Sometimes your mind understands what’s happened, but your body still holds the impact. I’m trained in EMDR and Brainspotting, approaches that help gently process those deeper layers. My work integrates mindfulness and somatic awareness to support nervous system regulation, so change doesn’t just feel intellectual, it feels real, grounded, and lasting.

Therapist

Virtual • Tennessee


I’m Amanda, and I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves a place where they can show up exactly as they are. I bring warmth, authenticity, and even a bit of humor into the room when it feels right. I want you to feel genuinely seen—not judged—and supported in whatever you’re working through.

I’ve been in the counseling field for over 15 years and hold a PhD in Counselor Education from the University of Tennessee. My experience ranges from private practice and telehealth to correctional mental health, hospitals, and leadership roles in community programs. A. Simms Resume copy

I work with adults experiencing mood challenges, anxiety, identity concerns, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ experiences, as well as individuals who are justice-involved or adjusting to major life changes. My approach integrates CBT, ACT, and Reality Therapy, giving us room to explore both deeper patterns and practical skills.

Clients describe me as encouraging, steady, and real—someone who helps them feel grounded and capable while taking meaningful steps toward a more balanced and authentic life.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Memphis

Finding the right therapist in Memphis starts with getting clear on what kind of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, ADHD, or grief, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your specific concerns can make a meaningful difference. Common license types in Tennessee include LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor), LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker), and psychologists — each trained to provide talk therapy. If you need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner may be the right fit.

With hundreds of providers practicing across Memphis and surrounding areas like Germantown, Bartlett, and Collierville, narrowing your options can feel like a lot. Consider what matters most to you — whether that's a provider's therapeutic approach, the option for virtual or in-person sessions, or availability that fits your schedule. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their style and decide if they're a good match.

Therapy in Memphis can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs before you book — and many patients pay as little as $0 per session. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
