I know that reaching out for help often feels like the hardest part. My goal is to make our first steps together feel safe, steady, and deeply human. I don’t just see a "client"—I see a person with a unique story, incredible resilience, and a longing to feel like themselves again. In our space, there is no judgment, only room for you to breathe and be heard.

I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience walking alongside people through some of life's hardest moments. Whatever brought you here: grief that's hard to put into words, depression, anxiety, the weight of a trauma you've been carrying, or the fear and uncertainty that come with a serious illness or a major life change, you don't have to face it alone.

Much of my career has been spent in palliative care, hospice, and grief and bereavement support. I work with adults navigating grief and loss, depression, anxiety, trauma, serious illness, and life transitions. I'd be honored to support you through yours.

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


My name is Dr. Regina Clark, DSW, LCSW, and I work with children, teens, and adults who have experienced trauma and are ready to begin their healing journey. I specialize in trauma-informed care, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, and play therapy for young children.

In our sessions, you will find a safe, supportive space where you are seen, heard, valued, and never rushed. I believe every person’s story deserves compassion, understanding, and care. My practice is rooted in authenticity, empathy, and a genuine commitment to helping clients navigate life’s challenges while building resilience and emotional wellness.

I do this work because healing can be difficult, but you are not meant to walk through it alone. I believe growth, restoration, and healing are possible, and I am honored to support individuals and families as they move toward hope, balance, and lasting change.
