About

Emily Eisenhart Melton, M.A., LPC/MHSP, LMFT

Originally from the Northeast, I have lived in and provided counseling in Knoxville since 2010.  My clinical experience has been in non-profit settings and includes working with college students, substance abuse, and the criminal justice system. I earned my Master degree in Marriage and Family Therapy/Professional Counseling at Johnson University.

I consider the counseling room a sacred space in which I have the privilege to walk alongside of others. I am honored to be invited into your story and witness your journey towards hope, growth, change, and healing.  As a Christian, my faith influences the lens in which I view and understand the world.  Whether or not you are religious or spiritual, my belief is: you are worthy of being known and valued. My hope is for you to experience this as we work together towards creating a fulfilling life.
