Allan Rowe, LCSW — Therapist in Tennessee

Hi there, I'm Allan!

I hope you're doing well, but I understand you may not be. I hope we can work together to get you feeling your best. I work with adults 18 and older, but especially enjoy working with older adults and their caregivers. I have extensive knowledge of dementia and caregiver stress. Send me a message and let's get started today.

My focus

I enjoy helping adults learn about their own emotions and how to manage them, along with making changes in their lives. I especially enjoy helping people navigate the difficult world of dementia and elder care.

My approach

I use various approaches, including CBT, DBT, and education, and rely heavily on mindfulness to improve stress. I always take a client-centered approach to help you achieve your best possible outcomes.

My communication style

I generally use a laid-back communication style while still being thorough. I take pride in being able to communicate complex ideas into simple understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

It is a long, humorous story of me thinking about what I wanted to do with my life and being wrong every step of the way until I landed where I am now. I enjoy my career as a therapist and would love to share the full story with you.

My goals for you

We often set small, realistic goals that are clear-cut. We talk about strategies to reach those goals, ways to overcome barriers, and celebrate all progress.

Our first session

The initial intake is a lot of history gathering and goal setting. It allows me to get to know you and what we are working on. Earlier sessions are usually filled with educational discussions. This takes the burden off you to completely open up and fill the time. It allows you to ease into therapy at a comfortable pace.
