Empathetic and effective therapy for adults in Nashville and online to residents of Tennessee.
Experiencing the symptoms of anxiety, depression, or OCD can be incredibly stressful, especially if you are facing it alone. Therapy can help.
The good news is that these conditions are highly treatable. You are not the only person who has experienced these symptoms, and you do not need to suffer in silence.
Hi, I’m Jessica Cameron, LCSW (she/her), a licensed therapist who supports individuals with diverse backgrounds and life experiences.
Whether you have been in therapy before or are coming to therapy for the first time, we can work together to develop a treatment plan that is right for you.
My approach and style
My approach to therapy is warm and encouraging. I bring an attitude of curiosity to the challenges you are experiencing, helping to explore them with kindness and non-judgment. I believe that the work we do together is most effective when grounded in a strong, supportive relationship.
The modalities I use are evidence-based, meaning research has demonstrated them to be the gold standard in treating OCD, anxiety, and depression, including during pregnancy and postpartum. I incorporate mindfulness and self-compassion skills that research shows help manage symptoms of depression and anxiety while improving overall wellbeing.

Who I work with
My clients are adults with diverse backgrounds and life experiences. While it is important to understand the diagnosis we are addressing through therapy, I do not believe that you are defined by a diagnosis. I view all of my clients as complete human beings, taking into account their unique strengths, experiences, and contexts.
My practice is inclusive of people with a range of identities in regards to race, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, culture, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and ability. I am an LGBTQIA+ affirming therapist.

OCD & Anxiety
OCD and anxiety can cause individuals to feel stuck in cycles of distressing thoughts and behaviors. For both, research shows that treatment works.

Pregnancy, Postpartum & Parenting
Mood and anxiety disorders are the number one complication of the perinatal period, but that does not mean you have to suffer.
