I’m a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with six years of experience helping adults navigate ADHD, mood disorders, anxiety, substance use concerns, and personality disorders. I trained at Vanderbilt University School of Nursing and have a background in neuroscience research, which shapes my practical, brain-based approach to care.

I believe people do best when they’re treated as whole humans—not just a diagnosis. I enjoy breaking down complex mental health concepts into clear, bite-sized explanations so patients understand why they feel the way they do and how treatment helps. My style is collaborative, direct, and supportive.

I’m comfortable working with complex or long-standing symptoms and don’t shy away from difficult cases. I also enjoy working with creatives in the Nashville community and understand the unique pressures that can come with creative work. My goal is to help patients feel empowered, informed, and supported as they move toward meaningful, sustainable change.

Lindsey Pemberton

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Chattanooga, TN


I believe meaningful change starts with feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. Many of my clients come to me feeling overwhelmed by intense emotions, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or unsure of how to move forward—and that’s okay. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy.

I work with individuals who are navigating challenges like anxiety, stress, relationship difficulties, and emotional ups and downs. If you often feel like your emotions are hard to manage or situations become overwhelming quickly, you’re not alone, and there are ways to build more balance and control.

My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself without fear of judgment, while also helping you develop the skills to better cope, communicate, and move forward with confidence. Therapy with me is not just about talking, it’s about learning practical tools and creating real, lasting change.

I get it—feeling stuck in the same old patterns, craving deeper connections, and wondering how to even begin to break free can be exhausting. If you’re anything like the people I work with (and honestly, like I once was myself), you’ve probably spent a lot of time thinking, “Something has to change... but what?” That’s where I come in.
