About Edward
Edward Breedlove is a licensed professional counselor in Tennessee with six years of full-time mental health counseling experience. He brings a background in Christian ministry that informs his outlook and how he relates to people. Edward focuses on practical help for stress, anxiety, addictions, relationships, intimacy-related issues, trauma, and life changes.
He uses attachment-informed ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns. He also draws on client-centered listening and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to focus on clear steps clients can try between meetings. Edward also works with concerns like obsessive or compulsive behaviors, process addictions such as gambling or problematic pornography use, sex addiction, fatherhood issues, guilt and shame, and struggles with communication.
He helps people who are trying to repair or rebuild trust after infidelity and those seeking a clearer sense of life purpose or direction. In the room he describes his role as a process consultant - someone who listens, offers reflections, and helps create a plan. That often means setting small goals, practicing new ways of relating, and tracking progress over time.
His approach aims to combine practical tools with attention to emotional patterns. Edward practices as an LPC-MHSP, which stands for Licensed Professional Counselor - Mental Health Service Provider. He provides services in Tennessee and conducts sessions in English.

Online support
Attachment-informed care and online sessions
Edward uses attachment-based ideas to notice how earlier relationships shape current patterns of relating. This approach looks at emotional needs, how people seek closeness or distance, and how those patterns show up in stress, intimacy, and trust issues. It can be useful when someone wants to understand why they repeat certain relational habits and try new ways of connecting.He also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on active listening and reflecting what the person brings. That approach helps people feel heard and clarify what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes that reduce anxiety or compulsive responses.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Edward works with clients to pick methods that match their goals and comfort level, and he adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. He frames himself as a process consultant, offering practical tools alongside emotional exploration.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule sessions around work, travel, and parenting demands.
