About Barborita
Barborita Williams is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Tennessee with 16 years of experience. She works with people facing trauma and abuse, anger, depression, stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, parenting, ADHD, and coping with life changes.
She uses straightforward conversation to identify what is most pressing. Sessions focus on what someone wants to change and on practical steps that can help. Barborita adapts the pace so people can move forward without feeling rushed.
Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on the person sitting across from her. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Mindfulness techniques are woven in to help with stress and emotional regulation.
She brings experience from many settings to address complex situations like abandonment, attachment issues, blended family problems, caregiving stress, chronic illness, and substance use. That background helps when someone faces multiple challenges at once.
Barborita explains options and checks in about what is and is not helpful. She uses Motivational Interviewing when people want to change habits or substance use but feel stuck. Practical skills, short-term goals, and regular review of progress are part of how she structures work together.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what someone says so they feel understood; online sessions use that same conversational style to clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks concerns into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises people can practice between sessions to reduce distress. Mindfulness Therapy adds short attention and grounding practices that help manage stress and improve focus.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Barborita works with clients to decide which approaches fit their needs and preferences. She checks progress and adapts plans as goals and circumstances change so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, school, and caregiving responsibilities. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and for using exercises or worksheets during the session to practice skills in real time.
