Guiding all ages through the many challenges of life.

I’m Joe Mixon, licensed therapist in Knoxville, TN.

Struggling with mental health is scary. When you feel like you’ve tried all the tips, tricks, and self-help guides, you become overwhelmed and don’t know where else to go. Getting help from someone who understands is important. I help you learn ways to manage these overwhelming feelings and move on a positive path forward.

Parenting is challenging. At Mixon Therapy, I work with your child one-on-one to build a foundation of trust allowing us to explore healthy behaviors. When you’re ready to get the help your family deserves, I’m ready to help you. Email me today to schedule our first session and get your family on the road to feeling better today.

Building Confidence and Understanding

Helping children and teens find solutions to challenges.

Growing up is no easy task, especially these days. Young people face both peer and academic pressures, shifts in the family (like divorce or relocation), the onset of hormones in adolescence and the ever-present challenge of managing their emotions. The potential issues and intense feelings run a wide gamut, and for many children and adolescents, this is the first time they have encountered and had to manage these emotions.

Are parent(s) included in therapy?

Parenting directly impacts how our children interact in all areas of life.

I work with the child individually on interventions and empower parents to encourage in the home, at school, and in relationships. I do this in a collaborative manner that empowers you as the parent to sustain lasting change for your child.
