delilah at work + school
Therapist-led mental health workshops, trainings, and keynotes for Nashville workplaces and schools — built for teams, teachers, and students who deserve to feel supported, not just managed.
Delilah fills the gaps where wellness programs often fall short
At Delilah Counseling, we bring the same real, collaborative, evidence-based care our clients know us for straight into your workplace or school. Our workplace mental health workshops and school mental health programs in Nashville are led by licensed therapists — not generic wellness vendors — so employees, educators, and students walk away with tools that actually work on a Tuesday afternoon, not just a feel-good hour.
For businesses, our corporate mental health workshops help leaders and teams build emotional intelligence, set healthy boundaries, communicate clearly, and recognize burnout before it shows up as turnover or missed deadlines. For schools, our student mental health workshops and teacher wellness trainings give students real coping skills for anxiety and stress — and give educators the tools to support them without burning out themselves.

real therapists. real tools. real change.
Most wellness programs — corporate or school-based — stop at a webinar and a meditation app. Delilah's workshops are designed and led by licensed mental health professionals who work with anxiety, burnout, trauma, and relationships every day — so what we teach is clinically credible, hands-on, and grounded in evidence-based approaches like DBT.
We specialize in the mental health of women and girls, which makes us an especially strong partner for schools, women-led companies, women's leadership programs, and employee resource groups. And because we're right here in East Nashville, we know this city, its schools, and the pace your people are keeping.
- led by licensed therapists, including Dr. Andrea Santa Maria
- evidence-based, interactive, and never preachy
- tailored to your team — never one-size-fits-all

good questions
What is a workplace mental health workshop?
A workplace mental health workshop is a facilitated session that teaches employees practical skills for managing stress, preventing burnout, communicating well, and supporting their mental health at work. At Delilah, every workshop is led by a licensed therapist.
Do you offer mental health workshops for Nashville businesses and schools?
Yes. Delilah Counseling offers onsite mental health workshops, trainings, and keynotes for businesses, schools, and community organizations throughout Nashville.
Can workshops be customized for our team?
Always. We tailor topics, length, format, and examples to your team's goals, industry, and group size.
Can you lead professional development or in-service days for teachers?
Yes. We offer in-service and PD sessions on teacher burnout, recognizing student anxiety and distress, and creating calmer, more supportive classrooms.
Do you work with schools?
Yes — schools are one of our core partners. We offer mental health workshops for students, wellness trainings for teachers and staff, and parent education nights, with a special focus on girls' mental health, anxiety, and self-esteem.
Is this the same as therapy?
No. Workshops are educational and skills-based, not group therapy, and no one is asked to share more than they're comfortable with. Anyone who wants individual support can learn more about individual counseling at Delilah.
How much do your workshops cost?
Pricing depends on format, group size, and customization. Reach out for a quote and we'll put together a proposal that fits your budget.
