Therapists in Nashville, TN

I am trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and work with individuals, couples, and families who are dealing with anxiety, grief, depression, relational and marital stress, blended families, family conflict, and other issues. I also offer both Brainspotting and EMDR.

Trent Hughes, Ph.D. is a clinically trained psychotherapist, speaker, and teacher. "In our individual work, the central focus to learn self is the beginning to identify internal resources for personal growth and development. Our work emphasizes the true nature of self and how our mind has the powerful ability to see and create a new way of being." Through a focus on wellness, Dr. Hughes places emphasis on resources and identifying strengths which primarily reside within the individual, as well as developing skills needed to enhance satisfaction with life.

My specialty areas include trauma and PTSD (rape, child abuse, domestic violence, neglect, emotional abuse, car accidents and other accidents, combat exposure, and other violent crimes); relationship issues (couples therapy, recovering from affairs, LGBT couples, family conflict); sexuality (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning concerns, sexual performance, diverse sexual expression); gender (women's issues, men's issues, transgender issues); identity exploration (college students, multicultural populations, career changes); mood disorders (depression and anxiety); along with other areas of concern.

My focus is you and understanding how your mind works. It is challenging trying to identify with your inner light while going through the motions of life. Searching for strength, courage, happiness, and peace without a clear understanding of life purpose, can be overwhelming. Our partnership in your emotional journey will explore your soul, identify the root of your issues and navigate a plan to elevate your self worth through integrative mental health and holistic approaches. My goal is to empower you to live purposely and authentically.

I want to help you feel better about yourself and the world around you! Life can be very difficult. And depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship problems, etc. all place a heavy burden upon us and take away our joy. I want to help you rediscover your joy in life. My focus is on improving mental health and your quality of life. My virtual office is a "judgment free zone", and I want you to feel comfortable discussing anything. Your peace of mind is crucial, and I'm here to help you find positive change.

As a counselor, I truly enjoy working with adults and children to overcome obstacles and situations that may have them "stuck" in unproductive and unhealthy cycles. I approach every client with respect and listen to their story to understand them fully and collaboratively work towards their goals. I believe the healing in counseling occurs in the process rather than the details of what has occurred.I see it as an honor to walk with my clients as they increase their awareness, improve insight, and develop into the best version of themselves as possible.

Many clients come to us after feeling stuck in talk therapy. Talking about your problems is helpful, but it has limited impact. If you are ready to take your healing to the next level, please reach out! We integrate somatic and experiential therapies, such as EMDR, Brainspotting, Hypnotherapy, IFS, psychodrama, nature therapy, ketamine-assisted therapy, trauma-sensitive Yoga, Neurofeedback, and more, to go deeper, so you can truly heal from past experiences. There are no quick fixes - there is only the journey to truly know, love, and care for yourself, and our team of expert therapists is ready to take the journey with you.

We are all on our own unique journey in life. At times, we come across obstacles that get in the way of living our ideal life. Together, we will not only work to identify your unique goals and values, but also work to overcome the barriers in your life so that you can return to living a life you find meaningful and fulfilling.

I help gifted, hurting individuals and couples, often ages 30-60, experience relief from the loneliness and destructive behaviors that arise from trauma and addiction. I work with individual survivors of physical, sexual, and spiritual abuse, as well as couples in distress, moving with them through the cold shadow of death when there seems no way out, to find a way through. My clients find increasing freedom from anxiety, fear, anger, and self-hatred, and release into powerful ways of living. I help people stop running from their pain and shame and start walking in peace to make conscious positive choices.

I specialize in individual counseling for those struggling with anxiety, relationship, work, and school stress, negative thoughts, mood disorders, and LGBTQ+ concerns including gender and sexual identity. My goal is to make the therapeutic process as stress-free as possible for my clients by providing an open, welcoming environment where you can express yourself freely while we work together to meet your needs.

Hello! My name is Kimery. Do you ever feel pulled in a million directions? Struggle with daily tasks bc you lack the energy to care? Are you having a tough time just being kind to yourself? I want to help! I want to help you navigate and manage the hard stuff life throws at you and even the regular stuff that feels difficult to overcome and process.

We're all works in progress. I believe in your ability to progress toward a freer self. The clients who begin work with me aren't free--they are constrained in a number of ways: depression, anxiety, disordered eating, low self-esteem, fear of intimacy, or impulsive behaviors. I see my work with you as helping you find the way back to your true self, where feelings, thoughts, desires, and hopes are revealed and honored, instead of tyrannized and discounted, sometimes by your own self.

Confronting what life throws at us can feel overwhelming and having someone help sort through these things can be a game changer. I am committed to supporting you compassionately and without judgement. I received my master’s degree with academic distinction in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University in 2023. Before pursuing my mental health passion, I was a professional violinist, and I have a deep understanding of the rewards and risks that come with the pursuit of an intense, highly specialized career, as well as an appreciation for the amount of pressure and anxiety job performance can create.

As a therapist, I love to walk alongside you during your self discovery journey of becoming your true authentic self. And on this journey of well being, one will learn the importance of self love, self care, boundary setting, effective communication, problem solving, emotional regulation, and displaying your true authentic self. And first things first, you MUST start with your mind, body, and spirit and I will like to assist you in every goal you set for yourself in a holistic way.

When unforeseeable circumstances happen, it can be difficult to figure things out alone. Life happens, trauma happens, and sorting through emotions is not easy. With empathy and compassion, I will help you work through trauma, manage anxiety, depression & stress, and build resilience along the way. I have diverse experience in various therapeutic settings including crisis counseling, school-based therapy, and outpatient therapy. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients, and together we can work to help you achieve your life goals.

Choosing a therapist can be a difficult decision. I recognize that sharing your life story with someone you are just meeting can feel very uncomfortable. In our sessions, I will try to bring a sense of calm confidence between you and me based on trust. Trust that I use evidence-based practices… trust that I will work just as hard as you do each session… trust that I use affirmative practices… and trust that I am ready to listen.
