Denishia Nash
Maybe you’re excited to be pregnant, but also overwhelmed, anxious, or wondering why this doesn’t feel the way you thought it would. Maybe you’re navigating the emotional roller coaster of fertility treatment, another negative test, a miscarriage, or the complicated transition into postpartum life. You don’t have to navigate all of those feelings alone. I’m a therapist who specializes in fertility, pregnancy, miscarriage, and postpartum mental health. I provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can talk honestly about the parts that are hard even the thoughts and feelings you’re afraid you “shouldn’t” have. Whether you’re trying to build your family, preparing to become a parent, or finding yourself again after birth, I’m here to help you feel supported, understood, and a little less alone.
I believe therapy should feel like a partnership, one that honors your story, celebrates your resilience, and helps you move toward lasting growth and balance.
I have extensive experience working with anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and PTSD, infertility, pre- and postpartum challenges, substance use, and the unique experiences of first responders, active military, and veterans. Through my work in private practice, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and hospitals, I’ve learned that everyone’s journey is different and that healing happens when we feel truly understood and supported. In our sessions, I take a collaborative and empowering approach. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, uncover your inner strengths, and build tools to help you navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. I believe therapy should feel like a partnership, one that honors your story, celebrates your resilience, and helps you move toward lasting growth and balance. Whether you’re seeking relief from anxiety, healing from trauma, or simply wanting to reconnect with yourself, I’m here to walk alongside you. You deserve to feel grounded, hopeful, and at peace — and I’d be honored to support you on that path.
First session
Our first session is all about getting to know you , your story, your goals, and what brought you to therapy. We’ll take time to talk about what’s been going on in your life, what you’d like to work on, and what you hope to gain from our sessions together. You can expect a safe, welcoming space where you can speak freely and at your own pace. There’s no pressure to share everything at once; we’ll go step by step and build trust as we go. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your background, experiences, and current challenges, but our conversation will flow naturally. By the end of our first meeting, we’ll start outlining a plan together identifying priorities, possible approaches, and what support feels most helpful to you. My goal is for you to leave that first session feeling heard, supported, and hopeful about the future.
Strengths
My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique needs. I blend evidence-based methods like CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to help clients gain insight, build resilience, and create lasting change. Clients often share that they feel truly seen, supported, and empowered in our work together.
Ideal clients
I’m best positioned to support adults who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck and are ready to make meaningful change. I work well with individuals navigating trauma, infertility, postpartum transitions, relationship stress, or major life adjustments. My clients are often motivated to understand themselves better, build healthier coping tools, and find balance and peace in their daily lives. Whether you’re seeking healing, clarity, or growth, I’m here to meet you where you are and help you move forward with confidence and compassion.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT can be so helpful when we start understanding unhelpful thought patterns and learn to change our behavior.
Motivational Interviewing
helps get the client to open up and figure out where they are in the cycle of change.
EMDR
I’m currently completing specialized training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and am welcoming clients who are interested in exploring this approach as part of their healing journey. EMDR can be a helpful tool for working through trauma, difficult life experiences, anxiety, grief, and experiences that may continue to affect you in the present. My approach is always collaborative, compassionate, and paced around your comfort level—you will never be pushed to discuss or process anything before you’re ready.
