Therapy to alleviate suffering and promote well-being in people
In-Person Therapy in Memphis & Virtual Therapy across Tennessee for Adults and Adolescents
Ferrand Psychological Services
Christopher Ferrand, Psy.D. | Licensed Psychologist—HSP
You’ve tried handling it on your own but things aren’t getting better.
You hoped it would eventually go away.
You decide it’s time to ask for help.
Knowing where to look for a therapist can be difficult
-
Maybe you have no idea where to find a therapist, let alone the right person
-
And if you did, how do you know who is legit, and who can help with the problem that concerns you?
-
And will those providers actually be “taking new patients?” Sometimes those providers work for hospitals or organizations. Some see kids or adults exclusively
-
This is a real question. Will you feel comfortable, accepted, and not judged? Will you feel like they have experience with your problem? Will they actually have something helpful to offer?
I work with adults and adolescents who are tired of suffering, ready to work, hungry to learn, and who have struggled with overwhelming feelings, thoughts, memories, and behavior patterns long enough.
I am a Licensed Psychologist in Memphis who finds meaning in empowering people to transcend histories, diagnoses, and current stressors.
Imagine a world where…
You have the tools and know how to feel your feelings in ways that promote well-being.
You experience memories, but you are able to work through them.
You know and believe that you are not defined by what happened to you, by a diagnosis, or by the words of other people.
You have tools to help manage your thoughts.
You can pause and make conscious choices that match your values when you are having strong feelings.
You can live freely and fully and do things that matter to you—even if doing so brings about strong feelings.
Now, imagine that possibility while suspending your beliefs about what is possible and what is not
Do I have expertise on the issue that you are seeking therapy for?
-
Common problems I am experienced with include depression, anxiety, panic attacks, different phobias, trauma and stressor-related disorders, bipolar disorder, and various stress-related concerns. I have much experience with grief and loss. I have also worked with people experiencing hallucinations. I am very used to working with people experiencing suicidal thoughts. I see people with alcohol and drug use concerns regularly.
-
One thing that is unique about me is that I have worked in a primary care medical setting since 2016 and am very used to working with a wide range of problem types. You might be surprised by the things doctors have asked me to help with that involve human behavior. Working in urban Memphis, I am also used to working with people who are very different than me, culturally, and as a result, am sensitive to matters of diversity. I am used to adapting and finding a way to be helpful in a meaningful, thorough, and non-superficial way.
-
Many looking for a therapist are looking for an expert with their problem. There is a good chance I will have experience with most problems, though if I don’t I am very quick to adapt. If needed I dig into the research, and if I cannot be helpful I assist with helping people find a referral to a specialist.
