Dr. Jeannine Pablo
Psychologist, LP, LCMHC, MLADC
Navigating childhood and adolescence brings distinct developmental and emotional milestones. Utilizing evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and play-informed strategies, I help young people build essential coping skills for anxiety, depression, ADHD, social and academic stress. Recognizing that lasting change thrives on collaboration, I partner closely with parents and families to create supportive home systems, improve behavioral regulation, and foster healthier familial communication.

Nashville's identity as the hub of the country music and entertainment industries creates distinct demand for therapists who understand performance anxiety, creative identity, and the psychological pressures of a career where public persona and private self are often difficult to separate. The city's explosive growth — driven by healthcare, technology, and tourism — has brought a large influx of transplants navigating social isolation and the challenge of building community in a fast-changing city. Vanderbilt University Medical Center and HCA Healthcare, one of the largest hospital systems in the country, provide major institutional mental health resources alongside a growing network of private practices. Nashville's strong faith community means many residents seek therapists who can integrate spiritual values with evidence-based treatment for anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns.
