Therapists for college students near Nashville, TN

College can be both exciting and overwhelming — especially when you’re trying to figure out who you are and where you belong. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who provides LGBTQIA+ affirming, trauma-informed therapy to students navigating anxiety, identity exploration, relationships, and self-worth. My goal is to create a space where you can breathe, feel understood, and begin to build confidence in your authentic self. Whether you’re questioning your identity, coping with academic stress, or struggling to feel “enough,” you don’t have to do it alone. Therapy is a place to slow down, reconnect, and grow.

Would you like to recognize the positive things in your life and enjoy them without shame, self doubt or anxiety? Are you in recovery from abuse or other traumatic events or chronic stress?

It is difficult to reach out for help but we all need it at times. My office will be a safe place for you to share your feelings and learn to manage life mindfully with grace and strength.

During our sessions together, I will support you in exploring the many parts of you and how they came to be. I will work with you to identify the negative messages connected to these parts of you. We will form a relationship with these parts and create a safe place for all of you to be seen, heard, and understood. In this safe place, you will heal yourself.

We all enjoy the excitement of learning and living a fulfilled life. However, we often don’t take the time we need to take care of ourselves. For many people, this fast pace lifestyle leads to stress in different parts of our lives (careers, financial crises, children, spouses and parents) and can begin to spiral out of control and cause real stress. This can lead to anxiety, depression, addictions, anger and other painful challenges. Allan J. Katz will help you successfully understand and master the ways in which different aspects of your life interact and affect emotional health. From sex addiction counseling, stress management and couples therapy, you will discover new ways to reduce anxiety and depression, and improve the intimacy in your relationship.

In life, we all experience the tension of joy and pain, mountain tops and valleys. As human beings, built for relationship, we need others alongside us in that journey. Sometimes we need a little extra professional help to walk through particularly painful or confusing seasons. I would love to partner with you if you find yourself in one of these seasons, or if you just need some support along the way. You don't have to go it alone, there is always hope. If you find yourself in a place that feels stuck or hope feels difficult to find, feel free to reach out to me- I'd love to connect with you and talk about what you are needing, and how I can help!

Whether you are seeking counseling for marriage or family issues, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, or any number of other life issues, we are here to help. We pride ourselves on being empathetic and respectful of each individual's condition, attentive to the individual's personal needs, and culturally aware of the different values, traditions, lifestyles, and expectations of each person.

Everyone has a story. I am a person-centered licensed professional counselor who believes in collaborative work with the client. I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) as well as solution focused therapy to help my clients reach their personal goals. I also utilize existential counseling, and multicultural counseling. In addition to seeing clients in-person in Knoxville, I am also available online to all adult residents of TN for private pay. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort between the therapist and client. While I am a skilled and trained professional, I am not an expert of you or your life. You have lived unique moments that define who you are. My role is to provide you with the necessary tools to help you cope with difficulties. My role is also to help you make sense of your life, help you identify your feelings, and help you become better at expressing yourself with others. Whatever it is you are struggling with, collaboration between therapist and client is key to helping you find peace and resolution.

I love working with people who think they may have lost the plot. Who wonder if their symptoms may be a natural reaction to our society and our utter disconnection....from everything. I see you, and I get it. I think there is more to a life well-lived than mainstream notions of success. Come explore your life through values exploration and honest self-assessment, whether short or long-term. Welcoming and affirming for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC. I have an eclectic approach, which is a fancy way of saying that I don't rely on any one way of approaching curiosities. But my starting point is always from a place of your strengths, the things you are doing well, and your unique interests/wants/needs. I trend toward elements from Acceptance and Commitment, Positive Psychology, Existentialism, Brief Solution- Focused, Motivational Interviewing, Behavioral Activation, Radical Acceptance, and Mindfulness. I am progressive in my politics, non-religious, and I believe that cursing is a valid form of self-expression. Humor is a big part of how I communicate and I believe it can get us through a lot of things. Despite being a middle-aged white woman who grew up in the south, you will find no bigoted mindset here. I will never pretend to understand the totality of your experience, but I do promise to see you, hear you, and respect you, while being mindful of the systemic, familial, and cultural issues that may be impacting you. I have stopped taking insurance because of all the barriers it creates from its medical model of viewing functionality and need. I know this creates a financial barrier for some, but I believe that until the system changes, its more of a detriment overall. But lets check those out-of-network benefits and see what we can squeeze out of the insurance company for you :)
