About Brenita
Brenita Seay is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Tennessee with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Her work also addresses self-esteem, motivation, parenting challenges, and managing life changes.
Brenita aims to make sessions feel calm and approachable. She creates space for clients to say what they are thinking and feeling without judgment. She emphasizes practical steps and clear conversation so people can try small changes between sessions.
How Brenita works
Her approach blends several methods to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered techniques that keep the person's goals at the center. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits.
Mindfulness and narrative work help people notice their inner story and find new ways to tell it. She also uses psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. Together these methods guide goal setting and problem solving in everyday life.
Brenita asks new clients to allow a brief grace period when arriving for scheduled sessions so there is enough time to cover concerns. She supports people who want to make steady progress and prefers clear, practical plans. Her style is supportive, straightforward, and focused on helping people move forward.

Online support options
Approaches online and what they do
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's needs and goals and creates a supportive space to talk things through. It helps when someone needs a calm, listening presence and wants to shape their own path. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches straightforward tools to change unhelpful thinking patterns. CBT is helpful for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Mindfulness therapy teaches ways to notice the present moment and reduce reactive responses. It can help with staying calm, improving sleep, and managing strong emotions.Choosing the right method is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. They tailor techniques over time, mixing approaches as needed so each plan fits the person's life and challenges.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals using video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for a conversational session that mirrors in-person meetings. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine.
