About Brandi
Dr. Brandi Treadway is a Tennessee-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing relationship strain, family concerns, mood challenges, and big life transitions. She also supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, ADHD, and identity-related concerns including LGBT and multicultural issues.
Dr. Treadway uses a straightforward, person-focused way of working. Sessions focus on clear goals, practical skills, and improving everyday interactions. She draws on client-centered methods to center each person’s perspective and on cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and mindfulness tools appear in her work when emotion regulation and connection are priorities. Narrative therapy helps people reframe difficult stories about themselves and their relationships. These approaches are used to address things like attachment wounds, abandonment fears, blended family problems, and communication breakdowns.
Practical issues such as career stress, compassion fatigue, body image, and work-life balance are included in sessions. Dr. Treadway also supports adults coping with loneliness, midlife questions, and problems that stem from family of origin dynamics. Conversations are aimed at building coping strategies and clearer ways of relating to others.
People who choose her typically want concrete tools and honest discussion rather than abstract theory. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to outline goals and plan next steps.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online work can fit
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s experience. The therapist listens closely and follows what matters most to the client, which helps when decisions or relationships feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and teaches specific skills for stress, anxiety, and mood problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on patterns of emotion and connection and can help when intimacy or attachment concerns are central.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean mixing client-centered listening with CBT skill work or using EFT and mindfulness when emotion regulation and relationships are the focus.
Confirm the exact session formats before you book, as specific online options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, a shorter check-in at lunch, arranging sessions around work, or avoiding travel time. It also lets people use methods like CBT worksheets, mindfulness practices, and narrative exercises between sessions to support progress.
