Brandi Geddings , LCMHC

Brandi Geddings is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and challenges around parenting and family life. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and struggles with self-esteem and relationships. Brandi aims to meet people where they are with empathy and straightforward conversation.

Her style is relaxed and practical. She focuses on building strong rapport, listening without judgment, and working collaboratively. Brandi uses plain language rather than clinical terms and keeps goals realistic and useful for day-to-day life.

Brandi blends several approaches to suit each person’s needs. She draws on client-centered listening, cognitive behavioral ideas, dialectical skills, acceptance strategies, and existential perspectives. Sessions often include skill-building, problem-solving, and mindfulness practices tailored to the individual.

She emphasizes strengths and practical coping tools. That can look like working on thought patterns, improving communication, addressing family dynamics, or developing routines for ADHD and mood management. Brandi avoids overly complex interventions and prefers helpful, clear steps that fit a person’s current life.

Her background includes seven years of clinical experience in outpatient settings. She has worked with a wide age range and across different community settings. Brandi encourages open dialogue about what is and isn’t working so adjustments can be made as therapy progresses.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and take committed steps toward what matters. Online ACT sessions often include value clarification and practical exercises to use between sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. In an online CBT session, clients and the therapist may review thought records, plan behavioral experiments, and practice skills together. Client-centered therapy emphasizes being heard and understood with empathy and unconditional positive regard; that approach helps people process feelings and build self-trust through reflective conversation.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Decisions about which methods to try are made together and can change as needs evolve.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or work better when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins, writing-focused reflection, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a busy life while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.
