When it comes to counseling for women in Nashville, we know that choosing where to start can feel overwhelming. At Delilah Counseling, we’ve made it our mission to listen deeply and fill the gaps where other therapy for women may have fallen short — offering counseling that feels authentic, effective, and deeply personalized.

client love

"I never knew that I could have this kind of relationship with therapy, but it has been a game-changer. The growth I have seen in myself in just these past couple of months since attending weekly sessions at Delilah has been incredible."

our specialty areas

  • Four women with blonde hair and light skin smiling and talking in a living room. One woman is standing and the other three are sitting on a white sofa. The woman standing wears a cream-colored top and dark skirt. The woman sitting on the left wears a brown blazer and cream trousers. The woman in the middle wears a white dress with eyelet pattern. The woman sitting on the right has ginger hair and wears a white top. There is a framed ballet drawing on the wall behind them and a potted plant beside it.

    disordered eating & body image

    a compassionate, non-judgmental space to rebuild trust with your body and with food

  • A shelf with a white surface holds a small speaker, a stack of books including one titled 'Little Women' and 'The Drawings of Piccino', a brown decorative vase, a white candle holder, and a large white vase with green leafy plants. Above the shelf, a framed botanical print of red poppies hangs on a dark gray wall.

    life transitions

    new jobs, moves, breakups, becoming a parent — support for whatever season you're navigating.

  • Two women sitting on a beige couch, one with red hair and a white shirt, the other with blonde hair and a cream-colored sweater, looking at a clipboard and a smartphone. A framed art piece depicting a vase of flowers hangs on the wall behind them.

    trauma & PTSD

    evidence-based approaches, including EMDR, to process what happened and move forward

  • A living room with two brown leather armchairs on either side of a small wooden side table. The table holds a tall white ceramic lamp with a large drum shade and a tassel decoration. A stack of books is on a lower shelf of the table. The background wall is painted dark gray, and the floor has a light-colored wood finish with a patterned area rug.

    obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)

    real tools to manage intrusive thoughts and compulsions — without shame

  • A beige sofa with a brown pillow, a large green potted plant to the right, and framed artwork on a white wall behind the sofa.

    peer relationships

    friendship dynamics, social anxiety, and belonging — especially for teens and young adults

  • Two women sitting on a light-colored couch in a living room, smiling at the camera. One woman has long blonde hair and is wearing a sleeveless white top and gray pants. The other woman has shoulder-length dark hair and is wearing a light beige sweater and white pants. Behind them is a dark-colored wall, a large houseplant, and windows with white curtains.

    family dynamics

    untangling patterns with parents, siblings, or family systems that shape how you show up

  • A spiral notebook, two black and white pens, and a blank white sheet of paper on a wooden surface.

    anxiety, stress & panic

    from racing thoughts to physical panic symptoms, we help you build tools to feel steady again

  • Five women sitting on a beige bench in a cozy, well-lit room, smiling and engaging with each other. They are dressed in stylish, semi-formal attire, with some wearing heels and others in boots. The room has a white brick wall on the left, a framed floral artwork above them, and a tall green potted plant on the right.

    maternal mental health

    support through pregnancy, postpartum, and the identity shifts that come with motherhood

  • Top-down view of a wooden tray with a green potted plant, a black book titled 'Thirty Years from the Home of Underground Rock,' a transparent yellow glass sculpture, and black and white pens on top of the book, on a wooden surface.

    relationship patterns & attachment

    Description goes here

Every client at Delilah is offered sliding-scale pricing based on household income, because cost shouldn't be the reason you don't get support. We're an out-of-network practice, and many clients use their insurance benefits by requesting a "superbill" for partial reimbursement — we'll walk you through it.

we’re committed to making high quality therapy accessible for all women
