Caroline West is a professional therapist currently pursuing full licensure in the Nashville area. She holds a Bachelor of Arts from DePaul University and a Master’s of Education in Human Development Counseling from Vanderbilt University.

​

Caroline utilizes an integrative approach to therapy. She draws from traditional therapeutic modalities, as well as somatic and mindfulness-based practices to best help individuals align and strengthen their minds, bodies, and spirits. She has also received training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Caroline recognizes and affirms all identities and bodies and strives to create a safe and supportive space for healing. While she has experience working with a variety of presenting concerns, her specialties include grief, trauma, and spiritual concerns.

​

“I believe that health and healing do not simply come from the absence of illness and suffering, but rather in the presence of joy and meaning. I am passionate about meeting clients where they are and walking beside them as they reconnect to who they are beyond the discomfort of psychological pain.”

 

Outside of work, you can find Caroline at a Farmers' Market, listening to live music, working on her pottery skills, or spending time in the sunshine.

Caroline is currently fulfilling the Tennessee licensure requirement of post-masters supervision and is receiving supervision from Dr. Kristi Marshall, an approved supervisor by the state of Tennessee.
