If you are looking for advanced depression care right here in Nashville, the specialized team at Synaptic PSYCH is built to provide exactly that.

Meet Nashville’s Depression Experts:

Dr. Elizabeth Shultz, D.O.

At the center of our personalized depression care is Dr. Elizabeth Shultz, D.O., serving as the Medical Director at our vibrant Hillsboro Village location (2125 Belcourt Ave).

As a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.), Dr. Shultz brings a unique, whole-person philosophical framework to psychiatry. She doesn’t just evaluate isolated symptoms; she looks at how your physical health, biological systems, and environmental stressors intertwine to impact your mood.

Dr. Shultz specializes in highly effective, evidence-based treatments for complex mood disorders. Whether you are seeking tailored medication management, comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, or advanced interventional care, her focus is on creating a clear, compassionate roadmap toward remission.

Rounding Out the Nashville Depression Expert Team

To provide truly comprehensive brain care, Dr. Shultz works alongside an elite, multi-specialty medical team at the Nashville clinic.

  • Dr. Manpreet Bindra, D.O.: Bringing a deeply empathetic, forward-thinking approach to the clinic, Dr. Bindra is highly focused on the intersection of psychiatry and technology. He specializes in combining evidence-based psychotherapy with cutting-edge tools like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and nasal esketamine, building highly individualized toolkits so that patients can heal and thrive.

  • Dr. Jessica Merritt, MD: Adding vital depth to our clinical capabilities, Dr. Merritt brings specialized expertise in child, adolescent, and young adult psychiatry. Known for her strong background in community-based care and advocacy for vulnerable populations, she ensures that younger individuals facing complex psychiatric needs have access to the same high-level, innovative care frameworks and TMS treatment when appropriate.

A Powerhouse Collaboration for Better Brain Care

Exceptional mental healthcare thrives on collaborative expertise. Dr. Shultz works in tight-knit, structural connection with Dr. Michelle Cochran, MD, the Chief Medical Officer and visionary founder of Synaptic PSYCH.

Why this partnership matters for your care:

  • International Leadership: Dr. Cochran is a globally recognized psychiatric educator and a pioneer in interventional psychiatry. As a past president of the Clinical TMS Society, she co-founded international certification courses to establish global training standards for neurostimulation.

  • Translating Innovation to the Clinic: Because Dr. Cochran spends her time educating providers worldwide on breakthrough modalities, the clinical protocols used by Dr. Shultz at the Hillsboro Village location remain at the absolute vanguard of modern neuroscience.
  • Comprehensive Modalities: This leadership dynamic ensures that patients have seamless, in-network access to a full spectrum of care under one roof—ranging from traditional psychopharmacology and therapy to breakthrough treatments like Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and nasal esketamine.
