I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with six years of experience helping adults navigate ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety, substance use concerns, and personality disorders. I trained at Vanderbilt University School of Nursing and have a background in neuroscience research, which shapes my practical, brain-based approach to care.
I believe people do best when they’re treated as whole humans—not just a diagnosis. I enjoy breaking down complex mental health concepts into clear, bite-sized explanations so patients understand why they feel the way they do and how treatment helps. My style is collaborative, direct, and supportive.
I’m comfortable working with complex or long-standing symptoms and don’t shy away from difficult cases. I also enjoy working with creatives in the Nashville community and understand the unique pressures that can come with creative work. My goal is to help patients feel empowered, informed, and supported as they move toward meaningful, sustainable change.
I’m a dual certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who provides thoughtful, individualized medication management for anxiety, depression, and mood-related concerns. I understand how overwhelming it can feel when your mind isn’t working the way you want it to. I specialize in mood disorders, ADHD, addiction, anxiety and PTSD across the lifespan
For over eight years, I have provided individual and group therapy to clients addressing problematic sexual behaviors and intimacy issues. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and OR SOTB Certified Clinical Sex Offense Therapist, I deliver client-centered therapy, encompassing a broad spectrum of mental health challenges, with a specialization in sexual dysfunction and antisocial behaviors.
My Philosophy On Healing
” I will not rescue you.
For you are not powerless.
I will not fix you.
For you are not broken.
I will not heal you.
For I see you, in your wholeness.
I will walk with you through the darkness as you remember your light.”
-Sheree Bliss Tilsley.

Hi, my name is Greg and I provide thoughtful, individualized psychotherapy and medication management rooted in trust, clinical experience, and genuine human connection. My approach is intentional and collaborative—taking the time to understand each person’s history, goals, and needs before making or adjusting treatment decisions. I support care through both in-office and telehealth visits and serve as a resource by connecting patients to trusted mental health providers when additional support is needed. Above all, I believe mental health is a lifelong pursuit and would love to be a part of your journey.
