About Barborita

Barborita Williams is an LPC who brings 16 years of clinical experience to clients in Tennessee. She focuses on concerns such as trauma and abuse, anger, depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, eating concerns, parenting challenges, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Background and approach

Her approach centers on meeting each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while shaping treatment to fit individual needs. She combines client-centered listening with practical tools drawn from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to address patterns of thinking, emotional reactivity, and motivation for change.

Barborita adapts conversations and interventions to the priorities a client brings, aiming to support clearer coping strategies and healthier daily routines. Taking the first step toward change can feel difficult, and she emphasizes collaborative work to help clients move toward more fulfilling, manageable lives.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Barborita uses client-centered therapy to create a collaborative space where the client's priorities guide the work. This approach emphasizes active listening and empathy, and it helps people feel heard while they clarify goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers practical, goal-oriented techniques to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new coping strategies; it can be especially helpful for anxiety, depression, and behavior change.

Finding the right approach is often a process rather than a single decision. The therapist works together with each client to determine which combination of client-centered support, CBT tools, and mindfulness practices best matches the client's needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow people to engage in regular therapeutic work from home or other convenient settings, making it easier to maintain consistency while balancing work and life responsibilities. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and conversational work to fit each online format so clients can move toward their goals in ways that fit their schedules.
