About Barborita
Barborita Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 16 years of experience. She works with adults who are coping with trauma and abuse, anger, depression, anxiety, stress, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, eating issues, parenting pressures, ADHD, and other life changes.
Her approach is straightforward. She uses client-centered methods to build a workable dialogue. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are offered to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment focus.
Sessions aim to clarify immediate problems and set practical steps forward. Barborita helps people name patterns that get in the way and practices alternatives together. Motivational Interviewing techniques support goal-setting and change when motivation feels low.
She has worked across many concerns over her career, including abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, and blended family issues. Other focus areas include caregiver stress, chronic illness, communication problems, divorce and separation, substance concerns, and fatherhood issues.
People can expect plain language and direct feedback rather than jargon. The first conversations typically map current problems and agree on short-term goals. Ongoing sessions review progress and adjust strategies to match what is working.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a collaborative relationship. In practice this means the therapist will prioritize the client's concerns and adapt conversations to what matters most to them. It helps with clarity, emotional support, and planning next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings, and actions together. Online CBT sessions often include specific exercises and homework to test new ways of thinking and behaving. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday problems.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and awareness skills to reduce reactivity. Simple breathing and grounding practices are introduced and practiced during sessions to help manage stress and improve focus.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with clients to decide which approaches suit their goals and preferences. That collaborative choice can shift as people try techniques and see what helps.
