A short reply, a slow answer, or a message left on read...these can be scary. They can feel like proof of a mistake for a lot of adults with ADHD. The mind fills in the blanks fast, and it usually fills them with the worst version of what the other person must be thinking.

That reaction often has a long history, since many of us were corrected or teased for years over things we couldn’t help. Therapy can be a place to notice the reaction sooner and to separate what the message actually said from what you’re afraid it means. That kind of work tends to be gradual, but it’s often how a short reply starts to feel like just a short reply.

Welcome, Madelaine! We are so happy you’re here.

Starting therapy, or starting with someone new, can feel like a big step, and we think Maddy is going to make it feel a little easier. She’s warm, she listens, and she tells you the truth. Nashville is lucky to have her, and so are we.

Maddy is a Nashville therapist for teens, adults, and couples, with a focus on grief counseling, OCD treatment, substance use, eating disorder recovery, and body image.

Her trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming approach includes EMDR-informed care and ERP, a well-researched treatment for OCD.

She’s in network with Aetna and Cigna, so getting started may be more affordable than you think.

If you’ve been thinking about reaching out, we’d love to hear from you! We're Cedar Tree Wellness Center, a small counseling group practice in Nashville.

Trauma doesn’t always look the way people expect, and you don’t have to have the right words for it to reach out.

Trauma-informed care means you set the pace. You choose what to share and when, and you can pause or change direction whenever you need to.

There are several well-researched ways to work with trauma, including EMDR, cognitive processing therapy, prolonged exposure, and trauma-focused CBT... Your therapist will talk through what might fit you, and you get a say in every step.

Our therapists bring trauma-informed care and specialized training to their sessions, right here in Nashville. If you’d like to see who might be a good match, get in touch to set up a brief intro call.

We’re Cedar Tree Wellness Center, and we’d be glad to hear from you. 🌳

Overworking can look like dedication from the outside, but for a lot of adults with ADHD, it's a way of making sure nobody has a reason to doubt them. The late nights, the extra checking, and the yeses to more work can all come from the fear of being the one who drops something.

Therapy can be a place to look at where that fear started and what it's been asking of you for all these years. That kind of work tends to be gradual, but it's often how people begin to do good work without feeling like they have to earn their place every day.

When you work in a helping profession, it's easy to assume that feeling numb means you've stopped caring. More often, it means you've been caring for a long time without enough support.

In this second part of our series for helpers, we wanted to introduce compassion fatigue: the emotional exhaustion that builds when you spend your days caring for people who are suffering. Recognizing the signs is often the first step toward finding relief. If you are a nurse, teacher, first responder, or helper here in Nashville, therapy can give you a place to process what you've taken in and reconnect with the parts of the work that still feel meaningful. You deserve support too. We are here when you are ready.

Finding a chosen family is a life-saving gift. But even when you are surrounded by people who love and accept you, it can feel lonely to carry the complicated memories of a religious childhood.

There is an unspoken assumption that once we leave the church or come out, the old shame and conditioning just vanish. But healing is rarely that tidy.

If you feel like you have to tuck away parts of your past, or if you are still carrying the hurt that lingers from it just to fit into q***r spaces, please know that you are not alone (trite but true).

The parts of you that are still processing, remembering, or grieving that chapter of your life belong here. You do not have to erase your history to be whole.

Our practice is a safe place to land for q***r folks in Nashville navigating religious trauma and deconstruction. We are here to listen when you are ready to share the story.
