ADHD Therapists in Nashville, TN

I enjoy working with teens, adults, couples, and families from various backgrounds using attachment focused, experiential, somatic, mindfulness based, and other therapies to promote personal growth, healing, and rediscovery. My professional areas of interest include: trauma, eating disorders, anxiety, depression and mood disorders, substance abuse, process addictions, ADHD, codependency, relationship and intimacy issues, attachment and family of origin issues, and personality disorders. In my work with clients, I utilize a range of interventions and therapeutic techniques based on the clients' own needs and presenting problems.

I specialize in neurodiversity-affirming assessments for autism, ADHD and mental health for children and adults. Clients often come to me seeking testing for the first time or as a second opinion after feeling misunderstood by other clinicians. I strive to create a comfortable environment where you feel validated and understood. My goal is to understand more about your unique lived experience and neurodivergence, get you the right diagnosis, and help you get connected with the resources that you need.

If you find yourself on this site – you are likely looking for help. There is no problem too small or too large that counseling can’t help. Your life may feel disrupted from a new change or feel weighted by the same chronic feelings. You may feel objectively everything ‘should’ feel fine, and yet struggle to feel fulfillment. You may find yourself in a cycle of control trying to fix things on your own, only for more problems to come up. I would love to help you find what you are looking for and more! I practice telehealth only and can cover across Mississippi, Tennessee and Texas!

Hi, my name is Jodie and I’m a licensed therapist. I'm passionate about helping people heal and grow, bring joy into their lives, reach their goals and improve their relationships. I specialize in working with folks with anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorders, ADHD, ASD, OCD, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, women's and body-image issues, and LGBTQ+.

This helps my clients experience positive changes in their life as a result from their therapy experience.

My name is Chris. I believe that healing happens in safe spaces where people are allowed to be their authentic selves, maybe for the first time in their life! I specialize in working with teens & adults who have ADHD, anxiety, school or work struggles, or just figuring out how to navigate being themselves in broken systems. I am also passionate about helping men, women, and gender-nonconforming persons cultivate healthy expressions of emotions and behaviors in all facets of their lives. I am also experienced in helping people develop and maintain healthy relationships, whether that’s romantic, familial, or friendship.

My ideal clients are those seeking deeper meaning and healing in their lives.

Reaching out to a therapist can be scary, especially if you've had a bad experience. My approach is non-judgmental, individualized, and collaborative, and I strongly believe it is key to first earn the trust of my clients. My style has been developed over the nearly two decades I've worked in mental health and through the 9,000+ hours of therapy, coaching, and supervision I've offered since becoming a therapist in 2011.

When things feel off or when you are not going in a direction that feels authentic you can feel or see it. I approach therapy through a lens of strength, the strength to be vulnerable, to take ownership of your story, and to learning about yourself to act out your values with integrity. My experience as a therapist has shown me any change can evoke grief, and that acceptance when things cannot or will not change can be hard too. Individual therapy can provide support for grief, depression, isolation, and anxiety. Couples therapy can strengthen connection and dreams in your relationship. You don’t need to be alone in your journey.

Do you struggle to give yourself the credit you deserve? Does this get in the way of your relationship with yourself or others? Are you longing for a safe space to process past trauma or current stressors? I personally believe the ability to be honest about our deepest pain and the realities of life is a skill that everyone can learn once they have been given a compassionate and understanding space to practice these skills that can be so life saving and transformative. Together we can work to understand triggers, develop coping strategies, and uncover your true path to healing in order for you to foster healthier connections.

Growing up in rural Tennessee, I have seen and experienced many of the issues that our communities face and have focused my career on helping people work through those everyday problems. Potential clients for me may be experiencing symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, or Burnout. A history of Trauma or Substance Use may have you feeling stuck in the mud, or perhaps there are pieces of your identity such as ADHD, Autism, Spiritual, or Gender/Sexual identity that have posed their own set of challenges in feeling accepted in the world. Whatever you may be experiencing, it’s important to remember: you are worth the effort to create change.

Tangible support for measurable results in your life- this is my passion and calling. You'll get forward motion now, and momentum, goals and strategies that are sustainable for you. Based on *you* we custom-fit life to your unique strengths and limitations. You'll flourish and be more satisfied, armed with new skills (like decision-making) crisp new perspective and trajectory that are right for you. For a *free* 15-minute phone consult, email me.

Do you feel stuck? Maybe you feel like you’ll never get out of the same old routine no matter what you do. Or you think, “Even if I talk to someone about what’s going on, my clothes won’t get folded,” or, “My kid just won’t get off their phone. We’ve tried everything!” And, to be fair, you probably have tried everything. At least, everything that works for “everyone else”. I’m Abby. I specialize in working with people who think a little differently. Whether you’re a teen (or a parent of one), neurodivergent (ADHD, Autism, OCD, etc.), or experiencing burnout, you may have thought, “How do I get back to normal?”

I help adults who struggle with ADHD to get their lives together. This is you: A constant stream of great ideas in your mind, but you don't get things done. You're struggling with imposter syndrome, slammed by self-critical thoughts, and leave lots of things unfinished. You second-guess yourself in relationships, worried about being judged. People see you as less than you are, and worst of all, so you do. You're living way below your potential, you don't know how to change, and therapy, apps, and books haven't helped yet. You try things but get bored or forget to keep doing them, so nothing works. Does this sound like you?

Are you wondering why you or your child is struggling to learn or pay attention? I can help you figure out "why?" and "what's next?" I have assessed over 2500 individuals in public and independent schools, residential treatment facilities, a university hospital clinic, and, since 2006, my own practice. My typical client is a school-aged or college student with signs of a learning disability (dyslexia is the most common) or ADHD. I also assess the need for accommodations for school, work, or standardized tests such as the ACT, LSAT, MCAT, and board and licensure exams.
