Welcome — I’m glad you’re here!
I am a licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience specializing in nature-informed therapy and helping individuals transform grief into growth. I believe every person is inherently precious and worthy of deep care. I would consider it a privilege to walk alongside you, offering support and perspective in the internal and external challenges that lead you to pursue therapy at this time.
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
Hello, I'm Angela and my practice is called Mindful Healing. I have been a nurse for thirty four years and Practitioner for the last 6. I graduated with honors from Southern Adventist University with my Masters in Psychiatric care. I started my career helping first responders deal with PTSD. I treat depression and anxiety, along with ADHD and much more. I have extensive experience in addictions of all types. I care about my patients, and you will not be just a number if you choose to have me as your provider.
Hi, I'm Veronica—a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families through life’s most difficult challenges. My work has included individual therapy, group counseling, crisis intervention, and reentry support for justice-involved individuals. I have a special passion for helping people facing major transitions, including recovery from addiction, adjusting to life after incarceration, or healing from trauma.
I love working with people and helping them "grow" through the things of life that they "go" through. A quote that I love to share with clients and live by personally is to remember not to focus on your purpose but to live your life purposely. As a military social worker my background is specific to first responders, but most importantly individuals that are learning their new "normal" after traumatic life events that have unexpectedly shaped them.
Wife. Mother. Therapist. Navigator. I value my authentic self and believe we all can trace life’s imprints to dive into the core of who we are versus what life has conditioned us to be. I hone in on my abilities to help all you navigators explore whichever capacities it is that you seek to grow through, heal from, or transition into. You are not just another name, but a whole light. We are all perfectly imperfect. I truly believe you can become stronger through a healthier relationship with yourself and others when equipped with the proper navigational tools.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Nashville, TN
Searching for therapists in Nashville starts with finding someone whose training matches what you want support with. Nashville has a broad mental health community across areas like East Nashville, Midtown, Green Hills, and nearby suburbs, so it helps to narrow your options by need first. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare Nashville therapists, look for specialties, therapy approaches, and population experience that fit your goals, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples counseling.
In a major metro area like Nashville, having many options can make the search feel harder to sort through. Practical factors can help you decide which therapist is a usable match. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions near your home, work, or campus, or virtual appointments that fit more easily into your schedule. You can also compare appointment availability, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, free phone consultation options, and session style. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how each therapist communicates, what they focus on, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Nashville can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between in-person and virtual appointments. You can enter your insurance details on Headway to confirm coverage available in Nashville. You can browse therapists, review bios, 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.
