About Darla

Darla Roundtree, LCSW, brings ten years of social work experience to her Tennessee practice, offering compassionate, strengths-based support for people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and intimacy-related concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes presence and attentive listening, helping clients name their goals and take practical steps toward change while honoring their existing resources and resilience. Her approach blends evidence-informed methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with attachment-focused and client-centered techniques to explore patterns, emotions, and interpersonal dynamics.

Darla aims to provide nonjudgmental feedback and collaborative guidance, working with each person to clarify values and develop skills for coping with life transitions, parenting strains, anger, career difficulties, ADHD, and other areas of concern. Clients can expect a professional who prioritizes attunement and practical strategies, and who frames growth as accessible and achievable.

Darla accepts international clients and offers multiple remote session formats to increase convenience for those seeking support across a range of mental health and life challenges.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Remote Support

Many clients benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and stressful situations. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape emotions and behavior, helping people improve connection, trust, and communication in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes an empathetic, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship where the therapist supports clients in exploring their values and finding their own solutions.

Finding the right approach often unfolds together. The therapist collaborates with each client to assess needs, goals, and preferences, and may combine elements from these methods to tailor the work. This collaborative process helps determine which strategies feel most useful and sustainable for the individual.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people juggling work, caregiving, or geographic constraints. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, fit sessions into varied schedules, and access licensed professionals from different locations, while still focusing on skill-building, emotional processing, and practical problem solving.
