Welcome to “Artists & Athletes” at Southeast Psych Nashville

We serve artists and professional and collegiate-level athletes by providing therapy and counseling to help navigate the specific challenges they face, including such issues as coping with stress, dealing with anxiety or depression, managing substance use or other addictions, processing trauma and loss, navigating family or professional conflicts, and other concerns.

Understanding Your World and Your Place In It

Our seasoned therapists have a wealth of experience working with artists, athletes, their families, and those who support them. We understand the exclusive stressors and pressures of performing at high levels, whether on stage or in the field. Our team is acutely aware of the emotional toll that your profession can take, from performance anxiety and fear of failure to struggles with self-esteem and maintaining work-life balance.

Flexible, Accessible, and Confidential

We understand that your world never stops moving – and neither do you. That’s why we’re proud to offer flexible services that can accommodate your busy and unique lifestyle. In addition, our therapists are adept at providing support while you’re back in town in the Nashville-Brentwood-Franklin area or on the road, ensuring that your mental health doesn’t have to take a backseat to your career.

Confidentiality is a cornerstone of our practice. We maintain the highest level of discretion to ensure your privacy. Our services are conducted with the utmost confidentiality, and our therapists are committed to fostering a safe, secure space where you can tackle the challenges you are facing.

Every member of our “Artists & Athletes” program is a highly skilled therapist who profoundly understands the unique pressures and challenges that professional artists and athletes face.
