About Me:

I’m Wynne Whitley, A-LPC/MHSP.

I work with young adults and teens in the often messy, in-between parts of life—when things are changing, expectations feel high, and it’s not always clear how to feel like yourself in the middle of it all.

In therapy, I focus on helping you slow things down and make sense of what you’re carrying internally. This often includes patterns of overthinking, self-doubt, difficulty trusting yourself, or navigating relationships in a way that feels overwhelming or confusing. Over time, the work is about helping you feel more steady and secure in who you are, so those internal patterns don’t feel as consuming or defining. My approach is collaborative and grounded, blending mindfulness, ACT, DBT, and experiential work to help you build a different relationship with your thoughts and emotions—not just manage them.

I’ve had the privilege of working in both private practice and higher levels of care, including Rogers Behavioral Health and the Renfrew Center, supporting individuals through a wide range of emotional and life experiences.

I hold a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University, a Master’s in Human Development from Vanderbilt University, and a Bachelor’s in Psychology from Georgetown University.

My background as a former college athlete also shapes how I understand pressure, identity, and self-expectation—especially in young adulthood.

More than anything, I want therapy to feel like a place where you can slow down, make sense of things, and start to feel a bit steadier in yourself.

…And because it’s always nice to know a little about who you’re working with—outside of therapy, you can find me spending time with friends, getting outside for walks, and dancing around to music for a little reset and grounding.
