About Darla
Darla Roundtree is a licensed clinical social worker with ten years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She works with people facing relationship challenges, parenting strain, grief, and concerns related to identity and intimacy. Her approach emphasizes steady presence and practical support during hard moments.
She listens closely and helps people name what matters most to them. Sessions focus on clear steps and small changes a person can try between meetings.
How Darla works
Darla aims to help people tap into their own strengths rather than label them by their difficulties. Darla draws on several well-known approaches to guide her work. She uses client-centered methods to follow each person’s pace, cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and attachment-based ideas to improve how people connect with others.
These approaches are used in practical ways, not as abstract theory. In sessions she offers direct feedback and coaching when helpful, and she supports emotional processing when people need to grieve or work through past harm. She also helps people manage caregiving stress, burnout, and challenges that come with health issues like cancer.
Her work is adaptable to many concerns, including ADHD, bipolar challenges, codependency, and life transitions such as divorce or separation. Darla accepts international clients and practices from Tennessee as an LCSW.

Online support options
Approaches that guide online sessions
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early and current relationships shape how people respond to stress and intimacy. It helps people notice patterns in close connections and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and pace; the therapist listens without judgment and follows what the person brings, which can help people feel understood and make choices that fit their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical skills to challenge unhelpful thoughts and build different habits that reduce anxiety and improve mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, needs, and preferences, and suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process that can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and learning new skills together. Phone sessions take less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text-based messaging let people check in between sessions or touch base without scheduling a full appointment. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
