As a therapist with over a decade of experience, I recognize that taking the first step toward seeking therapy can be difficult, which is why I want to help clients feel comfortable discussing some of life's most challenging topics. As I near the end of my education in Counseling Psychology, I have honed my experience in trauma-informed care. I have experience in working with individuals across the lifespan, but have focused my recent work with adults aged 18+ with extensive trauma and anxiety.

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.

Courtney Cagle

Courtney Cagle

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Kingston, TN


I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC-MHSP) with more than 15 years of experience in the behavioral health field. My career began in residential treatment in 2010, and I have since worked in residential, community-based, school-based, juvenile justice, and outpatient settings. Since 2018, I have provided counseling services to adolescents and their families, and since 2024, I have worked with adults facing a variety of mental health concerns.

I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, and families navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, behavioral concerns, and difficulties related to school, work, and family dynamics. I also have extensive experience supporting youth and families involved with Juvenile Justice and the Department of Children's Services.

My therapeutic approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), family therapy, and other interventions tailored to each client's unique needs and goals.

I strive to create a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe, heard, and supported. Whether you are a teen struggling with anxiety, a family facing communication challenges, or an adult navigating stress, trauma, depression, relationship concerns, or life transitions, I will work alongside you to identify goals, build on your strengths, and develop practical skills for lasting change.

My goal is to help clients gain insight, build resilience, and move forward with greater confidence and hope. I would be honored to support you on your journey toward healing and personal growth.
