Feeling constantly overwhelmed isn’t a personality flaw.
It’s often your nervous system doing exactly what it was trained to do.

A lot of people I work with say things like:
“I don’t know why I’m like this” or “I should be able to handle this.”

But what they’re experiencing is actually very predictable.

Therapy isn’t about “calming down” on command.
It’s about helping your body learn that it’s safe to do so.

If this resonates, you’re not alone 🤍

I offer a free 15-minute consult if you’re curious about starting therapy.

I recently had the opportunity to be a guest on the S*x, Life, Science podcast through The Briggs Institute talking about addiction, and it was such a meaningful conversation.

Addiction is often so misunderstood.

What looks like “lack of control” on the outside is often deeply connected to pain, coping, and patterns that developed for a reason.

In therapy, we are not just looking at the behavior. We are looking at what is underneath it.

The story.
The relationships.
The nervous system.
The patterns that keep people feeling stuck.

I am really grateful to be part of a practice that is having these kinds of conversations and working to reduce stigma around mental health.

If you or someone you know is struggling, support is available 🤍

Hi everyone! I wanted to officially introduce myself here.

My name is Kate Baugher, and I’m an Associate Marriage and Family Therapist at The Briggs Institute here in Nashville. I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating things like relationship conflict, life transitions, anxiety, and trauma.

I’m especially passionate about helping people feel more understood in their relationships, whether that’s with a partner, family member, or even within themselves. So many people feel stuck in the same patterns or conversations, and therapy can be a space to slow that down and create something different.

I also offer faith-integrated therapy for clients who want to incorporate their beliefs into the work we do together.

If you or someone you know is looking for support, I offer free 15-minute consultation calls to make sure it feels like a good fit before starting.

And if nothing else, I’m really glad you’re here. Mental health matters, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Feel free to share this or send someone my way 🤍
