Therapists in Tennessee

My name is Brooke Davidson and I am passionate about working with children and adolescents and their families. I completed my training at California School of Professional Psychology in 2017. My current practice has two main areas of focus: evidence based treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Anxiety Disorders and Psychological Testing. As a concierge psychologist, I offer several therapy options including in my office, mobile therapy (I come to you), telehealth and groups.

Whether or not we ever meet, I want you to know that I respect your courage and strength. Simply by virtue of the fact that you’re reading this profile, I know that you yearn to move beyond struggle and build a life worth living. I would love to help you do that.

I believe that true mastery of ourselves is within each and every one of us. Each person is unique, meaning we all have something to offer the world. Sometimes it is a matter of getting out of your own way just to see how unique we really are. I have years of experience working with people with a wide range of challenges. We will collaboratively work to utilize your strengths and enhance your coping skills. I work with each individual in addressing their primary challenges by constructing an individual goal plan that is in accordance with conquering your biggest challenges, while becoming the best version of yourself.

I specialize in treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Anxiety, Depression, Substance Abuse, and working with couples on relationships. I work with adolescents and adults and provide therapy for people who feel like these issues are getting in the way of their goals, impacting their lives negatively, and feel stuck. My goal is to understand the obstacles that are holding you back and help you make the changes that you desire in your life. Change is hard and I'm here to provide guidance, techniques, strategies, and tools that you can use to begin making a difference in your life.

Sometimes difficult thoughts, feelings, and experiences take us away from the life we want to live. It may not seem clear how therapy can help. I provide a non-judgmental and secure space where, together, we can clarify your goals and develop a treatment plan. My approach to therapy is grounded in evidence-based clinical practices. Combining behavioral and mindfulness-based modalities, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Exposure and Response Prevention, I help clients develop insight and take action in order to live engaged, meaningful lives.

As a licensed clinical psychologist and faculty member for the International OCD Foundation, I'm proud to lead as the Founding Director of the Nashville OCD & Anxiety Treatment Center (NOATC). We provide individual, group, and family therapy for people all across the lifespan. Our specialties include the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety, panic, and OC spectrum disorders such as body dysmorphic disorder. Our approach to therapy is grounded in research-based techniques and a belief that individuals are most open to change when they feel that their unique traits are respected.

I practice counseling with the perspective that humans develop behaviors to serve some sort of purpose. As a counselor, I am here to offer guidance and support for when those behaviors are no longer necessary or are no longer serving the purpose that was intended. I strive to assist clients in developing a balance in how they both experience and express emotions, with the belief that there is no "bad" emotion. My goal is to work with clients in discovering a state of awareness of the uncertainty in life rather than a fear of it.

I welcome anyone seeking to find a safe space to explore emotional, mental, and behavioral issues that are impacting their life. If you are unsure of your goals or what direction in life to take to get there, I can help you explore your current situation and the patterns your past has in influencing you today. You do not need a game plan - just a willingness to put your toe in the water and take a chance at finding a life worth living.

The couples and individuals I work with come to therapy feeling isolated, undervalued, and unheard. If you are tired of not feeling good enough, ashamed, or angry, my hope is to help you rediscover what love means, heal your connection within yourself and each other, and create a new chapter of your story. I practice with couples and individuals from a client-focused perspective of unconditional acceptance- no matter what you bring to therapy, it has a place. I have hope that we can discover the tools together to process, heal, and journey forward finding the version of yourself that you want to be.

We all struggle with anxiety and nerves every once in a while, but if you’re experiencing anxiety or racing thoughts that makes life difficult to live or enjoy your new baby, I can help! With a focus on perinatal mood and anxiety as well as emerging adult difficulties and OCD, I’ll teach you to overcome your challenges with tangible skills and practice through my specialty training in anxiety and depression. You'll learn to reduce obsessive thinking and conquer needless worrying that may be getting in the way of enjoying your pregnancy, new baby, or life. I have a special interest working with pregnant people & fear of childbirth.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 20 years of experience as a clinician. I am based in Tennessee (primarily) but also licensed in Kentucky and Minnesota. I specialize in treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I also have experience working with other anxiety disorders and clients living with depression. I am passionate about helping clients navigate life challenges in ways that honor who they are. I am supportive of people from all walks of life, including members of the BIPOC and LGBTQ community.

Life is hard, and sometimes overwhelming, but you don't have to do it alone. Let me help you process and develop the skills you need to begin living the life you desire and deserve. I specialize with the unique culture & needs of First Responders: Police, Fire, EMS, Dispatch, Corrections, Medical personnel & families.

I am a pre-licensed psychologist who has experience providing outpatient psychotherapy across the lifespan, and I have worked in intensive outpatient settings with adolescents and adults. My specialties include the treatment of anxiety disorders (generalized, social, panic, phobias) and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). I also offer services for depression, life transitions and adjustments, emotion dysregulation, relational concerns, and parent training. My doctoral education and training were both completed at Emory University in Atlanta, GA.

Are the ups and downs of life becoming unmanageable? Anxiety, OCD, depression, and other challenges can exacerbate the typical ebbs and flows of life to what feels like a breaking point. However, even if you are at rock bottom, I believe you are a whole, unbroken human being. I believe your power rests within you, even if you are not fully aware of it yet. It is my passion and joy to empower everyone I work with to recognize their wholeness, embody their power, and live a value-oriented lifestyle.

Therapy is a place to seek out growth, understanding, and compassion toward yourself and others. And since everyone has a unique story, impacted by people and experiences both past and present, it is crucial that therapy is personalized. Whether you're working toward self-exploration, acceptance, change, or all of the above, we can find a path together. I will collaborate with you in assessing concerns and working toward growth, while providing support throughout your journey.

My passion is to offer individualized, compassionate client care using a variety of methods. I work with adults, teens, and children. My clients range in age from five years old through adulthood, and they are usually having issues with adjustments, transitions, family, and relationships. They also may struggle with anxiety, depression, OCD, or substance use issues. I offer a non-judgmental and safe, healing space. I want to help clients meet their goals and offer hope where it may be lacking.

I've worked at multiple levels of care, and I've seen OCD & anxiety at their gnarliest. OCD is not just about germs and organization. It can include debilitating mental compulsions, taboo themes, complex presentations, and so much more. Finding therapists who "get it" can be challenging. That's where I come in.

My ideal client is one who knows they need to make changes and are willing to do the work of therapy. My practice is specialized to help those with OCD, anxiety, and related disorders but I am also a gender therapist. My office is a safe space where you can be you.

You may be experiencing "stuckness" in your life, feeling caught in thought loops that have left you overwhelmed, anxious, in pain, hopeless. Yet, something brought you here – somewhere within you is an action tendency to move toward healing, growth, and connection. Whether you are dealing with anxiety, OCD, trauma, or existential struggles over identity, relationships, loss, or life transitions, together through therapy, we can tap into that healing energy already within you, reframe and make space for painful experiences, reconstruct ways of moving through the world, and create space for movement toward what matters most to you.
