The presence of mental health struggles and the need for interpersonal support on your journey of self-discovery, self-care, self-love, and self-healing should not feel like a burden, but for many individuals it does. As a therapist, my goal is to meet you where you are in your mental health journey and offer you the permission, opportunity, and non-judgemental space to unapologetically process your mental health.

Accepting NEW clients NOW! In a society that values individuality, we’re often conditioned to believe we have deal with our mental health concerns alone. However, many people also avoid therapy for fear of sitting in a stuffy room with a prescriptive doctor-style therapist. That’s not me. Therapy with me isn’t stuffy or prescriptive; rather, it’s a simple conversation between two people that invites authenticity, fun, joy, sadness, cussing, laughing, and the realness of humanity.

We all face challenges. Whether it's negative thought loops, unhelpful behavior, interpersonal issues, stagnation, or feeling generally "off." In these times, what can be helpful is to have a witness to walk alongside us, ask thoughtful questions, and assist us in parsing out the meaning of life's ups and downs. Someone to tell our story to, to listen and truly see us. My name is Olivia, and I would be honored to be your witness. I approach my role as a kind and nonjudgemental mirror - reflecting meaning and helping you to clarify the blurriness.

"I'm TIRED." I hear this all the time from my clients and/or their parents. Life has gotten so busy that we are flying from one thing to another without a chance to catch our breath. Maybe you are tired of fighting with your child to get them to behave. Maybe you are tired of losing track of things and time. Maybe you are tired of wondering if you made the right choice or if you'll ever be good enough. Maybe you are tired of being haunted by trauma. Maybe you are tired of taking care of everyone else without a break for yourself. Or maybe you're just plain tired. I get it! And there's good news: therapy can help.

Going to therapy can be a tough decision to make and you might have a lot of different feelings about being here. We all have "stuff" that we are holding on to and sometimes we did not choose for that "stuff" to be there. That "stuff" comes from a variety of places throughout our lives, and may have even just arrived. Regardless of its origin, my role is to help you access the process of the healing you already have within you. I am dedicated to guiding you in exploring your potential for living a life you want to create.

I help clients move beyond any pain or obstacles that are getting in the way of being able to participate in the way they want to show up in life. Any past or more recent experiences can intrude on life and make it much harder to be the better version of yourself. I am passionate about helping individual clients and couples walk through and beyond any current challenges and resolve the past and move into the future with new possibilities and life fulfillment.

I have been practicing in the Nashville area for over 15 years. In addition to completing specialized training as a mediator, I also utilize NVC to bring skillful communication techniques into my practice, have Level II EMDR training for trauma, and have experience in assisting people in difficult relationships, addiction, and life transition. I believe each person is unique, has their own set of strengths, needs and values; I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between client and therapist.

My clients are typically high achievers who may have found extraordinary success in many areas of their lives, but who: often feel inadequate; think they may be an impostor; are sick of self-help programs; don't seem to know peace or serenity; keep looking for happiness up ahead; recognize that their experiences don't match their passions; compromise their essential truth for the sake of appearances; aren't sure if they've found their unique purpose; create survival skills that then become new problems; strain to bring authentic connection to their relationships; and suffer the mental, emotional and physical pain of burnout.

I work with individuals needing help with life transitions, relationships (family, dating, spouse) and/or those who are wanting to take a look at their relationships with substances, food, and/or money. Maybe you came from a "good" family, where your parents meant well but lacked some emotional skills that it would be helpful to talk about and get some healing so your relationship with yourself and others improves. I work with adults of all ages who are open-minded, self improvers who are eager for change. For more info check out www.megan-flores.com

My services include individual, family, and couples/marital therapy. I primarily work with adults and couples. I believe that disturbances of thought, feeling, and behavior are caused by ‘obstacles’ to healthy brain functioning.

Are you searching for a therapist who gets and affirms the effects of family dysfunction? Who embraces the powers of queerness, neurodivergence, and/or having a creative mind? My therapy practice aligns with my personal values of anti-capitalism, social justice, and living “unconventionally.”  ​I support clients with a holistic perspective so that they may find the relief they need with family conflicts, relationship issues, addiction, life transitions, meaning/purpose distress, and connection to self. My approach to therapy is different than the norm, as I believe support should reflect our authentic selves & our social realities.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist at The Briggs Institute, Inc. The therapists at the Institute are graduates of Lipscomb University's Master of Marriage and Family Therapy Program. As the only COAMFTE accredited program in Nashville, the Lipscomb MFT program has earned its fine reputation by meeting the highest academic and clinical experience standards in the country. Because we practice under the supervision of the Lipscomb MFT program core faculty, we remain connected to academia. This means our work is informed by state-of-the-art scientific research that most private practice therapists can't easily access.
