Amy Shelton, PhD

Clinic Director

I began my career as a College Therapist and Counselor at Vanderbilt University in Nashville and have over 10 years of experience in both counseling and teaching psychology.

She has a passion for helping people and provides care with a patient centered approach. Amy uses an integrative counseling method that leans heavily on Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy to meet each patient’s individual needs. She is EMDR trained and works with patients who are dealing with trauma.

Andrew Holmgren, PhD

Clinic Supervisor

I approach counseling from a collaborative perspective, in which you, the client, and I work together to identify ways to address your concerns and meet your therapeutic goals.

In session, I take an interpersonal stance where we explore the ways that your relationships with others can impact the concerns that brought you to therapy as well as how these concerns might impact your current relationships. I firmly believe that each client has the ability to accomplish their goals when they can engage authentically in a nonjudgmental therapeutic space.

Jeri Hulan

Clinic Administrator

I have over 15 years of leadership experience in healthcare across several service lines, but the genuine care and compassion of both our Staff and Providers is incomparable.

I am incredibly lucky to support our associates in delivering the highest quality service to our patients and their families each day. We are all on life’s journey to find purpose, fulfillment, and peace. Our Team at Family Care Center is here to help you along that path when you need it.

Lee Moore, LCSW

Clinical Therapist

Worry happens in your mind, stress happens in your body, and anxiety happens in your mind and your body. In small doses, worry, stress and anxiety can be positive forces in our lives.

But most of us are too worried, too stressed and too anxious. How do we manage this worry, stress and anxiety in a healthy manner? My strength is building rapport, empathy and holding space for my clients by listening and utilizing curiosity. Focusing on both the physical sensations in your body and sharing life challenges is a comprehensive approach to therapy. I utilize EMDR, narrative therapy, emotional freedom, somatic exercises, technique(tapping), DBT and CBT.
