We offer reduced rates based on income for individuals and families seeking counseling, life coaching, or psychiatric medication management. Additionally, thanks to our generous donors, we are able to offer scholarship funding to ensure that no one misses out on the care they need.
Our Story
Branches was founded in 2007 after our founder experienced healing through emotional health care for his own life struggles and later felt called by God to create a place of emotional and spiritual healing in Middle Tennessee. He envisioned a place that would be led by highly-trained, compassionate, Christian mental health care providers and a place that would never turn anyone away due to financial ability.
Our Services
We offer a range of mental and emotional healthcare services led by compassionate, experienced providers. While counseling is our main and most popular service, we also offer psychiatric medication management, life coaching, support groups, workshops, 5-day intensives, and training and education. Each of our providers utilizes the latest and best practices while maintaining a Biblical worldview.
Our Support
Our mission has always been to provide quality, compassionate mental and emotional healthcare to anyone regardless of their ability to pay. We offer income-based rates and when those rates present a financial hurdle we offer our clients scholarship to allow them to pay as little as $0 for counseling and our other core services. This is only possible because of our generous supporters.

I began to visit Branches following a career in Law Enforcement where I saw some of the most horrible acts of mankind. Branches helped me find happiness again and eliminated my anxiety. It seems each employee felt called to this ministry and you feel that when you walk in the door. Tremendous place!

I came from California and was referred to this location to do a week intensive! It was amazing from the moment I walked in to the time I left! Everyone was great and the team was very kind, compassionate and thoughtful from beginning to end! My journey was worth every step along the way!
Matt List
The Lord used Branches to save my life and my marriage. At a time of great despair, Branches was recommended to me, and I was seen quickly. I can't imagine what my life would have been like had I not had Branches to help me. Hope was brought back into my life and I'm happier and healthier than ever.

FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions
The answers to these common questions may help you discover whether Branches is the right fit for you.
What is my first step if I want to begin counseling, medication management, life coaching, or any other service?
To get started, click HERE and follow the instructions to complete the form. We'll then get back to you as soon as possible. If you'd prefer to call us directly then that's fine too! You can reach our Intake Coordinator at (615) 904-7170.
Does Branches accept insurance?
We accept most commercial insurance plans for psychiatric medication management. We also accept some insurance plans for counseling, however, a very limited number of our counselors are able to see clients using insurance as payment which limits appointment availability.
How do I cancel or reschedule an appointment?
You may cancel or reschedule an appointment by clicking on the "Client Login" link at the top of the webpage or by calling us. A fee of $50 will be automatically charged to your credit card on file if you cancel less than 24 hours prior to your appointment time or if you fail to show for your appointment without notifying us.
What will the first contact or call to Branches be like?
You may contact us by calling us, by completing the "Contact Us" form, or by completing the "Get Started" form. If you call us we will do our best to answer the phone and will happily answer any questions you have. If you reach our voicemail please leave a message so that we will know that you called and we will return your call as soon as possible. If you contact us through the website forms, either the "Contact Us" or the "Get Started" forms, we will contact you back as soon as possible.
What if I can't afford the fee for a service?
For most of our services, Branches offers income-based reduced fees. For counseling, life coaching, and medication management, we offer scholarship for those who can't afford the income-based reduced fee. We don't want an inability to pay to stand in the way of you receiving the help you desire. Give us a call or email us for more information.
Does Branches accept TennCare or Medicaid?
Regrettably, the State of Tennessee does not permit Branches to accept clients who have TennCare or Medicaid insurance, even if the client is willing to come as a self-pay client. The state has designated providers that are pre-authorized to accept these insurances.
For clients with these insurances, we refer to: DePriest Center: (931) 486-8670; Kimara Wilson-Clarke: (931) 368-3234; Sabin Behavioral Health: (615) 656-3211; Crayton Counseling & Associates (615) 590-3741; Scott Russell (615) 977-0052
These counselors we recommend may not be able to take TennCare, but are not limited to the same rules that we are here at Branches.
Where is Branches located?
We have 4 office locations, each in Tennessee. We have 2 office locations in Murfreesboro, including our main office. Our other offices are located in Nashville and Mt. Juliet. For more info, click here.
What happens if I forget to show up for an appointment or cancel with short notice?
If you don't show for an appointment or if you cancel less than 24 hours before your appointment time, you will automatically be charged $50 to the credit card we have on file for you. If you are using insurance to cover your visits, your insurance company will not cover any portion of this charge, therefore, the full $50 fee will be charged directly to you regardless of your normal copay. In addition, HSA and FSA debit cards cannot cover the costs of late cancellation fees and no show fees.
