Adults Therapists in Nashville, TN

I offer EMDR therapy and EMDR Intensives. I use a holistic body-mind approach that allows you to restore yourself from what has caused you pain and discomfort.

Other specialties include PTSD, anxiety, bipolar disorder, depressive disorder, and performance enhancement.

I'm Jason Daniels, a licensed psychotherapist with a private practice in Nashville, Tennessee. I provide psychotherapy for individuals, couples, and families struggling with a wide variety of life challenges. I have over a decade of experience partnering with adults and adolescents to find solutions to living their lives more successfully and meaningfully. I create a safe and supportive environment in which you can talk about your situation comfortably and confidentially. Through the therapy process, we can learn to manage stress, cultivate mindfulness, and move towards living a more fulfilling life.

Thank you for your interest in my practice. Choosing the right therapist for you or one of your loved ones is an important decision. In fact, research has demonstrated that which therapist you work with matters far more than the techniques or approach he or she employs. I enjoy working with adults and adolescents who are dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship issues, substance abuse, eating disorders, grief/loss, as well as general life difficulties. I am grateful for the opportunity to help the people I work with.

When we feel consistently stuck, unheard, or confused, it can be difficult to live in our own skin. Our old coping skills may not work anymore, and we find ourselves needing more tools and support to move forward. I work with clients to cultivate goals that help you move closer to your healthiest and most authentic self. I utilize an integrative approach including cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and expressive arts to support you as you empower yourself.

Understanding that for most, making the decision to enter therapy is a difficult step, it is essential that I not only connect and relate, but I provide a degree of noticeable relief or insight within the first session. This is especially true with adolescents, young adults and men, who tend to be resistant at the onset of the therapy process. I meet my clients where they are at, build upon their strengths to address their struggles, establish mutually agreed upon goals, and become an advocate for their overall growth and well-being. I am affirming, but direct in my approach.

The Know You Project is a career consulting service aimed at helping people discover more about who they are, how they're wired, their strength/passion areas, and what career path might be best suited for them. We work with clients in high school considering what do to once they graduate, young adults who aren't enjoying their current position, established professionals looking to make a change, as well as those looking to get back into the workforce after time away for any reason (ex. mothers returning to work). We offer both clarity on vision, as well as personalized job-hunt tools that make clients stand out during the search

**Now Accepting New Clients** I see adults and adolescents who typically present with anxiety and/or depression. If I had to name just one specialty, it would be anxiety. Most people suffer some form of it at some point in their lives. When left untreated, it can lead to more severe symptoms and a whole host of diagnoses. I practice primarily Cognitive Behavioral techniques. I will talk to you about your beliefs, expectations, and how you experience the world. I'll teach you to be more accepting of yourself, so you can stop judging and reacting from created stories. I will also help you improve foundational behaviors.

I believe that each person is uniquely different with their own set of genetic makeup. Everyone has the potential to change and can do so with the right motivation. My office is a warm, caring, and non-judgmental place where clients begin to create better lives for themselves; whether it is by taking a risk, accepting a particular dilemma, or gaining confidence or understanding. It is my job to help clients learn to identify their goals, and to provide support and guidance in working towards those goals.

How did I get here?" Consider me a light on your path that is there to help you find the way to the life you deserve to live. Teens - Tired of no one understanding? Feel like talking with some lady isn't going to do anything anyway? Need someone to trust? Consider me someone willing to learn to speak your language because I know how much you're hoping for someone to finally listen. There is hope. Together we can find the way.

My mission is to create a safe and inviting space for my clients where they can feel open to exploring their inner and outer worlds.
