Darla Roundtree, LCSW

Darla Roundtree is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Tennessee. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship and parenting concerns. She also supports people facing grief, caregiving strain, career crossroads, and the challenges of living with health conditions. Her approach emphasizes listening and steady presence as a starting point for change.

Darla draws on a mix of therapy styles to match what each person needs. She centers sessions on the person in front of her and works to notice strengths that often get overlooked. Conversations focus on concrete steps people can try between sessions and on building skills to manage intense emotions and conflict.

Clients can expect a calm, nonjudgmental atmosphere where feelings are named and responses are practiced. Darla pays attention to attachment patterns and helps people understand how early relationships affect current ones. She also uses clearer, practical tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to reframe thoughts and reduce distress.

With ten years as a social worker, she brings experience helping people through major life transitions such as separation, adoption and foster care issues, or caregiving stress. Her work includes supporting LGBT concerns, body image struggles, and people coping with chronic illness or cancer-related stress.

Her style is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions aim to create small, steady changes that fit into everyday life. People who want to clarify values, repair communication, or build emotion regulation skills may find her approach useful.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Darla often blends attachment-based work with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people cope with life stressors. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people change unhelpful interaction cycles. Client-centered work focuses on listening closely and following the person's goals to build insight and confidence. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical ways to notice and shift thoughts and behaviors that maintain anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Darla aims to collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their needs and goals. That choice can shift over time as people try skills, notice what helps, and adjust the plan together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by avoiding travel and allowing appointments from wherever the person is located. Because specific session formats are not listed here, confirm the available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful for shorter check-ins, consistent weekly work, or when they need flexibility to schedule around caregiving, medical appointments, or work breaks.
