Athena Care is a group of caring psychiatrists, psychologists, nurse practitioners, and psychotherapists. Founded by Dr. Charles Ihrig in 2001, they have grown to be one of the largest private practices in Tennessee. Because of their size, they have a clinician that is experienced and knowledgeable in most mental health conditions and virtually every area of psychological practice.
They offer individual, family, and couples counseling to people of all ages. They also offer effective advanced interventions such as TMS (trans-cranial magnetic stimulation) and Spravato (esketamine) therapy under the supervision of our Chief Medical Officer, Rakesh Amin, M.D.
They specialize in diagnostic and forensic work. They have a specialized team of assessment professionals working with court related cases, autism spectrum issues, general diagnostic evaluations, pre-surgical evaluations, fitness for duty, and law enforcement screening.
