Helping You Find Your Path to Parenting

Nashville Integrative Therapy helps parents explore safe and accessible pathways to parenting.

Despite what influencers might say, there’s no one “right way” to be a parent. We’ll help you find your way to a safe, rewarding parenting style that’s true to who you are. You know yourself and your child. Our job is to help you find what works for both of you.

We work with individual parents, couples, caregivers, and co-parents. For parents who want support in those tough early months, we offer mother/child and family sessions where we’ll explore bonding and attachment.

Navigating the Complexities of Parenting, Together

We bring a background in hospital social work and perinatal mental health to this space. That means we understand the systems parents are navigating — medical, educational, therapeutic — and we know how to hold space for the emotional complexity beneath the surface. We help parents of infants, tweens, and teens struggling with:

  • Anxiety

  • Attachment-Related Patterns

  • Behavior Issues

  • Blended Family Challenges

  • Emotional Regulation

Our Approach to Parent Support Therapy in Nashville

Parenting therapy at Nashville Integrative Therapy isn't about handing you a framework or sending you home with a worksheet. It's thoughtful, considered, collaborative, and rooted in what's actually happening in your lived experience. 

We'll explore how your attachment history shapes your relationship with your children and yourself. We'll look at patterns that feel unproductive, moments that feel too big, and the quiet grief or feelings of inadequacy that may be simmering under the surface

Our goal in our parenting support sessions is the same one we hold for every client: To help you get to a place where you feel steadier as a parent and with your child — not because everything is fixed, but because you understand it better and trust yourself more.

Frequently Asked Questions About Our Parenting Support Therapy Sessions Based in Nashville, TN

  • Yes! Becoming a more patient parent is one of the most common goals people bring to these sessions. Parenting support therapy helps you understand why certain behaviors trigger big reactions in you. Whether heightened reactions are rooted in your own childhood experiences, generalized stress, or unrealistic expectations, exploring the root causes of impatience can help you become a more patient parent. 

  • Bonding and attachment issues are more common than many parents expect! Factors as wide-ranging as birth trauma, postpartum mood changes, your baby's temperament, or your own attachment history can make early connections feel harder than your Insta feed thinks they should be.

  • Absolutely not. At Nashville Integrative Therapy, we believe that parenting support is valuable at every stage of your journey. Each developmental phase brings its own challenges, and the transitions between them can rattle even the most confident and accomplished parent. Wherever you are in your parenting timeline, having a space to reflect, problem-solve, and strengthen your relationship with your child is worthwhile.

  • Yes. Parenting a child living with ADHD, OCD, autism, sensory processing differences, RAD, DMDD, ODD, or other neurodevelopmental differences requires an entirely different set of parenting skills and a different kind of support. Odds are you already spend plenty of time in therapy with your kid and talking about them — our sessions focus on you. We’ll explore how you’re holding up and what we can do to support you on this challenging journey.

  • Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is a structured, evidence-based protocol that’s typically used with parents of younger children who have significant behavioral challenges. 


    Parenting support therapy is broader and more flexible. It may draw on PCIT principles, but our sessions are tailored to your specific situation. We can address your own emotional experience of parenting and explore how past experiences may be shaping how you parent today.

  • We’re a nonprofit practice, so we're able to offer sliding scale and deep sliding scale rates, which gives us a lot more flexibility than the insurance model allows. If paying for therapy is a concern, bring it up during the no-cost consultation — we'll figure out what's workable. We do not accept insurance.

    Generally speaking, parenting support services are not classified as a clinical healthcare service and most insurance companies will not accept a superbill for out-of-network reimbursement.

  • We don't publish our full rate scale on the website, but we're always happy to talk through options during your free 20-minute consultation. Parenting support sessions are 50 or 75 minutes long. As a nonprofit practice, we are able to offer sliding scale and deep sliding scale fees based on your financial situation. 

  • We offer virtual sessions or in-person appointments at our offices, located at 1231 17th Avenue South, on Nashville’s Music Row.

  • We offer 50- to 75-minute sessions, depending on your parenting support needs.
