Dual Diagnosis Therapists in Nashville, TN

Hi! My name is Amanda Finn. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have about 10 years of experience in mental health. My approach to therapy is meeting people where they are at and helping them reach the goals, they set for themselves. I have experience with and am comfortable working with the following: trauma, suicidal thoughts/gestures, anger, anxiety, depression, mental health crisis, psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, substance use, grief and loss, behavioral issues, and personality disorders.

Consider this - You are not required to set yourself on fire to keep other people warm. Have you been keeping others warm for far too long at the expense of yourself? Is it finally time to put YOU first? Whether you are struggling with things that have happened in your past, seek to have more fulfilling and lasting relationships, or simply just want to feel better than you did yesterday, I would be honored to walk beside you. I like to think of going to therapy as a scheduled time in your week to invest in yourself – it doesn’t mean that something is wrong with you. Rather, coming to therapy means something is RIGHT with you.

I recognize that the journey that brought you to therapy may not have been an easy one. I work to assist you in your self-exploration, learning, and growth by creating a safe, nurturing, respectful, yet challenging environment. I prioritize your autonomy and personal responsibility throughout the healing process.

Hi, my name is Mary, I’m a licensed Clinical Social Worker in Tennessee working with clients through telehealth services. Life should be about “doing more of what makes you happy”. I’m here to help you to a path of healing, empowerment, and getting back to being you. I’ve worked over 15 plus years helping individuals regain a sense of awareness in their life, with practical life strategies, with emphasis on the body and mind.

The ups and downs of life can be tough for us all. We strive every day to find a little more light, however, sometimes just as we are starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel, an unexpected new challenge falls in our path. This can feel as if there is no way out. Counseling offers an avenue to work together to brighten this path. The experiences in our past impact the way we live our life today, how we cope with these challenges, and how we see our future. Finding the insight, self-knowledge and inner strength for better coping with our depression, anxiety, or uncertainty is the key to living our most fulfilling lives.

I believe a happier world starts with calm, well-adjusted people. So I help parents and adults who are struggling to remain calm and act effectively, due to their own painful childhoods, go from stressed and overwhelmed to feeling calm and in-control; spending more confident, happy times with their children through relatable, supportive, one-on-one, trauma-focused therapy sessions. People who benefit from my services tend to be millennials who have made as much progress as they can on their own and who are now motivated to embark on this journey of recovery.
