About My Clients
Are you always a little bit afraid that an anxiety attack is waiting around the corner? Have you been hit with surprise anxiety more times than you can count? I know exactly what you're feeling: the pounding chest, the shortness of breath, the feeling that the walls are closing in and you need out NOW. Attacks can be terrifying, and I don't want you to have to suffer them anymore. Holistic practices can reduce anxiety tremendously, and I look forward to teaching you tools to take your life back.
My Background and Approach
Dr. Marissa Gray, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing Practice from The University of Tennessee Health Science Center, has joined Forward Counseling as a Clinical Assistant Professor of Mental Health Nursing. With extensive experience in pediatric, adult, and recovery mental health, she specializes in resilience, holistic wellness, and trauma-responsive psychiatric care. Gray's interests include advocacy, education, community networking, and program development, aiming to empower healthcare providers and leaders in interdisciplinary teamwork to promote mental health, wellness, and resilience. I want to use my education and my life experience to be impactful. Active listening, partnering with others to become braver and stronger, and creating community relationships are all the reasons I love my job. I believe in co-developing trust within the care provider-patient relationship by reminding the patient that they know their body best
