About Edward
Edward Breedlove is a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee. He holds the LPC-MHSP credential and brings six years of full-time mental health counseling experience alongside a longer background in Christian ministry. He focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life changes.
Edward centers his work on Client-Centered Therapy, meaning he treats each person as the expert on their own life and follows their lead in sessions. He also draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive-behavioral tools when they fit the client’s goals. Sessions emphasize clear steps and honest conversation rather than jargon.
He helps people address specific problems like obsessive-compulsive behaviors, process and sex addictions, and infidelity. He also supports men navigating fatherhood, communication struggles, guilt and shame, and finding life purpose. The focus is on steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Edward describes his role as a process consultant who points out patterns and options. He works with clients on rebuilding connection and improving communication using techniques from Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when those approaches match the need.
People who choose him can expect a direct, compassionate style that values practical strategies and the client’s own strengths. His background in ministry often informs the way he listens and holds difficult conversations. He asks questions, reflects what he hears, and helps design steps clients can try between sessions.
How these approaches work in online care
Edward practices Client-Centered Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when helpful. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s priorities so sessions feel driven by what matters most to the person. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice and change interaction habits that cause distance or conflict. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to test new ways of responding.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Edward will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there he suggests approaches to try and adjusts them as progress is made, so the plan changes with real feedback from the client.
