Therapy for 12 South Nashville
Private pay counseling for adults in and around 12 South
You've built something good here. The neighborhood, the career, the relationships, the life that looks right from the outside. And something still feels off.
That's not ingratitude. That's not weakness. That's what brings most people to therapy — not crisis, but a quiet sense that something underneath isn't working the way it should.
I'm Tim Jackson, a licensed therapist in Nashville. I work with adults individually and within their relationships. If you're in 12 South or the surrounding area and looking for a therapist who works at the depth this kind of work requires, I'd like to hear from you.
The Work
I use Emotionally Focused Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy — two approaches rooted in attachment science that go beneath the surface to understand what's actually driving the patterns. Not just what you're feeling, but why it keeps happening and what to do about it.
This isn't symptom management. It's real work, done carefully, at a pace that holds.
What Brings People Here
Adults from 12 South and surrounding neighborhoods come to therapy for a lot of different reasons. Some of the most common:
-
Anxiety that doesn't quiet down even when things are going well
-
Burnout — the kind that rest doesn't fix
-
Relationship patterns that keep repeating
-
A life transition that's harder to navigate than expected
-
Grief that doesn't follow a timeline
-
A sense of disconnection from yourself or the people around you
-
Something harder to name that's just been there too long
Whatever brought you here, there's likely a place for it.
Private Pay Therapy
This is a private pay practice. All sessions are $175 for 50 minutes. No insurance is billed for new clients. No diagnosis is required to begin.
Private pay means no third party in the room deciding what your care looks like, how many sessions you can have, or what you're allowed to work on. It's just you and the work.
If you have a PPO plan, a superbill is available upon request. Please note that Tim Jackson Counseling does not provide a formal diagnosis — which most insurance plans require for reimbursement. Contact your insurer directly to confirm what your plan requires before assuming reimbursement is available.
Getting Here
My office is located at 1530 Riverside Drive in East Nashville — about 10 minutes from 12 South depending on traffic. The office is on the bottom floor of Riverside Station with its own exterior entrance off the parking lot. Parking is always free.
If the drive doesn't work for your schedule, online sessions are available for adults across Tennessee and Virginia. Same approach, different room.
