Dustin Riner is a Licensed Professional Counselor dedicated to helping individuals and families heal, grow, and rediscover their sense of purpose. My work centers around empowering people to believe in themselves and recognize that change is possible—no matter their past or current struggles.
Dustin earned his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and Social Entrepreneurship and his Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Carson-Newman University. He has experience working in both residential and outpatient settings, supporting individuals facing mental health challenges and substance use disorders.
He currently works closely with individuals and families impacted by addiction, helping them navigate the challenges of recovery while rebuilding confidence, self-worth, and hope. Dustin is especially passionate about guiding people to understand that their trauma or past does not define them—and that they are capable of becoming stronger, healthier versions of themselves.
He also previously served as a counselor at a local middle school, where he supported adolescents through emotional, behavioral, and academic challenges.
