Healthcare providers, families, leaders, caregivers, educators, and children in Memphis and across Tennessee. Three licensed psychologists, three distinct approaches, one standard of care.
Psychotherapy for adults, couples, families, and teens. Psychological assessment for children and adults, including ADHD, autism, and learning evaluations. All care is psychologist-led and evidence-based.
In person in the Memphis area. Telehealth may be available in Tennessee and other jurisdictions where the treating psychologist is legally authorized to practice.
Care shaped for the weight you carry.
Four pathways into our practice. Each one names who it is for, what you may be experiencing, which services are relevant, and what Ballast distinctly brings.
Caring for Others
For healthcare workers, caregivers, educators, and faith leaders.
You spend your days holding other people's pain, decisions, and fear. Over time the weight accumulates quietly: burnout, compassion fatigue, moral injury, the sense that you are running on fumes while everyone else depends on you to be steady. We see the people who are rarely seen themselves.
Leading Under Pressure
For executives, founders, and professionals carrying real responsibility.
Leadership asks you to be the one others turn to, often without anywhere to turn yourself. Decision fatigue, isolation, and the quiet erosion of meaning can settle in beneath the performance. Confidential care for the people who cannot afford to fall apart in public.
Seeking Clarity
For adults, parents, and families looking for a name for what has been hard.
Sometimes the question is not yet how to feel better, but what is actually going on. Rigorous psychological assessment for ADHD, autism, learning and cognitive differences, and complex diagnostic questions across the lifespan. The right understanding changes what comes next.
Going Deeper
For people ready for more than symptom relief.
Some come not only to feel less pain but to understand themselves more honestly. Questions of meaning, identity, purpose, faith, and formation have a place here. Integrative, whole-person therapy that attends to the full picture of a life, not just the symptom that brought you in.
