Mary Jo Harmon

Therapist

Virtual • Memphis, TN


I’m a therapist based in Memphis who works with high-achieving women navigating anxiety, burnout, identity transitions, and complex relationship dynamics. Many of my clients are successful on the outside and exhausted on the inside. They are often the responsible one, the strong one, the reliable one — and quietly overwhelmed.

My work is grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS), an evidence-based model that helps clients understand and heal the different “parts” of themselves — the driven part, the critical part, the anxious part, the part that feels unseen. I am Level 1 trained in IFS and integrate attachment-informed and trauma-responsive care into my practice.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right addiction counselor for you

Headway makes it easier to find support for overcoming addiction — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Memphis, TN

Searching for addiction therapists in Memphis starts with finding someone whose experience matches the type of support you want. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, sexual behavior concerns, gambling, or other behavioral patterns. Some therapists use motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use, or harm reduction-informed approaches. If medication may be part of your care, you may also want a psychiatrist or other prescriber on your care team.

Memphis has a range of addiction therapists, but the right fit depends on more than specialty. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near your neighborhood or virtual appointments that widen your options across Tennessee. Look for therapists who are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and clearly describe their approach to addiction recovery. Reading therapist bios can help you see whether they use a direct, nonjudgmental style and have experience with the concerns you want to address.

Addiction therapy in Memphis can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway helps you find addiction therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, show available appointment times, and offer profile details that make comparing fit easier. You can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you or someone you know is experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms — especially from alcohol or benzodiazepines — talk to a medical provider or seek emergency care before starting outpatient therapy. If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction or substance use and is in a crisis, immediately reach out to:

* 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — call or text 988 * SAMHSA National Helpline — 1-800-662-HELP (4357), free, confidential, 24/7 * Crisis Text Line — text HOME to 741741

If you're already taking psychiatric medication and considering switching providers, talk to your current prescriber before changing or stopping any medication — most psychiatric medications shouldn't be stopped abruptly. Anyone experiencing thoughts of self-harm or in acute crisis should call 988 or go to the nearest emergency department rather than wait for an outpatient appointment.
