I believe in the power of the healing relationship between therapist and client, where we strive to be self-aware, honest and real. My office provides a comfortable atmosphere where I am non-judgmental in my approach. My mission is to help improve my clients' lives by focusing on their strengths to create a healthy difference that is long lasting. There are times when a loss or life change brings many feelings, including the discomfort of anxiety and a feeling of low energy. If events in your life have caused you to question even your most basic decisions, if you are feeling sad, depressed, stressed, or think you may need help for yourself or your relationships, please call me right away. The sooner you get help, the sooner your healing can begin. The drama of everyday life sometimes overwhelms our coping skills and leaves us feeling broken and confused. When times get tough, it is hard to know who to trust and where to turn. The ability to find a safe place to reflect, to connect genuinely, to create meaning, to be tested, to give voice to pain, and get sturdy answers to sticky questions is not easily found. Too many times, this human drama makes us feel trapped, isolated and deprived and leaves us puzzled and afraid. My approach involves finding your true voice and strengthening personal power, identifying emotional triggers, challenging your inner critic, finding perspective, enhancing your emotional vocabulary, learning to take risks, fail safely and grow. My belief about couple relationships is that two people come together in friendship and love to gain a greater measure of happiness. All individuals in a relationship are responsible for creating the discord as well as the harmony in their relationship, and each person can grow as a result of loving one another. The focus of work is on the strengths of the family or couple, improving communication, and an invitation to each person to participate, address, and change what prevents the relationship from moving toward a more loving and healthy relationship. Couples will learn how to strengthen their marriage by learning to create safety, build trust, tell the deep truth, and intentionally reconnect. By doing so, they'll become more confident and skillful at dealing with those troubling moments that too often make intimacy impossible and destroy the very glue that holds people together.

Raising kids is one of the most important jobs in the world. Parenting can be a lot of fun and challenging at the same time. Kids are often faced with issues that are overwhelming, frustrating and at times even hopeless. Some of them do not respond in the most positive ways. Parents have difficulty understanding why their best efforts sometimes don’t stop their kids from making poor choices, being depressed or decreasing anxiety. Through counseling I attempt to assist parents with their child or adolescent in identifying issues, overcoming challenges, and bridging gaps between them and their child. Counseling can help children and teens develop problem-solving skills and also teach them the importance of seeking help. I can help children, teens and families cope with stress and a variety of emotional and behavioral issues. Many children and teens need help dealing with school stress, such as homework, test anxiety, bullying, or peer pressure. Others need assistance to discuss family related stress such as divorce, death or illness. With a little assistance “The Sky’s The Limit!” Kids of all ages enjoy the relaxed atmosphere of my office. I use a variety of techniques when working with children and adolescents to initially establish a trusting relationship. Some techniques I utilize are play therapy, art therapy, behavior modification, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), role-playing, modeling, feeling identification, choice therapy and anger management.

Are you ready to take that step that leads to better living? Has life let you down? Are you looking for a passion and meaning? If you are trying to figure out where to go next or trying to get over a broken relationship I may be the therapist for you. If you are or are parenting a pre-teen or teen struggling with all that comes with adolescence, I can help you. I strive to provide a compassionate, safe, non-judgmental setting to encourage sharing and growth. Flexible days and hours available. Whether you are on a traditional, non-traditional or way off the beaten path, I can hold hope for you and help you make positive changes.

I believe in the healing power of relationships. I value empathy, compassion and trust. My goal is to help you create healthy and life long change in your life. My office is a safe and non-judgmental space for this journey. Life can present us with difficult situations that challenge us in new ways and bring up unexpected emotions. If events in your life have left you feeling overwhelmed, please give me a call. Please know that help is available and healing is possible. I look forward to hearing from you. I have specialized training and experience in Substance Abuse, Addictions, Codependency, Sexual Trauma, Imago Relationship Therapy, Grief and End of Life issues. I see individuals, couples and families. I accept many types of insurance. Please call and I am happy to verify coverage for you.

