As a Christian licensed mental health therapist, I specialize in helping clients through the challenges of PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), anxiety, addictions, depression, and relationship issues. Are you feeling disconnected from God? Do you struggle with everyday interactions in your relationships? Do you feel like you are always trying to meet everyone else's expectations? I will help you find peace where you can have a rich experience in your relationship with God, with others, and with yourself. Think of it this way... Whatever relationship you have with yourself is what you project onto all your other relationships.

Hi there! My name is Briana and I am here to support you through various challenges and transitions. We can oftentimes feel frustrated, stuck, or anxious - whether this be as a spouse, parent, employee, or just feeling overwhelmed as a human in general. We can all experience getting to a place where we feel completely numb & just trying to survive. You might feel like a hamster running on its wheel, feeling completely stuck and going nowhere, unsure of what to do differently. Maybe you're trying to heal on your own from the things that you never talk about, and are in need of someone who can listen & validate your emotions.

One of the things life has taught me is to not believe everything you think because our mind can really play tricks on us. There is hope even when you think there is none. There are solutions even when you cannot see them, because you have more power than you know.

I believe that clients have the innate ability to heal through accessing their innermost selves. Each client is traveling their own personal, interpersonal, and spiritual path and I act as a guide to help facilitate and co- create healing and wholeness. Through healing old wounds, past traumas, and solving relationship conflicts, I aspire to help individuals, couples, and families reach their highest potentials to aid in having richer and more fulfilling lives. My approach is Transpersonal, which means that I look beyond the ego into the spiritual to encourage wholeness in each client.
