Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Therapists in Nashville, TN

Do you ever feel like your emotions are imbalanced, and you can't put your finger on why or how to manage them? Sometimes, when our feelings are unpredictable, it can lead to added stress, panic attacks, and personal reactions that may catch us off guard. Trauma, anxiety, and significant life changes, like a move or new job, can affect the way we respond in sensitive circumstances. You may want to discover the why, or you may just want to figure out a solution to regulate the turbulence and navigate the uncertainty.

As a psychologist and nurse, I bring a unique understanding to therapy with a focus on both biological and psychological factors that impact mood and behavioral patterns. I believe in a collaborative and holistic approach in my work to help each client achieve personal life goals that are generally aimed at improving health and wellness, managing stress, and improving relationships.

At White House Sport Psychology we specialize in sports performance, sport psychology and mental health for athletes. We help athletes overcome challenges in and out of sport (i.e. mental blocks, performance anxiety, perfectionism, personal issues, etc). We'll help you focus on what is most important to you and teach you how to overcome the barriers that get in your way (e.g. stress, anxiety, relationships, etc.). This will include helping you gain a deeper understanding of your concerns as well as teaching you specific skills and strategies you can use to manage the challenges you face, and ultimately move toward your goals.

Have you started to notice problems with your memory or attention as you've grown older? Do you increasingly find yourself unable to remember people’s names, misplacing items, forgetting important appointments/work tasks, or becoming lost while driving? If so, you may have started to worry that you have dementia and wonder if there is anything you can do about it. I can help answer these kinds of critical questions about your brain health. I specialize in helping middle-aged and older adult patients understand the cognitive changes their brains are going through, as well as how to promote healthy aging and long-term brain integrity.

High quality, holistic therapy has never been more needed, more in demand, and more challenging to secure. Maybe you've tried various forms of therapy without seeing lasting results. Maybe you've been frustrated and discouraged by trying to get off of countless waitlists. Maybe you have never divulged what's going on inside of you to another person. There is a better way to nurture your nervous system, and it's accessible in a matter of hours. Using the body's built-in reset network, we work together to build new pathways in the brain and new experiences in the body that allow for the old stuff to release and new things to begin.

I'm here to help and walk with you on your path to growth! My work as a therapist is grounded in the belief that everyone has the power to conquer challenges and grow as a person with the right tools and guidance. Therapy provides a unique opportunity to explore new parts of yourself, challenge old beliefs, and develop new ways of healing. I have over 11 years experience working as a therapist with a speciality in trauma and anxiety. Helping you reach your personal goals is my priority.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, but taking that first step is crucial. I understand how challenging it is to share your struggles with someone new, which is why I prioritize creating a culturally sensitive, authentic, and non-judgmental environment specifically for women and BIPOC clients. Many of my clients face issues such as anxiety, depression, stress management, racial stress and trauma, self-esteem challenges, self-criticism, and imposter syndrome. These struggles can be particularly intense for individuals in demanding professional roles and lead to intense feelings and unwanted behaviors.

I provide both neuropsychological assessment and specialized psychotherapy services for adult and geriatric clients. Individuals referred for neuropsychological assessment are typically evaluated for cognitive or thinking difficulties related to neurological conditions (dementia, head injury, multiple sclerosis, seizure disorders, etc.), medical conditions (HIV, autoimmune disorders, cancer, pre/post surgical procedures), and psychological conditions such as depression and anxiety. My assessment practice is complimented by structured therapy including cognitive rehabilitation to compensate for cognitive weaknesses.
