trauma and perinatal therapy in nashville, TN
Compassionate counseling for trauma, pregnancy/postpartum, and relationship challenges | individual and couples therapy | in-person in nashville and online in Tennessee
Does it feel like no matter what, life seems heavier than it should?
Lately, life has begun to feel unmanageable. You may find yourself lost and struggling, unable to fully name what is going on inside your mind and body. At McLaine Mabry Counseling, I provide trauma therapy, perinatal mental health counseling, and couples therapy throughout Nashville and the surrounding areas, including 12 South, Berry Hill, and Brentwood. I aim to help individuals and partners wishing to live a more connected, balanced life.
Many of my clients come to therapy seeking support for relational trauma, attachment wounds, confusing childhood experiences, and nervous system dysregulation. Trauma therapy- including EMDR and somatic approaches- can help you unpack your own story and finally feel grounded in your body and relationships.
These concerns often overlap with my other speciality area in perinatal mental health. Pregnancy and postpartum counseling can help you find steady ground while navigating a transition filled with profound change, identity shifts and emotional complexity.
Sometimes these struggles are best explored together in couples or marriage counseling. Whether you are seeking premarital counseling, preparing to transition into parenthood, or working through disconnection and communication challenges, therapy can help you move out of the fog and find your way back to each other.
You know something needs to change… but you don’t know where to start.
specializing in:
01
Trauma and difficult experiences often get in the way of fully connecting with others. You may know you’ve lived through trauma, or you may just feel the weight of painful experiences you can’t quite name. Either way, I can help you process those wounds and begin to heal, so you can feel more grounded, connected, and free.
02
Even the most ‘textbook’ experience of trying for a baby, pregnancy, and postpartum is an immense period of change. Rarely do our stories follow the textbook anyway. Perinatal Mental Health therapy is for want-to-be, soon-to-be, oh-my-god-now-I-am parents seeking counseling for navigating the pregnancy and postpartum period.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I know that often our struggles are best solved by treating the system rather than the individual. My couples therapy clients come to me for pre-engagement counseling or pre-marital counseling, couples therapy before having a baby, or marriage counseling for communication and navigating the adjustment to having young children.
