Introduction

I’m Darlene Parker, AMFT, a Nashville-based counselor who helps adults and couples create real, lasting change. In practice with clients I have found that the barriers to healing and happiness are linked to how we talk to ourselves in our own minds. Changing our inner narrative and beliefs about ourselves from critical to kind - changes everything: depression, anxiety, how we relate to trauma triggering, relationships, body image, career intentions - everything. I'm trained in Brainspotting, Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy, and Premarital Counseling to support healing, clarity, and stronger connection. My approach is warm, practical, and action-oriented—focused on shifting patterns, not just talking about them. I help clients move through overwhelm, improve communication, and rebuild trust in themselves and their relationships. Above all, I offer a hopeful, grounded space where people can grow, reconnect, and feel more like themselves again. I offer most weekday late afternoons and Saturdays. I do not accept insurance but offer a sliding scale based on income/need and provide superbills for reimbursement.
