EMDR and Trauma therapy in Murfreesboro, TN might be right for you if…

Feeling stuck? Like you're trapped in an endless loop of...

Meet Courtney Warren, LCSW

EMDR and trauma therapist in Murfreesboro, TN

I'm Courtney Warren, and I've helped hundreds of people make this exact transformation. Using a powerful combination of EMDR and other evidence based modalities, we'll turn those "what-if" scenarios into your new reality.

My journey into the field of therapy began long before I earned a degree or sat across from clients in a counseling room. As a teenager, I experienced firsthand the impact that compassionate, skilled therapists can have on someone’s life during difficult seasons. Through my own healing journey, I discovered not only the value of being deeply seen and understood, but also the transformative power of safe, authentic human connection. Those experiences planted the first seeds of what would eventually become my life’s calling.

With a client-centered approach at the heart of my practice, I am committed to recognizing and respecting your unique journey. Together, we'll tailor a therapeutic path that addresses your specific challenges, fostering an atmosphere of growth and the possibility of a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I charge $125 per 50-minute individual session.

    Therapy is an investment in your emotional well-being, relationships, and overall quality of life. My goal is to provide personalized, high-quality care that supports lasting change and healing. If you have questions about fees or payment options, I am happy to discuss them during your consultation.

  • At this time, I provide therapy exclusively through telehealth.

    Virtual therapy allows me to serve clients throughout Tennessee while offering the convenience of attending sessions from the comfort and privacy of your own space. Telehealth eliminates travel time, reduces transportation costs, and makes it easier to prioritize your mental health within a busy schedule.

    Many clients find that being in a familiar environment helps them feel more comfortable, relaxed, and open during sessions.

  • I'm so glad you're considering reaching out.

    The best place to start is by scheduling a free 15-minute consultation. During this call, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy, answer any questions you may have about the process, and determine whether we're a good fit to work together.

    We'll also review scheduling options, fees, and any logistical details so you can feel informed and comfortable moving forward.

  • Therapy sessions are 50 minutes long and typically occur once per week.

    Research consistently shows that weekly therapy is the most effective approach for building momentum, creating meaningful change, and strengthening the therapeutic relationship. Because of this, I ask clients to commit to weekly sessions during the first six months of treatment whenever possible.

    Biweekly sessions are generally reserved for clients who have established a strong foundation in therapy and are transitioning toward maintenance or completion of treatment.

  • Starting therapy can feel exciting, hopeful, and sometimes a little nerve-wracking. That's completely normal.

    During our first session, we'll review your intake paperwork, discuss what led you to seek therapy, and begin exploring your goals for our work together. We'll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, and there is no pressure to share everything at once.

    The first few sessions often involve gathering information about your history, relationships, and life experiences so I can better understand your story and the challenges you're facing. Throughout the process, I intentionally check in with clients to ensure therapy continues to feel supportive, collaborative, and aligned with their needs.

    My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and empowered as we begin your healing journey together.

  • Many people assume they need to be in crisis before seeking therapy, but therapy can be beneficial for anyone who wants support, insight, or personal growth.

    You may benefit from therapy if you're feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stressed, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, struggling in relationships, navigating a major life transition, processing past experiences, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply. You don't need to have all the answers or be able to explain exactly what's wrong before reaching out.

    Therapy provides a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences while developing healthier ways of coping and relating to yourself and others. Together, we can identify what's keeping you stuck, build on your strengths, and work toward the life and relationships you want.

    If you're wondering whether therapy might help, that's often a sign that it's worth exploring. A free consultation can help determine whether therapy is the right fit for your needs and goals at this time.

  • I currently accept a select few insurance policies, please reach out to find out if yours is accepted.

    For clients choosing to work with me as an out-of-network provider, I am happy to provide a monthly superbill that you can submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Many of my clients are able to receive partial reimbursement through their out-of-network mental health benefits. I encourage you to contact your insurance provider directly to learn more about your specific coverage.

    Why work with an out-of-network therapist?

    Greater flexibility in treatment
    Insurance companies often determine the frequency and duration of therapy. Working out of network allows us to meet for as long as clinically beneficial without concerns about coverage limitations.

    More personalized care
    Your treatment can be tailored to your unique needs rather than insurance requirements or restrictions.

    Increased privacy and confidentiality
    Insurance companies typically require a mental health diagnosis and may request treatment information. Working out of network allows your personal information to remain more private.

    Fewer disruptions in care
    Avoid potential issues related to authorization requirements, claim denials, or changes in insurance coverage that can interrupt treatment.

    Treatment focused on your needs
    Our work together is guided by what is best for you and your goals, rather than insurance guidelines.
