Why Give?

You are showing Compassion by helping to provide holistic mental health care to people who need and could not otherwise afford it.

You are supporting the Artistry of creative, transliminal HSPs (not only clients, but also clinicians, board members, staff, and community).

Our Board is committed to demonstrating integrity and Trustworthiness of your investment in our vision.

Everything about how we are designing CATHARSIS is guided by Heart, from who is on our board, to how we do our meetings, to the nature of the space we’ll be creating, to our collaborative team approach to treatment, to the (future) annual musical theatre fundraisers.

As articulated by the Sycamore Institute, “Access to mental health care includes four components—affordability, Accessibility, availability, and acceptability.” CATHARSIS will soon be helping to provide all four!

Our vision is guided by Responsiveness to the needs of the whole person, creating an environment to support body, mind, emotions, spirit, and community.

First building the capital to grow our endowment sets us on a path of Sustainability, so that we can run CATHARSIS primarily off the interest.

Dr. K’s leadership is known for its Intentionality, with a proven track record for long-term vision and execution.

You are contributing to the Soulfulness of a beautiful place that you will be able to enjoy, too!

You are helping start a movement with the potential to change the face of mental health care. Thank you from our hearts for your support!

    “Learning that I’m a Highly Sensitive Person has helped me understand why I have felt so different from most people for my entire life and how it has impacted my relationships through the years.”
    -Jan B.
    Being an HSP feels like walking around with an open wound all the time. I am learning to see it as a gift and a superpower instead of a detriment.
    -Emily
    I think the most important thing for fellow HSPs who are seeking therapy is to have trust that you are not alone; you are not just “a weirdo” and there are people who are more than willing to talk, listen, explain, and help in any way they can.
    – Andy Nelson
    Had it been anyone else, I would have considered the undertaking of such a nonprofit a pipe dream. In your case, it seems a sure bet. I’m a believer. Your outstanding concert lent total credence to your commitment and the level of brilliance to see this through.
    – John Pell, composer and founder of Chet Atkins’ Nashville Guitar Quartet
    You have been so thorough and wise in the way you have structured the organization.  It will provide encouragement and healing to so many who have been fractured by the environment in which we live.
    -Dr. William F. Cooper, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Baylor University
    CATHARSIS is a vision of a place for healing, a place for fellow Nashvillians to come and seek treatment in a setting that is non-intimidating, where you can come and see a therapist, you might get a cup of coffee, you might have a massage.
    -Linda Kosack, Board Chair
    We need a place like CATHARSIS in Nashville because there are a lot of creatives in Nashville who need a place to get therapy, a place to be seen and a place to be heard.
    -Dr. Robbie Pinter, Board Time-Keeper
    CATHARSIS is body services, it’s med management, it’s psychotherapy, it’s community and belonging. It’s beautiful. What excites me most is people coming and my getting to see them feel safe.
    -Dr. David Thornton, Board Secretary
    The downside of being an HSP is we can struggle more, can become overstimulated more easily. We’re more susceptible to mental distress, to anxiety and depression. But these are also the folks who tend to be deeply creative and spiritual and empathic.
    -Dr. Laura Kreiselmaier, Founder and CEO of CATHARSIS
