Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker with experience working with birth to 18, young adults, families, and adults. I have a Master's in Human Development and a Master's in Social Work. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, family needs, crisis management, PTSD, and pre & postpartum needs. I have been in the clinical field for 13 years.
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 support individuals seeking healing, clarity, and empowerment as they navigate life’s most challenging moments. I work with young first‐time mothers, survivors of intimate partner abuse and sex trauma, first responders, veterans, caretakers, and professionals carrying heavy emotional loads. My approach is nurturing and strength‐based, blending therapeutic support with life‐coaching strategies that help you rebuild confidence, manage stress, and reclaim your sense of self. You deserve a safe, compassionate space to grow, and I’m here to help you move forward with purpose and resilience.

Kayla, a licensed Clinical Social Worker with a background in community mental health, recognized the profound disparities in access to mental health care within BIPOC communities. Inspired by a vision of creating a space where healing is both inclusive and affordable, she founded Helen’s Project with the belief that everyone deserves access to quality mental health support, regardless of their background or financial situation.Helen’s Project operates on the principle that culturally competent and empathetic mental health care is essential for holistic well-being. The organization collaborates with a diverse team of mental health professionals who not only possess clinical expertise but also understand the unique cultural nuances and challenges faced by the BIPOC community.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Nashville, TN
Finding postpartum therapists in Nashville starts with looking for care that fits your specific needs after pregnancy or birth. Postpartum support can include help with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity changes, pregnancy loss, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with perinatal mental health, prenatal concerns, postpartum couples counseling, or related support. A credential like PMH-C can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health.
Nashville has many therapy options, and the number of choices can make it harder to narrow your search. New parents may also need care that fits around unpredictable schedules, infant care, and physical recovery. Virtual appointments can make it easier to access a postpartum therapist from home, while in-person care may be a better fit if you prefer an office setting. Before booking, read therapist bios for details on availability, therapy style, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered.
Therapy in Nashville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway lets you search for postpartum therapists who are accepting new patients, enter your insurance details for an upfront cost estimate, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
