Are you feeling lost or alone? Do you struggle with emotions of sadness, anxiety, or grief? Have you been physically or sexually abused or a victim of domestic violence? Maybe, you're feeling stuck or are struggling with a life transition and don't know where to turn? It can be hard to ask for help, but a little help is often what we need in order to connect with our own inner capacity to cope and heal. I have experience helping children, adolescents, adults, and the elderly to manage life's difficulties and work toward health, happiness, and acceptance.

Anxiety, depression, trauma, interpersonal struggles, and life transitions are just some of the issues we face daily that can hold us back from reaching our goals and our true selves. Children, teens, and young adults are exposed early on to enormous amounts of pressure like bullying, mood and behavior changes, and self esteem concerns. I am passionate about helping children, adolescents, and adults jump off the merry-go-round they're trapped on and create new, positive, and healthy ways to cope with life's unpredictable twists and turns or even feeling stuck in the same old. Allow me to understand you and ensure you have a voice.

Anxiety is everywhere these days. We're all making our way through a sea of unknowns, and our children are along for the ride. I believe that YOU, a parent or caregiver, have been doing the very best that you can for your child. I also know that with limited resources, a lack of external support or your own mental health strain, supporting a struggling child often feels impossible. If you’ve exhausted a list of ideas to help your child with little progress, let me join you. Together we can redistribute that emotional weight you’re carrying and give your child a big wide space to heal and grow.

I work with individuals, couples, and families who have experienced trauma as well as concerns related to depression, loss and grief, and anxiety. As a clinician, I hold safety as a non-negotiable imperative for the therapy space to be productive. I also encourage my clients to use the safe therapy space to lean into the discomfort required to make the changes that they wish to see in their lives.

Not accepting new clients at this time. It is my professional and personal belief that individuals do not heal in an environment of shame and guilt. For this reason, I strive to create a non-judgmental atmosphere where clients feel safe to discuss their issues in an open and productive way. My specialty areas are substance use disorders (addictions) and trauma. Guilt and shame are two feelings that are frequently felt by those who struggle with addictive issues, and for those who have experienced trauma. My goal is to help clients and their families understand their issues and work toward a better life.

I'm Vania Brister, and I've come to realize that this field found me, shaping my path in ways I couldn't have predicted. From childhood, I embraced my quiet nature, despite enduring teasing and shame for it. But through those experiences, I learned something invaluable: the power of listening. Being a quiet observer taught me that great listening requires silence, and the ability to understand and support others became my superpower. It brought me joy to be a source of support for family, friends, and even strangers. In my practice, I aim to create a safe haven where individuals and families can express themselves freely.

It's wonderful you are taking the time to poke around and find a therapist that will be a fit for you. Honestly this may be one of the most important pieces in the whole process of therapy - that you and the therapist 'click' and are able to co-create a trusting, collaborative relationship. My hope is that our work together brings more groundedness and balance into your life. And this journey looks different for each of us. It’s an active process, discovering unhelpful patterns of physical sensation-emotion-thought reactivity and then co-creating mindful, body-based practices that draw on your inner strengths and facilitate healing

Although we cannot change our past, we can acknowledge its impact and change how we view it and ourselves. While working with clients, I encourage expression to gain self-awareness and to reshape narratives. Expression is essential in everyday life, especially when working through difficult times, such as grief and trauma. I practice therapy with a person-centered, trauma-informed, strength based approach to meet clients where they are and to help them make changes to start the healing process. As an Art Therapist, I have the ability to bring artmaking into the therapy session and to help facilitate the healing process.
