I am licensed in Tennessee with 17 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, relationship issues, & family conflicts. For the past decade, I have worked with the adolescents population in an intensive group therapy setting. I love what I do and making a difference in these kids’ lives. I also work extensively with adults, couples and families. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

I have done one session and it has been a good time and he seemed to be interested and wanted help me.
Jeff is always on time, very professional. He is very attentive to my concerns and always gives me ideas, suggestions as to how I should/ could handle issues. I am always at ease when talking to Jeff. Great guy !
Mr. Scarbrough is personable, knowledgeable, and a fantastic coach. His approach is exactly what I needed, and it has been a pleasure working with him.
Jeff is awesome!
My first time ever doing therapy and Jeffrey made it comfortable and easy
Always great!
Jeff is great. He uses what affects you and gives analogies that you can relate. Offers remedies not advice. I love this guy!!!!
When the world is overwhelming as a child we look to our guardians for comfort. As adults in a constantly overwhelming world full of distrust and sacred vulnerability seeking help alone sets the mind in a stage of naked emptiness. In the moments of dire chaos, to hear the kind, understanding, open minded, personally considerate voice of Mr. Scarborough is a lifeline firmly placed to the hands of the broken spirit. He executes flawless patience and listening, simultaneously deciphering the roots of the trouble forest, enlightening to the situations he offers tools of practice to utilize in attempts of righting the unbalanced; as opposed to the feared practices of helping voices whose opinions come righteous and demanding. I truly believe Mr. Scarborough is capable of leading a life of enlightening, empowering, growing, greatness. In his wake he plants inner strength upon the hearts of those he encounters For his words of kindness, his tools of ideas, his patience and understanding, his refraint from biased or demanding opinion; Thank you, Jeffrey Scarborough. You are a true gift to us all.
Jeffrey is an excellent listener and is results-focused. He's exactly what I've been looking for in a therapist and I'm excited about continuing my journey with him to becoming a better, more thoughtful person.
In our short time together, he was able to point me in such a positive direction. Thank you.
Jeffery Scarborough is great. He always thanks me for sharing and having therapy sessions, which makes me feel confident in sharing the hard things with him. He and I have had 2 sessions and I've already discovered something new about myself. I definitely will keep having therapy sessions with him.
Jeff is a good man and always listened to what I had to say. He isn't "in your face" but has a laid back approach which I like. I would recommend him to anyone.
Jeffrey has been amazing.
