About Brenita
Brenita Seay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Tennessee with fourteen years of experience. She offers straightforward, compassionate care for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or major life changes. She communicates in clear, direct language and focuses on practical steps clients can try between sessions.
Brenita creates a calm space where clients can speak openly about struggles without judgment. She works to build trust and to understand each person's story before suggesting ways forward.
Background and approach
Sessions emphasize active listening, collaborative goal-setting, and concrete skills for daily life. Her work draws on several therapeutic approaches, including client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, and mindfulness practices. Those tools are used to help people manage strong emotions, change unhelpful thought patterns, and notice moment-to-moment experiences.
Parents looking for help with parenting stress, sleep difficulties, or relationship strain will find practical strategies and coaching-style support. Brenita also tackles issues such as trauma, anger, bipolar concerns, and attention challenges with a steady, measured approach. She asks clients to respect scheduled times: a 10-minute grace period applies to 30-minute sessions and a 15-minute grace period applies to 45-minute sessions.
If the grace period is exceeded, the session will be marked as a no show and must be rescheduled. This helps preserve time to address the concerns brought to each meeting.

How Brenita’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the client’s lead. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they most want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers tools to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and build calm in daily life.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helpful and what is not.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are useful for conversations that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or quick coping reminders between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between appointments.
