Meet the Family Care Center West Knoxville Providers

Michelle Mackey, LPC, LAC

Clinic Director

Skyler Dayton

Clinic Administrator

Searching for help from healthcare providers can be one of the hardest steps to get started with treatment.

Once you make that step, it is my job and goal to make sure you are supported and assisted with anything you may need during that time.

Elizabeth Nelson

LCSW

I am a licensed clinical social worker with a warm, kind, and intentional approach to healing. I specialize in adult mental health with a concentration on relationship challenges.

We can often find ourselves surviving in this life instead of thriving, experiencing the same patterns over again. I utilize a wide range of techniques but my favored one is teaching patients how to be curious about themselves and understand ‘why’ they do what they do. Our time together will consist of you learning to recognize your relational patterns, targeting areas where you feel ‘stuck’, and assisting you with engaging yourself in a compassionate, nonjudgmental way. I am passionate about issues related to trauma, depression, anxiety, postpartum depression, relational discord, self-esteem and family of origin dynamics. I would love to journey with you to discover and love yourself!

Leah Roylance

LMFT

I bring a balance of humility, confidence, authenticity & compassion. I look forward to becoming a part of your support team on your journey.

I have had the pleasure of working with individuals, of all ages and diverse backgrounds, for over 24 years in both community mental health and private sector settings
Utilizing a flexible therapeutic style to match the needs of my clients, it is my objective to support individuals in a collaborative nature with personal growth, self-awareness, insight, skill building and empowerment.
I have supported a wide range of client-identified concerns including but not limited to ADHD, depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, couples, anger management and interpersonal conflict.
While I enjoy working with all ages, I have a niche with preteens, adolescents, young adults, and families.
Capable of containing a safe space for some of the more challenging topics while also understanding the power of humor and human connection.

Meredith Steed

LMFT

Clients from all backgrounds, the LGBTQIA+ community, and cultures are welcome in my office. I believe the client should set the pace for counseling.

I am a licensed Marriage & Family Therapist. My counseling approach involves empathy, humor, and building a therapeutic alliance. I use family systems theories, such as systemic and strategic, and CBT when working with clients. I believe that the relationships in one’s life play a major role in, and can shape who we are.

Susan Stirewalt

LPC-MHSP

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC/MHSP) and EMDR-trained clinician and specialize in working with trauma, anxiety, ADHD, and depression in adults, children, and teens.

When working with children, I utilize play therapy, sand tray, or other expressive modalities to facilitate therapeutic interventions that resonate with their individual personalities. I am also certified in TF-CBT (Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), which is a specific modality tailored to help children process traumatic events. I enjoy walking alongside clients of all ages to help them make sense of their past, heal emotionally, and have a renewed sense of strength and competence. Each of us has a story and a purpose, and my goal is to help you feel welcome and known and experience transformational growth.

I’ve worked with individuals from a variety of backgrounds and walks of life, and I especially enjoy working with individuals who are experiencing concerns with their mood, anxiety, grief, a history of trauma, and substance use.

I completed my doctorate in clinical psychology at Xavier University and completed my pre-doctoral internship and post-doctoral fellowship at Cherokee Health Systems. My treatment approach combines strategies and concepts from ACT, CBT, and DBT, while emphasizing a client’s autonomy and values. When I’m not at work, you can find me reading a book, snuggling with my cat, Comet, checking out local restaurants, or hiking.

Ashley Ross

PhD, Psychologist

Wherever you are in life, you weren’t meant to walk through it alone. It would be an honor to support you as you navigate your journey.

Finding the right therapist can be challenging, and it’s crucial to find someone you can connect with and trust. My approach is relational; meaning I strive to create a nonjudgmental space to truly listen and engage with you. I work with a wide range of issues, particularly with women who have experienced damaging relationships, unhealthy eating patterns, or trauma.

Briana Whitman

Medical Office Receptionist

You never know what a smiling face and a little conversation can do for a person. I’m excited offer that here with Family Care Center

I got into healthcare because of the experience and opportunities that come with it. Not knowing that I would soon have years under my belt. I’ve been doing healthcare receptionist work for about 5 plus years now. I can honestly say I enjoy it more and more everyday. From patients making my day, to me having the opportunity to make theirs. It’s really no better feeling

What our patients say

“Family Care Center has been providing me and my family with vital therapy sessions for some time now and they have provided us with so much insight and understanding for one another. We are healing and without Family Care Center I don’t know if it would have been possible. I highly recommend Family Care Center for families looking for guidance or anyone wanting better for themselves with the knowledge of how to do so.”

“My husband and I had a wonderful experience with our therapist. She is excellent with helping couples work through issues, while giving helpful, insightful, expert advice on how to have a better marriage. She is also great with parenting/step-parenting and had great advice for my teen step-daughter as well. I can’t recommend Family Care Center enough!”

“I have searched most of my adult life trying to find people like the ones at Family Care Center. These kind and compassionate people are not only experts in their field, but they are also people who have compassion and sincerely listen. These kind and loving people make every effort to direct individuals toward the proper treatment plan and go to great lengths in doing so. I’m so very grateful for all the kindness and understanding bestowed upon me. From those who are employed in Customer Service and Reception to the Coordinators as well as the Doctors and Therapists. I highly recommend!”

“We were looking for a psychiatrist for our son and a therapist he could relate to. From the first visit we could tell they were different in a very good way from other providers. Our son used to not like going to his appointments and did not get along well with his therapists but here that has changed. We are very happy with the care he is receiving and recommend them to others we know who are struggling with finding a good provider.”

“Easy and quick to make an appointment. Considered my needs and was able to connect me with a great therapist. They've gone above and beyond to help me figure out how to help me develop a healthier mental state and how to deal with medication-resistant depression.”
