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!

Therapist

Many people come to therapy because something in their relationships isn’t working—conflict that keeps repeating, difficulty feeling close, or a sense of disconnection from themselves or others. Beneath these patterns, there is often something deeper: old wounds, protective strategies, and unmet longings that continue to shape how we show up in the present.

Supporting Neurodiverse Minds with Compassion, Expertise, and Evidence-Based Care

I specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of neurodiverse teens, young adults, and adults. My practice is dedicated to helping individuals better understand themselves and thrive in a world that often isn’t designed for how they think, feel, or process information.

Whether you or your loved one is navigating Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, OCD, Bipolar Disorder, or co-occurring challenges such as anxiety, mood, or behavioral disorders, I provide comprehensive evaluations and personalized treatment designed to meet your unique needs.

My goal is to create a space where clients feel understood, empowered, and equipped with tools that work in their real lives. If you're seeking compassionate, research-driven support from a clinician who understands neurodiversity—not just clinically, but humanly—I invite you to book a session.

Let’s work together to uncover your strengths and build the skills for a more confident, connected, and fulfilling life.

Frequently asked questions

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a OCD Therapist in Nashville, TN

Finding OCD therapists in Nashville starts with looking for care that matches how OCD is commonly supported. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a widely used therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists have specific training in it. If you’re looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, avoidance, or related stress, review therapist bios for OCD experience, ERP training, and approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy.

Nashville has many mental health care options, which can make it harder to tell whether a therapist is a strong fit for OCD-specific support. Some therapists list OCD as an area of familiarity, while others describe direct experience with ERP or anxiety and OCD therapy. That difference can matter when you compare options. Also consider appointment availability, whether virtual or in-person sessions fit your schedule, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles can help you understand how a therapist structures sessions and what kinds of concerns they work with most often.

Therapy in Nashville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their specialties and bios, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. You can compare virtual and in-person options, check insurance fit, and book directly when you’re ready.
