About Edward
Edward Breedlove is a Licensed Professional Counselor-MHSP in Tennessee with six years in full-time mental health counseling and a prior 25 years in Christian ministry. He helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, trauma and abuse, career questions, and major life changes.
He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside attachment-based and client-centered approaches. In sessions he focuses on emotions and the patterns they create in relationships. He pays attention to attachment concerns, communication difficulties, and issues that often appear for men, including fatherhood questions and guilt or shame.
His work also addresses unwanted sexual behaviors, process and sex addictions, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method when those tools fit the concern and goals. Conversations tend to be practical and focused on what people notice in their relationships and daily life.
Edward describes his role as a process consultant who helps people identify strengths they already have. He aims to help clients name feelings, notice patterns, and try new ways of relating. Sessions often include talking through recent events, testing small changes, and checking what shifts for the person over time.

How Edward combines EFT and attachment work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with strong emotions that shape relationship patterns. It helps people name difficult feelings and notice how those feelings affect interactions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns people form around closeness and safety in relationships, and it can help with communication and trust issues.Edward also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the client's priorities and perspectives and supports self-directed problem solving. Together these approaches are used collaboratively - the therapist and client discuss goals and decide which methods feel most useful as work progresses.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as session delivery is not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find that working by video helps them practice relational conversations in a real-world context, while phone or other options can be handy for quick follow-ups or lower bandwidth situations. The therapist will help choose a format that fits the client's schedule, goals, and comfort.
