Mitchell McDonald, LCSW

Mitchell McDonald is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Tennessee and Oregon with eight years of experience in mental health work. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and problems tied to addiction. He also supports people dealing with anger, relationship strain, family concerns, and issues related to sexual orientation. He speaks English and works with adults and youth, as noted in his background.

Mitchell focuses on practical skills you can use between sessions. He talks through emotion regulation, boundary setting, and coping strategies for cravings or compulsive behaviors. For people struggling with obsessive thoughts or compulsive actions, he addresses concrete steps to reduce their impact on daily life. Sessions emphasize clear goals and small changes that add up.

He has experience across different treatment methods and adapts his approach to each person. That can mean using problem-focused work some weeks and more skills-based practice other weeks. He aims to help clients find ways to handle stress and manage relationships that feel realistic for their everyday routines.

Mitchell’s work includes helping clients notice patterns that make problems worse and practicing alternatives in-session. He offers straightforward feedback and collaborative planning so clients leave with next steps. To get started, clients follow the site’s scheduling path and complete a short questionnaire before their first appointment.
