psychiatry allows me to take a comprehensive, whole-person approach to care.
