About
As a therapist who has participated in therapy myself, I know how important it is to find a provider you connect with and feel truly seen by. I specialize in seeing the person in the room as a fully unique human being and in working with them to untangle the challenges they’re facing so they can grow into their fullest potential.
As a licensed master social worker (LMSW) with 4 years of experience, I've worked in a variety of settings where I’ve helped people navigate a range of issues including trauma, anxiety, relational conflict, and depression. From an intensive outpatient program to a major medical hospital, I’ve sat with people on some of the worst days of their lives, accompanying them through immense grief and loss, chronic stress, vicarious trauma, and major life transitions. I work with preteens to older adults using a flexible, integrative approach that weaves together evidence-based practices with each client’s individual needs and preferences.
I earned my master’s in social work from the University of Tennessee. I use tools like acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, but above all my priority is to show up as just another human in the room, navigating this hard, messy, beautiful life alongside my clients.
In our work together, I will sit with you in your pain, your confusion, your anger, or whatever you’re bringing into the space, and help you be with it, make sense of it, and ultimately, transform it. Therapy can be hard. Life is hard. And yet here you are, because you know there’s something better waiting for you. Let’s find out what it is.

I feel I will be able to help a variety of individuals achieve their goals through therapy because of the experience I bring through years of work and personal life experiences I have gone through on my own or with my family.
Hello, I am Robert Kirby, a clinical social worker. I've worked as a clinician in the mental health field since 2001 and became a licensed clinician in 2003. Over the years, I've worked as a clinical social worker (therapist) in medical care practices, in in-patient programs for drug rehab and psychiatric care, and as a therapist for elderly clients in nursing homes, as well as with families whose loved ones are in hospice care. I believe everyone has the ability to achieve their goals with the right help and the willingness to work at it. Taking that first step toward change is the hardest step to make.
When choosing a therapist, think about what you're looking for. I challenge you to think in new ways, like asking questions about your questions or playing devil's advocate. If you're up for a challenge, I'll support your work toward your goals. Each client connects differently, so I use varied techniques in session and homework to help therapy succeed.
Working with me will bring you the success you want, as long as you're doing the work needed too. No success is achieved without hard work. I look forward to being your guiding hand as you move through the process of your therapeutic work.

I'm Burt, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Supervisor Candidate, and Registered Play Therapist Candidate. I specialize in working with children, teens, and families with a passion for play therapy, neurodivergence-affirming care, ADHD, trauma, anxiety, grief, and helping families strengthen relationships. I use play, creativity, connection, and evidence-informed therapeutic approaches to help clients feel safe enough to explore what's underneath the surface. I'm also a mom and a business owner, and I understand that life can be beautifully messy. The heart of my work is connection with people and professional relationships.
I want therapy to be practical and compassionate—tailored to people in front of me. Not diagnosis or checklist. I care about creating a space where children feel understood, parents feel supported and families understand one another. I specialize in Trauma-Focused CBT, Cognitive Behavioral Play Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Child Centered Therapy.
Resilience doesn't mean nothing hard happens. It means developing tools and support to move through hard things without doing it alone. Whether you're a parent, teenager carrying more, family navigating transition, or child whose behavior communicates what they can't say, there is a place. You don't need it. Just be willing to start. I'm honored to meet you.

As a queer, neurodivergent person living in the South, I understand firsthand what it means to navigate a world that wasn't built with you in mind.
Hi, I'm Jaimee, a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW-CP) working in behavioral health since 2019. I work with a range of clients, including those facing anxiety, depression, and everyday life struggles. I also work especially well with queer and neurodivergent clients — as someone who is both, I understand how hard it can be to navigate a world not built for you, and to have real struggles dismissed as laziness. My goal is to create an authentic space where you can be yourself without judgment, whether you're exploring your identity, working through anxiety or depression, or learning to navigate this world.
To create an authentic space, I show up authentically too — laid back, down to earth, and not pretending to have all the answers. I listen with curiosity, not judgment, and offer insight and education along the way. Ultimately, this is your journey — we focus on the goals the client wants to work on.
I look forward to getting to know you as a person and supporting you through it. I believe true empathy sometimes means not fixing anything — just sitting with you in the dark, trapped feeling, when nothing else feels like it can help. That's something I can do. Taking the first step can be hard, but you don't have to do it alone.

I earned my master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling from Regent University. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and strengths-based approaches to tailor treatment to your needs, build coping skills, deepen insight, and support lasting wellness.
I believe healing grows through trust, clarity, and connection. My goal is to help you move forward with confidence and purpose. You can expect a supportive space to explore challenges and strengthen your resilience. If you're ready, I would be honored to walk with you toward growth.

I view clients as experts of their own lives and work collaboratively toward their goals. I specialize in trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming, and neurodiversity-affirming care, prioritizing safety, authenticity, and trust.
It takes strength to seek support, and I respect that deeply. You do not have to navigate life's challenges alone, and when ready, I welcome the opportunity to begin that work together.

I believe that everyone has the ability to effect positive change in their life. Our circumstances and experiences can erode our confidence in that ability, but it remains within us, and my goal is to help my clients find that power in themselves again.

My go-to approach for helping people in online therapy is meeting them where they are. Sometimes, you can't make it into the office or are more comfortable in your home. Therapy is a commitment, but using telehealth can make it more accessible. which is awesome.
I teach the same tools in online therapy as I do in in-person therapy. We focus on what your goal is and break down steps so that you achieve it. Tools that are often helpful are mindfulness activities, coping skills, acceptance strategies, and emotional regulation skills.
I know a client is making meaningful progress when they are feeling confident in their progress, a good sign of this is when we are about too look at their goal and are able to see the steps taken to achieving it.
It is rewarding for clients to see the efforts they are making in therapy show up in their lives. One of the best ways to help this happen is for clients to practice the skills we discuss in sessions and apply them in everyday situations.
The best thing you can do to prepare for your first session is to think about why you are choosing to start therapy and what you hope to achieve through it. Knowing what you are working toward helps you know when you are achieving it.
With Thriveworks, Online therapy is an effective alternative to in-person therapy services in which a client can speak to a Thriveworks therapist remotely via online video conferencing. Online sessions are just as effective as in-person treatment, but they can also provide added benefits like reduced travel time, saving money on transportation or childcare, and increased access to care.
Online therapy works much like traditional in-person therapy but takes place through secure video conferencing. Clients can attend Online therapy from any safe place they choose that has access to the internet, whether that be their home or another easily accessible place. Like in-person treatment, a therapist will work with their client to address their concerns, create goals, and establish an effective treatment plan.
There is no best option for online therapy—instead, it’s best to focus on finding a provider that meets your specific needs and with whom you can form a professional connection with.
Yes, online therapy is just as effetive for many clients as in-person sessions.
Online therapy can last for a few months to years depending on the goals and symptoms of the client. The treatment process will be unique to each client and lend itself to their specific concerns, which means that the time it takes to treat them will always be different. Timing is also up to the client themselves; they are free to stop therapy whenever they please, especially if they feel they have reached their goals and addressed their concerns.
At Thriveworks, we accept most major insurance plans, allowing many clients to pay as little as $0–$50 per session with their co-pay. We also offer self-pay options for those out-of-network or without insurance.
