Allysen Efferson, M.S. Counseling Psychology, MFT-I

Hello prospective clients. I am a temporarily licensed Marriage & Family Therapist- Intern under supervision, earning hours to full licensure. I am only licensed to treat clients living in the state of Tennessee or outside of the United States. I have lived abroad and am well acquainted with the joys and challenges of navigating relationships, marriage, and parenting children while living overseas. My specialties are marriage and family issues, trauma responsive care, and developing resiliency in adverse conditions. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), and the Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM). I have experience treating both faith-based and non faith-based clients. My primary theoretical models for treatment include Attachment Theory, Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Existential Theory, and Emotionally Focused Therapy. I have five years of experience using the teletherapy delivery model and have treated clients all around the world. I am able to meet with clients on their schedule and can provide a platform (Zoom.com) that complies with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). I am also able to travel to clients on a case by case basis. I do not accept insurance and I charge a fixed rate of $100 an hour. Payment can be made by credit card (+ $3 surcharge), Venmo, or PayPal. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me by phone, text, or email. Be well, and I look forward to hearing from you.
