Top addiction therapists in Downtown Nashville, Nashville.

Clients working with me on addiction will find a supportive, respectful space to explore their relationship with substances without shame or judgment. I use a harm reduction approach, meaning we’ll focus on reducing risks and making safer, healthier choices based on your goals—whether that’s moderation, abstinence, or somewhere in between. Together, we’ll build insight, strengthen coping skills, and work toward lasting change that supports your values, well-being, and long-term recovery. Referrals will be made to higher levels of care as needed.

Breaking free from addiction can be a challenging journey, but you don't have to do it alone. In therapy, we'll address the complex factors underlying your addiction and develop a personalized treatment plan for your recovery. I'll provide support, understanding, and accountability as you navigate the path to sobriety. Together, we'll work on building resilience, coping skills, and a support network to sustain your progress. With a compassionate and non-judgmental approach, I'll help you find the strength to reclaim control over your life and embark on a healthier, fulfilling journey towards sobriety.

My clients find a refreshing approach to such a difficult issue. While addictions can and do destroy many lives, with wisdom the roots of the addiction can be exposed as a longing for something good--e.g., peace, ecstasy, or relief from suffering. Clients who are willing to explore the realities of their souls regarding what is behind their addiction can gain a whole new perspective and freedom to live above the life controlling issues they have been defeated by again and again.

Alcohol, drugs, sex, pornography, gambling, food, work, shopping, you name it and it can become an addiction. You have tried to stop the addiction on your own. You have attempted to quit gradually or even “cold turkey” and nothing seems to work. One day you seem to be doing well, you feel as if you have the addiction under control and the next day the cravings are so strong you are not sure you can last one more minute. Recovery is possible! Let’s walk that path of recovery together.
