Life can be unexpected and difficult at times. I believe that life’s challenges provide an opportunity for us to know ourselves more fully, by discovering our inner strengths and creating positive change for a more fulfilling life. It is my goal to provide a safe space for healing and growth by using a compassionate and honest approach that empowers you to live an authentic life full of purpose and meaning.
I believe the relationship between client and therapist to be one of collaboration, trust, and non-judgment. As your therapist, I will work with you to identify what a life of fulfillment and joy looks like for you and support and empower you in reaching your short- and long-term goals.
Since 2016, I have worked in adult residential treatment and outpatient settings as a case manager, therapist, and program director. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, life transitions, codependency, substance use and recovery, self-esteem, boundaries and communication, and complex family dynamics.

I believe one of the bravest things you can ever do is the work of understanding your own story. Because of that, I’m passionate about helping people find freedom and growth by rewriting the parts of their stories that have left them with a negative self image.
I am gentle and non-judgmental, but straightforward. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process, where our relationship is a safe space to explore pain, shame, and trauma. I also believe that our struggles are opportunities for learning and growth. Understanding our stories deepens and reshapes our lives, and I can’t wait to hear yours.
I transitioned to private practice after leaving a residential substance use treatment facility where I facilitated and managed the LGBTQIA+ programming.

I believe that people can create the most authentic life they choose to live. Often clients come to counseling to work through predictable life transitions as marriage, career changes, or parenting issues. At other times, clients need to heal past trauma or to change the trajectory of their life. I find that clients are sometimes living out of old “scripts” or patterns established early in life and feel stuck. Together we explore these “stuck” places and create new patterns for a healthier and more productive life. I am a firm believer in the strength and resilience of the human spirit as I have witnessed remarkable transformations when clients are empowered to move toward the life they truly want to live.
I have over three decades in the practice of psychotherapy with individuals, couples, families and groups. I work with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationships, and most other life challenges. I am also a professor in the Clinical Mental Health Counseling Program at Walden University and enjoy teaching and supervising next generation of counselors.

>“We can’t have all of life’s answers. Rather, we all get stuck at times, left wondering how on earth we can fix what feels stuck or broken.”-Taryn
Taryn is trained in Marriage and Family Therapy and with this training believes that relationships matter. Whether it be the relationship you have with yourself or the family and friends around you, there is something significant about the relationships that inevitably mold us.
Taryn incorporates systems theory using a variety of methods, including mindfulness, emotionally-focused therapy, and internal family systems, to help her clients connect with themselves and others. She is holistic in practice, asking her clients to consider how they can become the healthiest versions of themselves and challenging them to take steps in that direction.
For the past 5 years, she has worked with individuals, couples, and families (as many as you can fit in a room) with a wide array of challenges, including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and grief. Despite her experience, she enjoys most, however, working with those who feel comfortable in her presence, placing people before their problems.

We can diagnose just about anything that’s wrong with you, but how about what’s right with you? I believe it’s important to know yourself authentically in order to heal, and it’s my job to help you find yourself, without judgement, in order for you to reach your goals.
Utilizing Choice Theory, EMDR, positive psychology and a healthy dose of honesty, I want to help define those short or long term goals for a better, more peaceful you. A little bit of serenity can go a long way. I believe in the importance of spirituality, with or without religion.
Over the past five years I have worked in inpatient and outpatient substance abuse settings. I understand what it takes to move on. My focus is on anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and “finding one’s path.” My speciality is addiction.

I have been practicing massage therapy since I was a little girl. I enjoyed giving back massages to my mom and foot massages to my dad. It made them feel so much better. As a child, I had no idea that this could be a life long profession.
When I found out that I could do this for a living and help others, I decided to get trained professionally. I finished schooling in 2004 and have enjoyed my profession since.
I started out in a spa setting in Tupelo, MS. Since then, I have traveled around the country working in different therapeutic environments from the relaxing spa setting to the world of palliative & hospice care. I have had the privilege of training with many great teachers and learning therapeutic techniques such as infant massage, cupping, myofascial release, Swedish, hot stone, deep tissue, prenatal, & Reiki. I am in the process of learning a Manual Lymph Drainage technique in which I hope to offer by October of 2021.
As I move forward with my career, my focus will continue to be on the Mind/Body connection. In our society, the two are often thought of as separate. But as I learn and grow, it is evident that these two work as partners. We need to have the awareness that our body affects our mind and vise versa. This is why I have chosen to be a part of The Wellness Center of Oxford. They have a mission to help people reconnect their mind and body for a holistic healing.
I look forward to a journey of healing with you.
Happy Trails,
Jennifer McMullen, LMT #931

With a background in as an experiential therapist, I know the power of traditional talk therapy, but also utilize experienced-based interventions including expressive arts and guided meditation.
With knowledge of and experience implementing various counseling theories and techniques, yogic tradition and mindfulness concepts, I am able to assist clients in creating a unique and dynamic plan for identifying and removing barriers to maintaining internal peace.
Non-judgement, respect, and unconditional positive regard are always the underlying factor in my therapeutic relationships. I do not believe anyone can grow if they do not first believe they are worthy and capable of doing so- a place not often reached when feeling critiqued.
I strive to help my clients empower and equip themselves with the tools necessary for achieving their current and future goals. As Jon Kabat-Zinn said, “Wherever you go, there you are;” often we focus on ‘fixing’ specific events or situations only for another to arise in its place. My hope is that through the counseling process every person uncovers their innate ability to access peace despite any and all external events.

Being heard is one of the most important components to healing. As a trained EMDR and TF-CBT therapist, Ashley specializes in trauma work with children, teens, and adults. Over the last 4 years, Ashley has worked with children and teens, helping them overcome struggles with Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, DID, DMDD, and ADHD.
As a therapist, mom, and human, I have seen the benefits of allowing space for healing. When children and teens are provided this opportunity, change and wellness takes place. Self-esteem, decision making, and relationships are no longer derived from brokenness but rather from a place of newfound wholeness.
