About Brandi
Dr. Brandi Treadway is a Tennessee licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on relationship concerns, mood issues, stress, anxiety, and matters tied to family and identity.
She helps people untangle the ways their family of origin shapes current patterns. Conversations often focus on attachment, communication problems, abandonment concerns, and blended family issues. She also addresses self-esteem, career questions, midlife transitions, and the strain that comes from caregiving or compassion fatigue.
Her approach blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral tools and emotionally-focused strategies. Sessions include practical skill building, clearer communication practice, and attention to how past relationships influence present choices. Mindfulness and narrative techniques are used to help people notice patterns and tell their story differently.
Dr. Treadway works with clients who identify across diverse backgrounds and sexual orientations, and she notes multicultural concerns as part of her focus. She also lists ADHD, mood disorders, and intimacy-related issues among the topics she sees.
People looking to begin can expect straightforward conversation about goals and steps they can try between sessions. She asks about current stresses, family history, and what the person hopes to change. The overall emphasis is on clearer relationships, improved coping, and making practical adjustments that fit daily life.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's goals and perspective, encouraging open reflection and collaborative problem solving. It helps when people want a supportive space to sort through family patterns and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to change them, which can be helpful for anxiety, mood issues, and stress. Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional experiences in relationships, guiding people to name feelings and try new ways of connecting.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that match those goals, and adjust the plan over time. That collaboration helps clarify whether more skills practice, emotional processing, or narrative work is most useful.
