About Michael Gardner

I have been an LCSW in Tennessee for 22 years. I have worked with adults and couples. Geriatric patients in long term care and homeless Veterans. Using Mindfulness,I have helped clients reduce stress and anxiety. By increasing coping skills, motivation, self esteem & confidence grows.

Your psychotherapy sessions allow me to get to know you to create an individual intervention and offer viable options to facilitate change. Using Supportive Psychotherapy , healing happens .The first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
