Dr. Brenda Rambo

Dr. Rambo received her doctoral degree from Vanderbilt University’s Peabody College in Human Development Counseling, and has practiced as a psychologist for 25 years. She received broad and diverse training doing her internship and working in a community mental setting for many years.

Dr. Rambo established Rambo & Associates twenty years ago with offices in Shelbyville, Clarksville, and Brentwood, Tennessee. By the end of the 1990s, she was ready for a professional change and started to downsize the practice and worked only as a sole practitioner. In early 2001 she had an opportunity to teach graduate students at a large southern university as adjunct professor and was hired the next year as a full-time assistant professor, primarily teaching graduate students in the psychology department. She stayed in this position for several years, and recently returned to full-time private practice which is and has always been her passion. Her office is located in Brentwood.

Dr. Rambo offers a message of hope and encouragement to people who are facing tough life challenges. She encourages honesty and integrity in working through the difficulties of life, and motivates people to become their best.
