Nat Nigro
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, M.Ed., LPC-MHSP
As a nonbinary AuDHD therapist, I view BPD through a Neurodivergent affirming lens. Often my clients with BPD benefit from DBT skills work to manage difficult experiences they are having in the present moment, while also using a trauma based approach to look deeper at past experiences that may be impacting them in the present as well. I think we all deserve a safe place to heal and be ourselves, and I would be honored to create one of those spaces for you.

Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee — the state's flagship research university — and serves as the gateway to the Great Smoky Mountains and Appalachian outdoor recreation culture, giving it a distinctive blend of college-town energy and Appalachian heritage that shapes its therapy community. The city's growing healthcare sector, anchored by UT Medical Center and Covenant Health, provides institutional mental health resources and supplies clinical training to the local community. Knoxville's working-class Appalachian communities carry distinct cultural attitudes toward help-seeking — including strong value on self-reliance and community support — that therapists must navigate with cultural sensitivity. The University of Tennessee's psychology programs, combined with the city's proximity to Appalachian communities experiencing opioid-related crisis, mean addiction recovery and co-occurring trauma are among the most active areas in Knoxville's local therapy landscape.
