Great to meet you!

Hi there! I'm Breanna, a Licensed Professional Counselor for the past two years. I have been working as a therapist for almost five years total. My educational background is specifically in counseling, psychology, and neuroscience. I'm also someone who loves anything cozy and comforting so don't be surprised if you see my favorite books in the background or my sweet cat make an appearance.

My approach to therapy

I will take an individualized approach with you and work with a lens that is compassionate, holistic, trauma-informed, and rooted in evidence-based practices. My hope is to provide a space where you can feel safe, heard, and connected.

I primarily work with people who are struggling to regulate their emotions, have trauma history, substance use history, or difficulties navigating their neurodivergence. With any of the difficulties you may be facing, I aim to aid you in increasing your sense-of-self, including insight, awareness, and resiliency.

What you can expect from me

In your first session we will review what has brought you to therapy and any other relevant background information, and establish a treatment plan with your goals for therapy. From there I will take an individualized approach to treatment based on your needs. The types of treatment I can provide are CBT, DBT or EMDR to help you better understand your thoughts and emotions, and process trauma.
