A Little About Me
A space grounded in empathy, trust, and acceptance.
Everyone has the capacity for growth and healing, and therapy can make room for that process to unfold at your pace.
As a person-centered therapist, my approach is grounded in empathy, understanding, and genuine respect for each individual’s unique journey. I work collaboratively with clients to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where they can explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
I believe the therapeutic relationship can be a powerful tool for transformation. By fostering trust and acceptance, I aim to support clients in gaining insight into emotional challenges, building coping skills, and developing deeper connections with themselves and others.
My approach supports teens and adults across the lifespan and takes culture into account. I am committed to walking alongside my clients, honoring their individuality, and empowering them to take steps toward greater peace, fulfillment, healing, and growth at their own pace.
— BreannaWho I Work With
We might be a good fit if you are navigating…
You do not need to fit neatly into one category. These are some of the experiences I frequently support, and we will make space for the full context of what is happening in your life.
Anxiety & stress
Persistent worry, racing thoughts, tension, or feeling overwhelmed by what is happening around you.
Depression
Feeling low, disconnected, unmotivated, or unlike yourself.
ADHD
Navigating attention, organization, emotional regulation, or patterns that make daily life feel harder.
Autism & masking
Exploring identity, needs, and ways of moving through the world with greater clarity and self-trust.
Boundaries
Understanding your needs and developing clearer, healthier ways to communicate them.
Life transitions
Adjusting to change, uncertainty, new roles, or a season that no longer feels familiar.
Relationships
Working through disconnection, recurring tension, or difficulty expressing what you need as an individual or couple.
Identity
A supportive space to explore identity, culture, relationships, and the experiences shaping how you see yourself.
What Therapy With Me Feels Like
Therapy shaped around your experiences, culture, and pace.
I believe you bring important knowledge about your own life into the therapy room. We will work collaboratively to understand what you are experiencing and identify support that feels useful and respectful.
You will be met with empathy, acceptance, and genuine respect for your individuality throughout our work together.
Person-Centered Therapy
Your experiences, needs, culture, and goals help guide the work. Therapy is collaborative and grounded in empathy, acceptance, and trust.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
We can explore how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors connect while building practical tools for responding to difficult patterns.
Internal Family Systems
We can approach protective patterns with curiosity and understand the different responses that may show up during stress or change.

Finding the right therapist is personal. These answers offer another glimpse into my style, priorities, and the kind of space I hope to create.
You never need perfect words or a fully formed goal before beginning therapy.

I work with teens, adults, older adults, individuals, and couples. I support concerns including depression, anxiety, ADHD, autism, identity, boundaries, life transitions, and relationships.
How does culture fit into your approach?
Culture can shape how we understand ourselves, our relationships, and the challenges we face. I aim to approach each client’s cultural background and lived experience with genuine respect, openness, and care.
What can I expect from therapy with you?
You can expect a relationship built on trust, acceptance, and collaboration. We may focus on gaining insight into emotional challenges, building coping skills, and creating deeper connections with yourself and others.
What do you hope clients take away from therapy?
My goal is to help clients develop useful tools, find greater peace and fulfillment, and feel empowered to take meaningful steps toward healing and growth at their own pace.
