LGBT therapists in Nashville, TN

Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Therapist with 3 years of experience helping adults and families navigate life's challenges. I earned my degree from Lipscomb University and am licensed in Tennessee.

My clinical background includes working in an eating disorder residential facility as well as a healthcare clinic supporting clients in addiction recovery. These experiences have given me a deep understanding of complex emotional and behavioral challenges and the courage it takes to seek help.

Whether you are struggling with everyday stress, relationship difficulties, trauma, or deeper mental health concerns, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and growth. I would love the opportunity to support you — please don't hesitate to reach out!

As a Black, queer, neurodivergent clinician, I know I have a unique perspective when it comes to mental health and wellbeing. If you are looking for someone different, someone who will really listen to your concerns, and help you achieve your goals, don't look further. I am an integrative psychiatric provider, and I believe that mental health is a lot more than medications, but medications can also help! I am inclusive and enjoy working with a diverse group of individuals that struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, autism, and ADHD. I also enjoy working with "higher functioning" folx and professionals. *I see clients ages 16 -65 years old.*

Hi, I’m Mary! I believe that therapy should be a safe place to explore your story, gain deeper self understanding, and learn ways to cope better with the hard things in life. I hope to create a fun and collaborative environment that feels inclusive and inviting.

When i'm not seeing clients I enjoy writing and playing music around Nashville, teaching Pure Barre, and hosting my dating podcast. I believe that therapy should incorporate healing of the mind, body, and spirit. I can’t wait to meet you!

Hi, I’m Maddy Egner, LPC-MHSP. I believe therapy works best when you feel truly seen, heard, and understood. My approach is person-centered, meaning I meet you where you are and tailor treatment to your unique needs and goals. I also believe humor can be healing — even in the midst of hard things — and I strive to create a space that feels both safe and authentic. A little laughter and (when appropriate) dark humor can really help us shift, take action, and grow.

I earned my degree from West Texas A&M University and am licensed as a Licensed Professional Counselor – Mental Health Service Provider in Tennessee. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply ready for growth, I would be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi there! I’m Jared, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in the intersection of high-performance or achievement and authentic identity.

I provide a supportive, objective space to help you navigate these pressures. You are the expert on your life; my role is to provide the clinical strategy and partnership to help you reclaim your peace and thrive—both personally and professionally. I believe fundamentally that you already have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you - and they may not be limited to the first ones that come to mind.
