Therapists in East Nashville, Nashville, TN

Therapy is about connection. I provide a holistic, client-centered, relational approach. There comes a time when help is needed from a professional to cope with life’s ups and downs and ongoing challenges. Good therapy supports integrating your life experiences. It can help you to make sense of the world again after traumatic or stressful events and gives you the skills to move forward in a healthier and happier way. Therapy is different than other relationships you may have in your life because it is completely focused on You. The ultimate purpose of psychotherapy is to help an individual find a life with purpose and meaning.

Sensitive, empathic (maybe even a little witchy..), and tired of getting mixed up with narcissists after all your inner work? You might even feel that you're not getting anywhere with your current or past therapy. I specialize in working with women who've already done some therapy and who are now ready to get to the root cause of complex trauma and codependency-based relationship patterns (we start by mapping your nervous system!). You want to be able to trust yourself in relationships, feel secure within yourself, and have relationships that ADD to your life, dreams, and inner magic. I'd love to chat with you!

Do you find yourself ruminating over the past and feeling embarrassed, anxious, or depressed for “not being over it"? Perhaps you learned to compartmentalize your emotions to cope. I work with my clients to hone their emotional awareness and create space to meet, understand, and process parts of their lives that have been put aside to survive.

“The hardest part about the gym, is getting there.” And you have done that! I am excited that you have taken the first step to overcome your emotional challenges and life stressors. Making the choice to begin therapy is not always an easy one. My goal is to help you feel more comfortable about that decision. Sometimes you just need someone to assist you with life changes, challenges, and handling the stress of it all.

I work with kids, adolescents, and adults who feel stuck; they are experiencing symptoms such as anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and disordered eating. Many have carried the weight of traumatic experiences for as long as they can remember. Many feel that they spend excess time worrying about food and their bodies and find it hard to engage fully in their lives. They continue to feel out of control of their relationships, their bodies, and their emotions. They feel numb and isolated on the surface, and deep down feel hurt and helpless.

What's standing in the way of you finding your best path? I believe you have everything you need to reach your full potential, sometimes it’s just hard knowing where to start. Let me help you sort though everything and get back on track. People seek counseling for a variety of reasons. Whatever the reason that brings you through the door, I commit to walking with you throughout the healing process to achieve inner growth and peace. I believe that therapy should be individualized for each client. After an initial intake appointment, counseling services will be formulated to meet your specific needs.

I see therapy as the process of realizing that we have more choices than we thought we did. I am guided by the belief that every human being is worthy and capable of change, and that connection is the epicenter of human healing. As such, I strive to create a strong therapeutic relationship based on trust, support and acceptance. It takes bravery to seek help, and I feel honored to walk alongside my clients. I recognize the validity of all gender identities and expressions, sexual orientations, races and religions and aim to create relationships/spaces with my clients in which they feel free and safe to be themselves.

Are you struggling to find joy in the present moment? Do you notice over-reactivity in certain circumstances that feels impossible to control? Are you aware of your strengths but at times having trouble believing in them? I work with both couples and individuals to help them find relief from anxiety, depression, low self-worth and relationship conflict or disconnect. With compassion and care, I will help draw our your strengths, help you better understand your value, and connect more deeply with others. If you have a longing for change but don't know how to get there, I would love to help. You don't have to do this all on your own.

I help clients struggling with anxiety, depression, relationships, PTSD/trauma, motivation & life adjustments. It is not uncommon to find ourselves stuck or overwhelmed. We've often learned to neglect ourselves, our needs, and feel unable to call upon others when we need help. Many of us battle with feelings of shame and speak to ourselves in a critical voice. I believe this often comes from a place of wounding from our past that drives us further away from our true, authentic self. When we can learn how to care for ourselves in the way we needed in the past, we can shift our beliefs of ourselves and who we are in relation to others

So often do I hear women and girls searching for a new or more active approach to therapy, where they can learn skills and effectively meet their goals. My approach to therapy is just that. I help women and girls unlock their true potential in therapy by providing a space that is filled with energy, authenticity, and hands-on work. The work I do is dynamic and active, as I believe tangible resources are key to effective therapeutic work. My goal is to create a relatable and modern approach to therapy as we work to break negative patterns, gain self-awareness, and learn new ways to cope with past events and current stresses.

Many of us struggle with defenses and behaviors we have developed in order to escape the pain of our lives, whether it be in the form of substances, food, sex/relationships, work, perfectionism, dissociation, or something else, and in our understandable attempts to avoid this pain we become disconnected from our authentic self and body in the process. As a result, we can often wind up creating even more suffering for ourselves and begin to not only numb the pain, but the joys as well.

You are here because you've realized that life as it is isn't working for you. I help with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, cultural challenges and more. I prioritize creating a safe space where people feel understood, valued, and supported in exploring and being their authentic selves, and I serve as a non-judgmental fellow human who can walk beside you (even when feelings are icky). My therapy style is warm and collaborative, with a sprinkle of humor. It's easy to feel overwhelmed because you don't know where to start. I can shed light on strengths that may be hard for you to see and help you get moving towards change.

Life is full of twists and turns, filled with traumas and hardships that we cannot predict or control. We develop coping mechanisms to survive, to protect ourselves from pain and turmoil. These coping mechanisms may have served you well in the past, but now they may be holding you back, causing more harm than good. Through therapy, we can unearth these defense mechanisms and unravel the wounds that lie beneath. Traumas can build up over time, clouding our vision. By healing these wounds, you can begin to see yourself and the world more clearly, and shed the layers of protection that no longer serve you.

Welcome and thanks for checking out my profile. I'm Scott. Perhaps you’re here because your inner life has become too chaotic and you’re looking for a way to find peace.

Wherever you find yourself, I’ll meet you there. I’m sure of this; it is possible to access the wonder and creative energy of youth and move into new way of being in life.

When you cut a tree down and look at the growth rings added every year, you can see the way fire, water, wind, and people have impacted its life each year. I believe that people are no different. Our environment shapes us, and nevertheless we grow. Some years are harder than others, but even within the hard years, growth takes place.
