“Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one’s own way." - Viktor Frankl

Hi, my name is Brandon Antoskow and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor- Mental Health Service Provider located in Columbia, TN. I serve clients all over Tennessee through in-person and telehealth appointments.

My treatment approach is tailored to each individual based on their goals for treatment.

I am also an approved clinical supervisor for those pursuing clinical licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor- Mental Health Service Provider in the state of Tennessee.

I want to come alongside you as a wounded healer, guiding, encouraging, and rooting for you on the path toward connection with yourself and those you love.

Hi, my name is Jamie Haigh, and I work with clients from all over the greater Nashville area, but I love it here in Columbia. I am passionate about creating a safe space where clients can engage with their stories. I believe that engaging with the particularities of our stories illuminates the path toward healing. I combine a strengths-based approach from solution-focused therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy and experiential therapy based on the needs of the client. I work with clients aged 14 and up, and I work with both men and women. I am passionate about working with individuals battling addiction, depression, anxiety, broken relationships, and those engaging with their emotions for the first time.

“Self-care is making the choice to build a life that you do not regularly need to escape from.”

-Brianna West

I have a firmly held belief that everyone deserves to not just survive life, but fully participate in it. One of the most important factors of success in therapy is your relationship with the counselor. It is a big reason why finding a counselor who is a "good fit" is an important decision. That important decision can seem paralyzing but know that I am here to walk alongside you in any way that I can as you build the life that you want. As a counselor, my commitment is to provide a safe and empathetic space where you can explore your challenges, discover your strengths, and embark on a journey of self-discovery and growth in the pursuit of a life that you do not need to regularly escape from.

I look forward to working alongside individuals struggling with addiction, depression, anxiety, and low self-esteem.
