Kaylee Belt, LCSW

Offering in-person therapy in East Nashville and the Music Row area, with virtual therapy available across Tennessee.

Hi. I’m glad you’re here. Therapy can feel intimidating (whether it’s your first time or your hundredth) and you don’t have to have it all figured out to start. I believe meaningful healing happens in connection, and I aim to create a space that feels safe enough to be real, where all parts of you are welcome.

Areas of Support

I work with adults (18+) navigating developmental and complex trauma, with a focus on those who have experienced sexual trauma. I also support individuals noticing strong inner critics, perfectionism, or overachievement, as well as those moving through life transitions and exploring their patterns, identity, and internal experiences with curiosity and care.

My Approach to Therapy

My approach is relational, curious, and attuned. My work is trauma-informed and grounded in a social justice lens, honoring the ways systems, identity, and lived experience shape how we move through the world. I integrate multiple modalities with a strong focus on the mind-body connection, supporting you in understanding your patterns, building awareness, and exploring new ways of being at a pace that feels right for you.