My specialties include child and family counseling, addictions, men’s issues, women’s issues, and integrating faith into counseling when desired. I view my job as offering understanding and care that inspires hope through encouraging and equipping people to grow. Therapy within a supportive and relational environment allows for people to experience genuinely being known. I seek to offer clients a new experience of peace and joy in the midst of change and trials that are painful. I get to support and see people making long-term changes that enhance their life, allow them to receive healing, unconditional love, and impact the lives of those around them. I enjoy connecting with any individual and family, understanding, and deeply caring about others as I walk alongside them in their journey. I help to bring new hope to people by highlighting their strengths and potential, describing a vision of the best life they want, and helping them utilize tools to take steps towards their goals. I bring hope to my community by volunteering at my local church and caring for each person I encounter in whatever way I can.

Mindset: Inspiration for the process of therapy can be drawn from one of the best movie quotes of all time, “No! Try not! Do or Do Not, There is no try.” These are very powerful words telling people, especially to those in therapy that you must either willingly make your own necessary and sometimes critical changes in your life or you don’t. Therapy is about actively regaining control of your personal energy. Therapy is a collaborative approach to healing and well-being between a client and therapist. The therapist helps guide a person into making better life decisions, but the client must intuitively think of new ways of managing their life stressors that they are comfortable starting and maintaining. Clients not willing to make changes for themselves will continue to spin helplessly and hopelessly out of control. The mind is constantly changing; people in therapy must also learn to continually adjust and adapt to new situations while keeping a mindful-eye on their past. Education and Training: Dr. Hurley received his Master of Arts (MA) in General and Theoretical Psychology at Fairleigh Dickinson University (FDU) in Teaneck, New Jersey. He graduated with a Doctoral Degree (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology at Forest Institute of Professional Psychology (FIPP) in Springfield, Missouri. At FIPP Dr. Hurley specialized in Marriage and Family Counseling. Other areas of training include neuro-psychology, anger management, bio-feedback, and pre-marital counseling. During his doctoral program he worked in a children’s psychiatric hospital. His internship was in community mental health, and he participated in a national study on Schizophrenia. Dr. Hurley’s post-doc residency was in substance abuse and rehabilitation. After his post-doc residency he spent two years in private practice in Libertyville, IL. Dr. Hurley then became the medical director for a Chicago based firm doing home health care delivering mental health therapy to Chicago’s south-side geriatric African-American population who live in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. Dr. Hurley has taught undergraduate students at Robert Morris College in Aurora, IL and graduate students at the Chicago School of Professional Psychology. He finds teaching to be a change of pace and a way of leading a new generation of therapists into the Health Services Industry. His career path changed when he moved to Knoxville, TN. Dr. Hurley was the Clinical Director for Mental Health for Tennessee’s main intake prison facility. He worked with various criminals making sure that they received the help they needed and to minimize suicide attempts. Dr. Hurley’s stance on his education, training, and career is to always strive to learn more, to do more, and to be the best therapist possible. Therapeutic Stance: My approach to therapy with my clients is multi-faceted. There is no one therapy to fit all. I like to approach issues from a psycho-dynamic, family systems, CBT, Gestalt, existential, and medical stance. When dealing with mental health disorders you have to consider the mind as well as the body for the root of a problem. Therapy needs to be understandable by those who seek help and I have spent years refining my technique to help clients understand the issues they’re facing and the theories on how to resolve said issues. People feel more comfortable and understood if you can talk to them in the various places they are currently. I love to see individuals, couples, and groups in a calm, peaceful, and most importantly neutral environment. I love to make presentations to groups for psycho-educational purposes as well.

Welcome. My name is Jim Garrett. I'm a licensed clinical professional counselor and psychotherapist, and I provide counseling and psychotherapy services for individuals and couples. To make it easier for you to get started, I offer a free phone consultation. There are lots of very good reasons for people to seek the help of a counselor or therapist. Individual counseling and individual psychotherapy can often be very helpful for people feeling sad, worried, frustrated, angry, confused, stressed, or simply feeling down on themselves. Marriage counseling and couples counseling can often be very helpful for people experiencing difficulties in important relationships or simply feeling that the relationship is not meeting their needs. And these are just a few of the concerns that a therapist can help with. Maybe one of these issues is what brought you here, or maybe you're here out of concern for a family member or friend who could benefit from the help of a therapist. Or maybe your reason for being here is entirely different. Whatever it is, I can assure you that you are in good company. Lots of people call therapists every day for help with a wide range of concerns. If you'd like to give me a call, I'll be more than happy to talk with you.

