About Barborita
Barborita Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee who focuses on helping people manage anxiety and related concerns. She offers steady support and practical guidance for those feeling overwhelmed by stress, grief, or life changes. Barborita uses simple, direct conversation to help clients find clearer footing.
She shapes each session around the individual. That means listening first, then building a plan that fits daily life and current needs.
Background and approach
She draws on client-centered methods to center the person's perspective and build trust in the room. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is one tool she uses to identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness practices are also introduced to help calm the body and focus attention in moments of distress.
Motivational Interviewing helps when people feel stuck or unsure about change. Across 16 years in practice, Barborita has worked with concerns such as trauma and abuse, anger, depression, addictions, parenting stress, eating concerns, ADHD, and relationship or family conflict. She also addresses adoption and foster care issues, attachment and abandonment worries, caregiver strain, chronic illness or pain, and forgiveness work.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. She aims to make sessions practical, respectful, and focused on small steps that lead to meaningful change.
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. In online sessions she prioritizes a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere and shapes each conversation around individual goals and concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people spot patterns in thinking that fuel anxiety or low mood and test small changes in behavior. Online CBT can include straightforward exercises and homework that fit into daily routines. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful moments.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Barborita works with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. She starts with listening, then tries techniques and adjusts based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls mimic face-to-face sessions for in-depth work, phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
