Nashville TN area therapists with weekend/evening availabilitys

October 1, 2017 9:22 AM

What Nashville area therapists do you know of who are available on evenings or weekends? Better yet, anyone you can recommend? Issues mainly: bipolar disorder, anxiety issues, relationship skills.

I want to get back into therapy, but have a 40+ hr/week job that really, really doesn't allow for taking an hour off here or there.

Issues mainly revolve around bipolar disorder, anxiety issues, relationship skills. A woman would be preferable but at this point isn't necessary, and I would strongly prefer someone NOT faith based.

Any suggestions? My google skills are failing me with this one.

At the Psychology Today Therapist site, you can put in Nashville for location, 'show only women' for therapist's gender, and bipolar under issues (click the 'more' link under issues on the left-hand menu for that choice to appear; you can choose more than one). Those criteria turned up 6+ pages of listings, and if you chose to winnow further for therapists who offer video counseling, I think you'll also find the ones with extended office hours.

The few therapists' profiles I clicked on offering that service were part of larger counseling practices, which also may afford night/weekend hours because of the greater staff coverage. Read through and email the therapists whose training and treatment approaches appeal to you.

I hope someone comes in with a personal recommendation. Best wishes.
