Brianna has an M.Ed. in Professional Counseling from Lynchburg College and has been a licensed therapist since June 2020. She has a variety of experience working with families, children, addiction, mental illnesses, and trauma. She provides individual counseling to adults across Virginia, helping clients manage depression, anxiety, trauma, and a variety of relationship issues. She has experience working with children and teenagers as well, but thoroughly enjoys working with an adult population. She utilizes CBT, TF-CBT, Motivational Interviewing, and
Solution-focused modalities.
Brianna also utilizes cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and solution-focused therapy to encourage clients to process their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to implement necessary changes. By utilizing these strategies and offering a compassionate and safe place to explore, clients will be empowered with new tools and strength to overcome.
Going to therapy can be a scary and an uncomfortable decision, but it can also be a life-changing one. At times, it is refreshing to have an objective, nonjudgemental perspective on our emotions, relationships, and/or life’s circumstances. We all go through the twists and turns of life and need a safe place to process, feel heard, be validated, and potentially be motivated for change. Therapy is a place full of empathy and compassion, and it is also a place that will help you see your courage and strength. Brianna would be honored to walk alongside of you during your journey!
