About Barborita
Barborita Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 16 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and stress. She aims to create a respectful and compassionate space where clients can begin to feel heard and understood.
She listens first and tailors conversations to each person's story and goals. Sessions are practical and down-to-earth. Clients can expect a mix of talking through immediate concerns and learning new ways to cope with difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Barborita uses a few core methods that fit many concerns. She draws on client-centered techniques to follow the client's lead and build trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness tools are offered to manage stress and emotional reactivity. Her background includes long-term work with trauma and addiction-related issues. That history informs a steady, patient approach when safety and emotion regulation are priorities.
She also supports people facing family and relationship struggles, parenting strain, and caregiver stress. Barborita works with adults who want concrete skills and honest conversation. She adapts plans as goals change, and she helps clients track progress over time.
If someone is ready to try a practical approach to feeling better, she guides the first steps toward change.
Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's needs. It helps build trust and makes room for the client's own goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches concrete skills to shift them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress, which many people find useful between sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will collaborate with the client to choose what fits best. Together they will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan as progress is made and needs evolve.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls are good for in-depth work and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option for times when being on camera is hard. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, quick skill practice, or scheduling follow-ups without a full session. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy days while keeping the focus on practical tools and steady progress.
