Briana Talarico

Hi, I’m Briana Talarico (she/her), a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience supporting teens, adults, and families through life’s transitions, identity exploration, and healing. I offer a compassionate, affirming space where you can show up as your full self—no need to mask or shrink. My practice is grounded in social justice, neurodivergence-affirming care, and a deep belief in your right to live authentically. Whether you're navigating anxiety, gender identity, trauma, or just need someone in your corner, I'm here to walk with you.

My approach to therapy is grounded in systems theory—I believe we’re all shaped by the relationships, environments, and identities we move through. I work holistically, honoring the complex intersections of your lived experience, culture, and community. I draw from trauma-informed, attachment-based, and narrative frameworks to help you feel seen, supported, and empowered. Therapy with me is collaborative, affirming, and always centered on your values and goals.

Clients can expect to leave a session with me feeling seen, supported, and grounded in their truth. Whether we’re exploring identity, processing trauma, or building practical coping tools, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to be real and curious. You’ll walk away with deeper insight, new strategies, and—if you're seeking it—a clearer sense of direction. You don’t have to do this alone, and together, we’ll figure out what healing looks like for you.
