Do you feel like you have talked through everything but still don't feel better? Are you a motivated client or couple looking to shift patterns no longer serving you? I enjoy meeting clients in this space of healing, utilizing EMDR to help shift prior trauma, negative beliefs, anxieties and more. I encourage you to reach out, and explore through a free consultation how a holistic approach to healing may help you. Taking a more body focused and holistic approach to healing can lead to a more comprehensive and long lasting healing. I enjoy working with teens up through adults, individuals and couples from an attachment based lens.

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.

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.

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 help anxious people-pleasers stop spiraling and reconnect with themselves. My clients struggle like you do. Despite being intelligent and capable women, life is hard. When they first come in, they feel overwhelmed and like there’s a battle going on inside themselves every day. They believe they are failing everyone around them because they can’t “do it all” the way others can. They want to set boundaries and tell people “no” but there’s a part of them that is afraid to do that. They lie awake at night ruminating about every mistake they made that day and worrying about everything that has to get done tomorrow.

I specialize in Trauma/EMDR and Codependency/Attachment issues, seeing both couples and individuals. Trauma (i.e. repressed emotion and negative self-belief) manifests in psychological, emotional, and behavioral patterns that can be incredibly distressing. I've seen this poison relationships, where it presents as codependency, infidelity, addiction, and emotional neglect. In individuals it shows up as disordered eating/eating disorders (body dysmorphia, binge eating disorder, anorexia), OCD/anxiety, depression/anger issues, CPTSD, substance abuse disorders, and mood disorders. We'll start with the most distressing problem first!
