About Darla

Darla Roundtree is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and trauma. She brings ten years of social work experience to each session and centers on listening carefully. Her style is calm and present, focused on helping people name what matters and take small steps forward.

She aims to offer steady, nonjudgmental support while helping clients build practical skills. Darla often uses clear, concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to address unhelpful thinking patterns.

Background and approach

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotions. Sessions emphasize the person’s strengths and real-life goals. Darla helps people clarify values and make changes that fit their daily routines.

Conversations are collaborative and paced to the client’s needs. Her experience includes work with grief, LGBT concerns, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, and career challenges. She also supports people coping with caregiving stress, adoption and foster care questions, blended family difficulties, and the fallout of divorce and separation.

Darla holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential - LCSW - in Tennessee (TN LCSW 6470). She provides services in English and welcomes international clients. Sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches suited to online work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and patterns; it helps people understand why they react a certain way in close relationships and can reduce repeated hurt. Client-centered therapy focuses on careful listening and respect for the person’s own goals; it helps people feel heard and make choices that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical ways to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can relieve anxiety and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then recommend techniques or combinations that fit best. Sessions can shift over time as needs change and progress is made.

Online therapy makes these approaches easier to access. Video calls let the therapist and client meet face to face from different locations. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging add flexibility for tight schedules or short check-ins. These options can help people integrate therapy into busy lives and make steady progress without long commutes.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
