About Mindy
Mindy Lane is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. Mindy emphasizes practical steps and clear talk to help people manage difficult moments and regain a sense of control.
She approaches therapy as a collaborative process. She sees clients as experts in their own lives and helps them build on their strengths.
Background and approach
Sessions often include goal-setting, skill practice, and straightforward problem-solving that you can use between meetings. Mindy draws from several approaches to match what feels right for each person. She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect, cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior, and EMDR when trauma memories are part of the problem.
These tools are combined in a way that fits a person’s goals and pace. Many people come to Mindy for help with relationship and communication problems, grief, coping with life changes, addictions, and issues around identity such as LGBT and gender concerns. She also supports those navigating adoption and foster care questions, mood disorders, ADHD, and anger regulation.
Her style is direct and compassionate. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair a person with her practice and schedule sessions according to availability.

How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience without judgment. Online sessions let the therapist reflect what matters most to you and help you set goals that feel realistic.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions affect mood. In online work, CBT often includes practical homework, written exercises, and short skill practice between video or chat sessions to help change patterns.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used when past trauma affects day-to-day life. Adapted for online formats, it can include guided processing and pacing suited to how quickly a person wants to work through painful memories.
Choosing an approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with you about goals, preferences, and which methods feel right. Together you can try a method and adjust as needed to find what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility. Video calls allow face-to-face work and screen-sharing of worksheets; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera; live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or shorter reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied routines.
