Neva Murray, PhD

Neva Murray is a Nashville, Tennessee-based licensed psychologist who works with adult and teen clients to reduce suffering, heal from past experiences, improve relationships, and build emotional strength and resilience. She is currently available for both in-person and telehealth appointments.

Neva’s clinical interests include working with clients who are struggling with trauma and PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, LGBTQ+ issues, relationship challenges, major life changes, identity development, religious trauma, and spirituality. Neva practices therapy through a Humanistic lens, with influences from psychodynamic and feminist theories, ultimately customizing treatment to meet the unique needs of each individual client.

Neva creates a warm, collaborative space, to encourage authenticity and meaningful conversation with her valued clients. She helps clients identify behaviors, feelings, thoughts, relationships, and systems that are impediments to personal growth – and empowers them to explore new approaches that can lead to healing, growth, and personal fulfillment.  

In addition to her therapy work, Neva also conducts psychoeducational assessments for clients seeking answers to questions about psychological, emotional, or behavioral challenges that may be interfering with social, professional, or academic success.

Prior to joining Nashville Psych, Neva completed postdoctoral training at Vanderbilt University’s University Counseling Center after earning a PhD in Clinical Psychology from the Fuller School of Psychology in Pasadena, California.
