Tuesdae Lawrence, LMFT — Therapist in Tennessee

Hi there, I'm Tuesdae!

I work with individuals, couples, families, and adolescents. I specialize in anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, anger management, grief, adjustment issues, self-esteem, and relationship challenges. Using a variety of evidence-based approaches, I help clients move beyond their problems and start living the life they desire.

My focus

I work well with teens, adults, and couples dealing with communication, attachment, boundaries, and trust issues. Symptoms often show up as anxiety, anger, depression, and stress.

My approach

My approach varies based on your needs. I use child-centered play, cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, emotionally focused, and acceptance and commitment interventions. These modalities help us build a relationship in a safe space as you share your experiences and we develop skills that lead to healing.

My communication style

My communication style is assertive, calm, compassionate, direct, and personable. I want my clients to feel safe, seen, heard, and validated as they confront the life issues that bring them to therapy and we work together towards healing and becoming the best version of themself, so they can live the life they desire.

My journey to mental healthcare

After serving in the military, I continued doing what I love—serving and helping others—by entering the field of therapy. I have a passion for helping people find the courage within to become their best self and live their best life rather than survive. I invite clients into a safe space to confront painful issues that keep them stuck.

My goals for you

Goal setting is a collaborative effort. We work together to define what you hope to accomplish in therapy. This starts by building rapport and creating a safe, empathic, nonjudgmental space that allows you to share your experiences and work towards healing and growth.

Our first session

During the first session, we'll spend time learning about each other and sharing expectations for therapy. We'll discuss the problem that brings you here, how you're feeling currently, any changes since booking, and solutions you've found helpful. This builds connection and trust needed to find a way forward.
