Licensed to offer therapy services in Virginia, Tennessee, and Michigan, Dr. Honeycutt is often sought out due to the advanced IFS (Level 3) training he received in 2010 under the model's founder, Dr. Richard Schwartz. With particular interest in how the ancient Judeo-Christian understanding of the psyche (soul) overlaps with modern theories of mental health, he has spoken on this subject at conferences, educational seminars, and university classrooms. Approaching work with clients from a Christian framework of psycho-spiritual health, Dr. Honeycutt combines modern-day techniques and psychological research with an ancient understanding of the human condition as created by God. Non-Christian clients who are interested in such an approach are also welcome. Sessions are typically offered online for those living outside the Lynchburg area.

In addition to being a Licensed Professional Counselor, I am also a Registered Art Therapist. Trained under the broader umbrella of Expressive Arts Therapy, I believe in the power of creativity, play, exploration, and expression which offers healing, not solely through traditional talk therapy, but through other expressive means – dance, movement, poetry, painting, improv, and more. I am trained in EMDR, and I value the use of somatic (body) work to facilitate release of embedded trauma. Sometimes, even when we understand logically that we are free from danger, our body still holds a primal fear response. I am dedicated to creating a therapeutic safe space for anyone who wants to embark on a healing journey. To this end, I lean into a strength-based, client-centered, trauma-informed philosophy. Conversations, artmaking, and guided experientials are always presented as invitations as I practice active listening and an open and curious mindset towards what the client wants to explore, create, and share. In my non-profit job, I work as a sexual health educator, HIV tester, counselor, and advocate. I practice a curious, non-judgmental approach and do not shrink away from “taboo” topics. I engage with a wide spectrum of individuals and commit myself to justice and equality for everyone, paying special attention to those in marginalized groups. I offer a safe space for LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, neurodivergent, people with disabilities, and those who may see the world through a different lens.

I specialize in working with college students, young adults, individuals, and couples navigating trauma, academic stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, substance use, and life transitions. I have experience providing services in College Counseling and Psychological Services settings, where I’ve supported students through personal, relational, and academic challenges. My approach is trauma-informed and integrative. I use EMDR along with other evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), to support holistic healing and emotional well-being. I strive to create a compassionate, collaborative space where clients can process their experiences, build resilience, and move toward meaningful change.

Do you struggle with anxiety or feeling disconnected from yourself? Do you hope that life could feel more connected, fulfilling, and aligned with who you are? Do you want to explore and express parts of yourself that are hidden or suppressed? I believe therapy is a sacred process- one that offers you a safe, supportive place to explore your inner/outer experiences & reconnect with your authentic self. I believe that healing shouldn’t feel so out of reach—that change is possible, and that you are worthy of feeling whole. I offer individualized, trauma-informed counseling for those who are ready to go deeper in their healing. My approach is eclectic & integrative, drawing from a range of therapeutic modalities to meet your unique needs with compassion, acceptance, & support. I aim to create a safe, compassionate space where you can show up exactly as you are. I help you build insight into patterns, develop practical tools, and gently process life experiences. Above all, I hope our work leads to meaningful breakthroughs & small victories—each one a step forward on your path to healing & wholeness. I’ll walk with you toward self-understanding, emotional balance, and a more meaningful life. Book online today for a free consultation, and let’s take the first step together.

As a licensed psychologist with over ten years of clinical training and experience, I have had the great fortune of supporting individuals from all walks of life who are working to make peace with their past, to connect with their present, and to build hope about their future. I work with adults of all backgrounds and orientations. My Approach… I strive to provide tailored support for my clients as they address issues like anxiety, depression, addiction, past trauma, communication issues, anger management, symptoms of serious mental illness, adjustment and decision-making issues, and relationship problems. Using an individualized, nonjudgmental approach, I will work with you collaboratively on building support, creating healthy independence, developing self-compassion and self-acceptance, clarifying values, and identifying goals for improving coping, fulfillment, and self-concept.

Everyone has a story. I am a person-centered licensed professional counselor who believes in collaborative work with the client. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as well as solution focused therapy to help my clients reach their personal goals. I also utilize existential counseling, and multicultural counseling. In addition to seeing clients in-person in Knoxville, I am also available online to all adult residents of TN for private pay. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the therapist and client. While I am a skilled and trained professional, I am not an expert of you or your life. You have lived unique moments that define who you are. My role is to provide you with the necessary tools to help you cope with difficulties. My role is also to help you make sense of your life, help you identify your feelings, and help you become better at expressing yourself with others. Whatever it is you are struggling with, collaboration between therapist and client is key to helping you find peace and resolution.

College can be a stressful, but rewarding experience. Do you sometimes feel like you don't quite fit in? Do you feel emotionally unprepared at times and honestly, a little awkward? You're not alone, and I want to help you through this journey. If you feel anxious, sad, or that you lack confidence in your abilities, allow me the opportunity to help you through these problems in a virtual therapy environment. You can attend therapy right from your dorm room, in between classes, or wherever and whenever you choose. If you are supporting students, you matter too! I would love to work with you to be your best self.

I use a range of evidence-based approaches to help you gain insight into your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Together, we’ll identify patterns that are holding you back, uncover emotional triggers, and develop tools that help you build confidence, resilience, and self-compassion. Therapy with me is collaborative, flexible, and centered on your goals. We’ll create a personalized treatment plan that fits your needs, which might include mindfulness work, emotional regulation strategies, or understanding how past experiences shape your present.

Hi! I’m Charlie. I’m a therapist who’s passionate about helping people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life changes and self-esteem. My journey to becoming a therapist started with my own experiences as a client. This field has helped me tremendously and I look forward to helping others in that same way. I am LGBTQIA+ affirming and believe in creating a safe place for everyone.

I have been crossing lines of different cultures and expectations for my whole life, and helping others to do so too. My best work is with helping people manage borderline symptoms, depression/anxiety, "oppositional-defiant" behavior, and/or ADHD. I care a lot about strong foundations in the original ideas of the different treatment modalities I use, like CBT, ACT, or DBT (the original "lore," if you will). At the same time, I'm always looking for connections to the various stories and narratives my clients find meaningful in your own everyday lives, whether it's from anime, the Bible, historical figures, or any mix.

I work with people from all kinds of backgrounds and experiences, and I get how overwhelming college life can feel. If you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship stress, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to help you untangle what’s going on and make sense of your emotions. I also speak Spanish and understand what it’s like to navigate life in a new country or culture. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, feel supported, and start building the life you want—one step at a time.
