Female Therapists in Davidson County, TN

As a therapist, I work with people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or looking to make some sort of change (in life, relationships, unhealthy habits or behaviors, etc.). I work primarily from a relational-cultural approach, which means that my focus is on the therapeutic relationship, authenticity, and perhaps most importantly, collaboration. Content related to the past, present, and future are each considered to be sources of valuable information, as are thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I value creativity and a sense of humor in my work with clients; your experience is yours alone and as such, your treatment will be individually tailored to your needs.

I believe every human being deserves to be seen and live in a way that brings about peace, self-love, and a positive self-image. This can be difficult when immersed in rigid cultural systems, exposed to trauma, and dealing with intense emotional pain. Extrinsic influences about gender, ethnicity, nationality, physical and mental capabilities, sexuality (and much more) can leave so many people questioning their own existence. In the face of this, daily living itself can feel like a challenge and leave a person feeling isolated and alone. My hope is to provide you with the support we all deserve in order to live as fully as possible.

Life is MESSY. It's serving chaos, stress, and curveballs left and right. And unfortunately… the messiness is probably more common than “everything going like it should.” Still, you don’t have to navigate the mess alone. If you feel lost, overwhelmed, or have no idea what to do next— let me be a partner on your path. We can work on cultivating and increasing your access to the strengths you already have inside, but may not always know how to tap into right now. I do this work because I feel passionate about supporting people as they navigate challenging life circumstances and create a life that is authentically meaningful.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and have been in practice for fifteen years. I believe that people have the capacity to change and make improvements in their lives. And, I see myself as a partner in the change process. I am someone that you can trust who will listen with compassion-free from judgment. I am easy to talk to and I will share with you my thoughts, ideas and strategies to assist you as you move towards change. I am compassionate and will treat you with respect and understanding.

Therapy for Women! Hi there, I am Shaye and I am a marriage and family therapist with 5+ years of experience supporting women in becoming their best selves. I guide my clients through actionable, goal-oriented therapy, combined with techniques including EMDR, attachment theory, and narrative therapy, in order to develop the coping skills and boundaries to heal their relationships and build confidence.

Making the choice to see a therapist is the first and often the scariest step on the journey to emotional wellness. It is also a rewarding one because eventually it can lead you to your goal of a more balanced and fulfilling life. I would like to help you achieve your goals by offering a safe, supportive and confidential environment where you can develop these tools and techniques to navigate your life’s most difficult times.

I have spent my entire professional career supporting people become their best selves. After working 25 years as a special education and inclusion specialist, I transitioned to a career in social work and have been working in the field for 12 years. I believe in self-care, wellness and the strength and resilience of all individuals. I am currently EMDR Institute Trained, and am offering EMDR, as this technique is highly effective and proven to reduce the effects of past trauma as a way to create freedom and positive beliefs towards self and others. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

We all have different parts of ourselves that show up in different ways at different times. It's often the case that what leads us to seek therapy is the feeling that some of our parts are showing up either as "too big" or overwhelming or as some sort of overreaction that we can't quite understand. My goal as a therapist is to help set the conditions we all need in order to better understand the different ways we show up in the world, and why. Anxiety, PTSD, depression and other trauma-related symptoms can improve in incredible ways when we take the time to understand why.

Living with a mental health challenge like anxiety, depression, OCD, or an eating disorder can feel like carrying a boulder on your back 24/7. Of course, none of us would choose that— so it can be strange to think that it’s possible to choose something different through engaging in therapy. But the magic of neuroplasticity and therapeutic change can absolutely support you in finally setting that boulder down (or… maybe we can smash it into a million pieces together. )

Hey there! I'm Abby, and I'm here to support you on your journey. Whether you're navigating ADHD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, or just life's ups and downs, you're in the right place. My goal is to work together to tap into your strengths. Ultimately, I want to see you thrive! I work with a wide variety of clients ranging from teens to established individuals. I provide a relaxed, collaborative therapy experience, focusing on what works for you. Welcome to a space where your experiences are not only valued but also celebrated.

Grief and heartbreak are part of life, but right now, you might be feeling like it's all too much to bear. You don't have to figure it all out on your own. I can help. Perhaps you or someone close to you is coping with a terminal illness or you're struggling after a loved one's death. Maybe you are experiencing another heartbreak, perhaps caused by a relationship or a trauma. Or, maybe you are struggling to find ways to love and accept yourself in a world that makes you feel less than.

My passion in this work is to help those who struggle to find their voice and authentic self due to obstacles like trauma, anxiety, grief, OCD, low self-esteem, etc. These obstacles I named often become blinders and part of the identity as one encounters life transitions and forming relationships with others. My job is to sit with, listen to, and help guide him/her back to their true self where they can feel safe and at home.

As we grow and evolve in this imperfect world, we may become disconnected from who we are and those around us. Life can be messy and overwhelming, and it can also be meaningful and full of hope. If you’re looking for a place to show up with all your humanness, this is the place.

I am thrilled to work with clients of any age and background, and I especially love getting to work with individuals who no longer want to live with their past defining their present. Let's work together to help you reach your goals and live the life you were created to live!

You're unsettled, overwhelmed, burned out. Worst-case scenarios and defeating thoughts stop you from finding peace, and it seems like panic is becoming the norm. You avoid, distract, or argue with yourself to get some quiet, only for the process to start right back up, or worsen. You wonder, "Why can't I stop...(insert thoughts/emotions)? How come...(insert standard solution) isn't working? What's WRONG with me?!" You want to be the calm, capable, and in-control person you envision, you're just not sure where to start. But, healing IS possible and it's nearer than it seems. You've already taken the first step by considering therapy!

I work with those suffering from anxiety, depression, substance abuse/addiction, bipolar disorder, obsessive compulsive disorders, personality disorders, relationship struggles, and life changes. I also help clients who are struggling with a lack of confidence, negative self-talk and thoughts, and the feeling of not being good enough or not doing enough.

Life can come with many unexpected obstacles which can cause some overwhelming experiences. Often times, our instinct is to retreat when faced with negative experiences or bury them deep inside. Some of us can feel like if we seek help, we will be a burden to others which makes sitting with that feeling even more difficult. I understand the importance of having someone to simply be a source of healing and support through difficult times and I'm here to serve clients on a journey towards restoration and relief.

I am a psychologist who specializes in helping people achieve their own definition of a healthier life in a supportive environment. At some point, many people feel sad, anxious, or stuck on their paths in life. My role as a therapist is to partner in helping you remove the roadblocks in your path and continue on your journey to experience a fuller sense of life. Individual, couples, and/or family therapy can help identify ways of improving your relationships, emotional health, and other areas of you life.

Have you been finding it difficult to cope with overwhelming emotions? Have you been feeling disconnected from yourself and those around you? Are you experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, and/or self-esteem issues? Do you find yourself held back by perfectionism, people-pleasing tendencies, and an overall tumultuous relationship with yourself? Do you have a history of relational hurts and trauma that you are trying to navigate the impacts of and process? I work with individuals who are looking to work through these concerns and the impacts of challenging life experiences and circumstances.
