“I absolutely loved Lela. She was direct, but compassionate. She was down-to-earth and easy to talk to. She always offered the truth in a palatable manner. I am gutted that I can no longer see her due to insurance issues.”

Getting to know Lela Gregory
Hello, I'm Lela.
Have you been feeling all out of sorts lately? Has it been exhausting trying to figure out what's wrong? Is your relationship different, but you just can't put your finger on it?
Together, we can explore what factors might be contributing to these unanswered questions and more.
Whether you're dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, or just plain "life" itself, I can assist you in finding solutions and coping skills to help manage many areas of concern.
While the thought of therapy can sometimes seem scary, you usually find it to be the right choice.
I am licensed in Tennessee with 10 years of professional work experience and hold a Master's in Mental Health Counseling from Walden University. I have experience helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialogue and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
What should a new client know about working with you?
Your first session will likely involve me asking you a lot of questions about you, how you cope, and your symptoms (it's basically an interview). We may also chat about your goals for therapy, expectations, and more.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Lela has made me super comfortable from the very beginning. She's allowed me to share without judgment, but still tells me what I need to hear (not necessarily what I want).
