About Brandi

Dr. Brandi Treadway is a Tennessee licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of clinical experience helping people navigate relationships, career shifts, parenting and mood concerns. She works with adults facing anxiety, depression, trauma and stress. Her practice also includes support around identity, LGBT concerns, ADHD, and intimacy-related issues.

She uses straightforward, skills-based methods to help clients notice unhelpful thought patterns and change habits that get in the way of daily life. Sessions often focus on practical coping strategies, clearer communication, and rebuilding connection where it has frayed. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and emotionally focused methods.

Dr. Treadway pays attention to how family history and attachment shape current relationships. That can mean looking at abandonment or blended family issues, family-of-origin patterns, and communication problems. She helps people name patterns and try small changes to see what shifts in real life.

Her work also covers stress related to work and life transitions, midlife concerns, and questions about life purpose. For people experiencing compassion fatigue, body image worries, or feelings of emptiness, she offers practical steps to reduce overwhelm and increase daily functioning.

Sessions address both short-term goals and deeper themes when helpful. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online therapy options button. Fees vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to online work

Dr. Treadway uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with concrete exercises. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and problem-solving around work and relationships.

She also draws on client-centered methods that focus on the person's perspective and goals, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at attachment and patterns in close relationships. These approaches help when the aim is clearer communication, repairing connection, or understanding attachment-related concerns.

Finding the best approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean starting with CBT skills, moving into emotionally focused work, or combining mindfulness and narrative techniques.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce the time spent traveling. Therapists and licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to help therapy fit around work, caregiving, and everyday life.
