Religious Trauma Therapy in Nashville
In-person at my Mt. Juliet office, or by telehealth across Tennessee.
Tennessee is one of the most religiously concentrated states in the country. The kind of religion many of us grew up with here — and the kind of religious harm that produces — has its own specific shape. Therapy with a specialist who knows that landscape can make a difference.
Two Ways to Meet
Most Tennessee clients pick one and stick with it; some alternate based on the week.

1550 North Mount Juliet Road

Available for residents of Tennessee, South Carolina, and Florida. Saves the drive — especially for clients in Memphis, Knoxville, Chattanooga, or anywhere outside the immediate Nashville area.
Why Nashville-Area Therapy for Religious Trauma Specifically
If you grew up here, the religious landscape you came out of probably included some specific dynamics: purity culture, hierarchical gender teaching, hell theology, strong missionary culture, denominational politics, and the deeply intertwined community structures of Southern Baptist, evangelical, Pentecostal, fundamentalist, reformed, or non-denominational churches.
The cost of leaving — or even quietly questioning — is often higher here than in more religiously diverse regions. Family members may still be in the same church. Your professional network might overlap with your former community. The geography itself can feel saturated with reminders.
Working with someone who already understands all of that means you don't have to spend your sessions explaining what “biblical womanhood” meant in your house, or what it cost to stop attending. We can get right to the actual work.