I believe that we all have our own answers inside of us, and that sometimes we need a listening ear, or some additional support to figure out how we want our lives to be different and more satisfying. As an excellent listener, and one who is empathic and understanding, I have helped many clients achieve their own respective goals in life. I have been working in private practice for over 20 years, and have a lot of experience working with clients presenting with many different life problems. I see adults, teens, and children, in individual therapy, couples therapy, and family therapy. Some of my areas of expertise include depression, relationship issues, parenting issues, grief, adjustment difficulties, job stress, etc. I have a particular area of expertise working with incest survivors, and actually all adult survivors from troubled childhoods. I am EMDR trained, and also use cognitive behavioral therapy in my approach to clients, though I tend to be mostly psychodynamic. I welcome the opportunity to consult with any clients who may be interested in seeking counseling!

During the first twenty-five years of our lives, we go through vast growth and change. With each age and developmental stage, we are faced with unique stressors and challenges. Sometimes we master these challenges and changes, and sometimes we experience difficulty or obstacles and can’t figure out the best direction for us to take or how to navigate moving forward. When this happens, it’s a sign that we can benefit from and may need some help and support. Whether you’re having difficulty mastering social anxiety, figuring out friendships and relationships, handling all the pressures on your shoulders, navigating “adulting” or the teenage years, struggling with self esteem, liking yourself, or managing depression, anxiety, or uncomfortable feelings, therapy can help. Therapy is a place where you can take the time and have the space to focus on yourself when life becomes difficult. In the beginning of therapy, our first task will to be building a relationship. We will be new to each other, so it will take some time for you to trust, feel comfortable, and secure with me. When that happens, we will begin to form a kind of team so we can collaborate together to help you with what you’re struggling with. Most importantly, I want to create a comfortable, secure, and trusting space and environment for you. One goal of mine is to help you begin to feel that when we meet you are in a space absent of judgement and instead filled with acceptance, compassion, and support.. I’m a good listener, so I will certainly be listening while you share more about yourself. I always want the individuals I work with to feel supported enough to voice their concerns, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, and hopes. Our first session will include you sharing some details of your life, including what is happening in your life that led you to seek supportive therapy. I will also inquire as to what you hope to work on, what you value in life, what you would like to change, what you imagine your life may look like, and what you may feel once you are there. We will want to gather an idea and direction of what you strive to think, believe, feel, and experience, and what you want to be doing in your life once you meet your goals. We will work together to develop an understanding of the areas you are struggling with along with identifying your strengths. Then we will create a few initial goals we can work on together that will help you begin to feel better. I believe that it is necessary to work together to figure out these goals in order to form a clear picture of where you want to get to in order to begin seeing change within yourself and within your life. Determining together what you need and want will be a continuous process, and it will guide our work — it will help you move forward to get to where you want to be.

It takes courage to realize you're struggling. Even though you've been trying to help yourself feel better, you're still struggling. You deserve to feel better. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, depression, or past trauma, frustrated with a relationship, gambling a lot, feeling stuck and uncertain, or wonder how much longer you can keep it together, I'd be glad to help you get to a place of feeling better. We all need and deserve to have someone to talk to about the toughest and most painful parts of our lives. Life often can be incredibly difficult. It's good to know we don't have to deal with it alone. For the past two decades I've helped adults and couples: 1) Reduce their stress, anxiety, depression, and effects from trauma 2) Accept and cope with chronic pain and chronic illness 3) Reduce & recover from problem gambling 4) Develop greater connections while addressing conflicts, unhelpful patterns, intimacy issues, and relationship stressors. You don't have to feel alone nor do you need suffer any longer. If you're ready to make a change so you can feel better and create the life you want and deserve to have, it'd be my honor to help. Therapy is an investment in your well-being, growth, health, and happiness. I encourage you to take the next step by reaching out and contacting me. Let's begin!
