Dialectical Behavior (DBT) Therapists in Memphis, TN

Virtual only! I live in TX. Clients who are struggling but wanting to not only heal, but also grow have the potential for being extremely powerful people. We have all gone through difficult times, experiencing anxiety, fear, depression, and hopelessness. However, if we have healed, we look back and see those times as hard, but some of the most powerful in our lives. Hearts can become strong, marriages can be healed and become euphoric, and our families can become strong, powerful, and beautiful. If you have a Christian background, I can help you become stronger in your faith. Executive Coaching available.

Welcome! and congratulations on taking the first step toward your healing journey. As your psychotherapist, I will employ a collaborative approach to therapy that is grounded in authenticity, directness, and compassion and work intently at understanding your specific goals and needs. In a safe and supportive space, I approach all difficulties systemically and work to shift both individuals and thought patterns to provide comprehensive, long-lasting results. Trained in an integrative model, I understand that one size does not fit all and can tailor therapeutic treatment to fit each client’s unique strengths and challenges.

I am dedicated to supporting individuals in their journey towards healing and well-being. l strive to provide a compassionate and safe space for individuals to explore their experiences and work towards healing. Drawing upon evidence-based therapeutic approaches, I tailor my counseling sessions to meet the unique needs of each client. I believe in the power of a collaborative therapeutic relationship, where individuals feel empowered and supported as they navigate their healing process. I am trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches, including EMDR, TF-CBT, DBT, IFS, IFT, Motivational Interviewing, and Person-Centered Therapy.

My hope is to create a relationship between the therapist and the individual that fosters positive and lasting change. To that end, I work patiently to ensure a sense of trust and safety. In addition, I feel I work well with individuals who go to therapy to be challenged, to be "unstuck." In these cases, I can be supportive while also being firm and direct. My approach is sensitive to the individual's life circumstance, their personality, and their comfort level with the therapeutic process.

I view counseling as a vital practice that involves connection, commitment, and hope for change. I’m able to recognize the courage it takes for anyone to ask for help, and I want to recognize the strength it takes to chose to ask for what you need. I focus on approaching each therapeutic relationship with understanding to begin building trust and open communication. My desire is to be able to provide a safe place for anyone to feel heard and work together to allow for growth.

I strive to maintain a warm and safe environment for my clients, helping them feel connected and validated. Starting therapy can seem overwhelming, but I am here to support you throughout this process. We will work to determine what your goals are and how you can get there. I work well with people wanting to heal their past traumas that continue to impact their daily life. I also utilize my own Christian faith to counsel clients that are interested in exploring their own relationship with God and processing religious trauma in a safe and nonjudgmental way.

Sometimes life just gets messy. I enjoy supporting both minors and adults in finding self compassion and growth while experiencing the uncomfortable. In sessions together, we can learn to do this by navigating trauma responses, depression, anxiety, life transitions, suicidal thoughts, relationships, body-image challanges, disordered eating, behavioral issues, and stress. Through both doing my own work and spending time with clients, I wholeheartedly feel we can find so much healing by getting curious about our emotions and greeting whatever arises with kindness, respect, and a bit of humor

Do you feel detached from your goals or feel like you’ve lost sight of what’s important in your life? Do you feel like you’re struggling to love yourself or separate yourself from narratives of what your life should look like? Maybe it’s time to take a step towards finding your most authentic self? Looks like you’ve come to the right place. Taking this first step can be scary, but I believe taking the leap can help you grow in ways never before realized.

Welcome! Do you feel like anxiety consumes all your energy? Do you get nervous and self-conscious when talking to other people? Does life feel chaotic and unmanageable? These are just a few of the many issues I help my clients work through. Anxiety, depression, low-self esteem, and life stress can definitely leave you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, but you don’t have to go through it alone! I am a Counselor and Art Therapist with experience treating teens and adults for various anxiety and depressive disorders. I am also passionate about assisting clients improve their self-esteem and relationships with others.

I practice counseling with the perspective that humans develop behaviors to serve some sort of purpose. As a counselor, I am here to offer guidance and support for when those behaviors are no longer necessary or are no longer serving the purpose that was intended. I strive to assist clients in developing a balance in how they both experience and express emotions, with the belief that there is no "bad" emotion. My goal is to work with clients in discovering a state of awareness of the uncertainty in life rather than a fear of it.

Today you took the first step in seeking help and that is a brave thing. I am honored to be one of the people you are thinking about. I believe greatly in the whole body and mind approach as well as the whole system approach. Healing is found in many arenas and therapy is a dress rehearsal for life. There a million reasons we need to get support through therapy! Relationship conflict or the end of a relationship, stress from work, anxieties of parenting, adjusting to big life changes like changing jobs or graduating college. Having a place that its all about you can be invaluable.

Over the past 3 years, I have dedicated myself to those dealing with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, and trauma. With almost 2 decades of personal recovery, I understand how the eating disorder can affect your ability to move forward in life, especially when there are coinciding disorders. The realization that you may need help takes a certain amount of courage and I’m here to walk along side you on that journey to recovery so you can fulfill your dreams. It will be hard, uncomfortable, and sometimes won’t seem worth it, but I assure you, there is more to life and you have the capability to heal.

Searching for someone to help when we are struggling can be difficult and uncomfortable. I want to make that process a little bit easier by employing a non-judgmental approach to meet someone where they are. My name is Matt Stamps, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Mental Health Service Provider. I believe in an empathic approach to therapy in which I work with my clients as partners to heal and recover from mental health issues. I utilize evidence-based approaches to assist clients in developing coping skills and new perspectives to improve day-to-day life.

Together, we can explore the issues you face to better understand them and work through to resolution in a non-judgmental manner. I am excited to join you along your journey of self-healing and discovery.

There are challenges we must overcome in day-to-day life. It can be overwhelming and difficult to navigate these circumstances. My desire as a therapist is to provide a safe, supportive environment where clients can come, be heard, and collaborate to process those challenges. Whether your life has been impacted by trauma, mental illness, transitions, or stressful situations we can work together to help you live a focused, purposeful, and fulfilling life.

My therapeutic style includes using a collaborative and customized approach that targets areas of your life you are seeking to improve. We focus on skill building, regulating emotions, managing interpersonal conflict, and processing feelings and underlying needs in order to help increase fulfillment and improve overall functioning. I specifically use Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Supportive therapy, and Solution-focused strategies in my therapeutic approach.

Life can be tiring and exhausting. Sometimes it can feel like we're underwater and there's no relief in sight. When we're having strong thoughts we can't seem to shake, it's truly just peace we're looking for and I hope to help you find that.

Brené Brown once said, "Let go of who you think you're supposed to be. Embrace who you are." I would love to walk with you on this journey of embracing who you are as an individual, and who you want to become. Healing is never easy, but you will never have to do it alone. I have a huge passion for seeing people heal and grow into the person they didn’t feel they could become. I strive to create a safe space for anyone who takes the courageous step to share their story with me, as I know this is not an easy ask from anyone.

My diverse background has equipped me with the skills to work with individuals struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, disordered eating, life transitions, and multi-cultural/inter-generational issues. With a genuine passion for supporting healing and personal growth, I offer a safe and compassionate space where you can share your story without fear of judgment.
