About Mindy
Mindy Hopper is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma, and parenting concerns. She works from the belief that each person knows their own story and brings strengths to handle hard moments. Her approach is practical and warm, aimed at helping people take manageable steps forward.
In sessions she listens first and follows the client’s lead. She uses straightforward tools to reduce worry, manage overwhelming thoughts, and address trauma responses.
Background and approach
Mindy blends concrete strategies with space to feel and reflect so clients can practice new ways of coping between meetings. Parents who are tired, overwhelmed, or uncertain about next steps often find practical help here. She helps people sort priorities, improve communication, and build routines that reduce daily strain.
Mindy also supports those facing grief, career shifts, or compassion fatigue from caregiving or demanding work. Her work draws on a mix of client-centered conversation, problem-focused plans, mindfulness skills, and trauma-informed practices. That lets her tailor sessions to what a person needs in the moment - whether that’s a short skills session or deeper processing over time.
Mindy is based in Tennessee and offers sessions in English. She encourages people to honor the courage it takes to begin therapy and helps them turn small changes into steady progress.

How Mindy Uses Approaches Online
Mindy commonly brings together client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques in sessions. Client-centered work means she starts by listening and follows what matters most to the person, building from their strengths. Cognitive behavioral techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety, panic, and mood shifts.She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help people notice stress and calm their nervous system. Mindfulness exercises are short and practical, useful for reducing reactivity and improving focus during overwhelming moments. Together these approaches give both reflective space and clear tools to practice between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and she treats it as a collaboration. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then adapt methods over time to match progress and changing needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and more in-depth work. Phone calls can fit into a busy day or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, practice prompts, or when someone prefers typed conversation. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow consistent contact around life demands.
