02 · In Brianna's own words

What Brianna says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

Have you found yourself at a cross roads- feeling like you can't stay where you are but you don't know where to go from here? Are you tired of swinging from one extreme to another? Are you trying to maintain the picture of perfection while inside you feel overwhelmed and anxious? Are you looking for balance in your life? Are you battling with inconsistent behaviors, overwhelming emotions, trauma, food, or body image? To change your life, your next step is to take a "bold crossing" - to make a decision to move and I can help you through the journey.

I create a nurturing environment to provide you with a safe space to explore and create the changes you want in your life. I help clients: seek balance while learning healthy ways of coping with anxiety, trauma, depression. I also help clients learn how to love their body, food, and movement. Taking care of our bodies is the foundation for emotional health.

I counsel from a Christian perspective but having worked in a secular setting for many years, I can integrate faith according to your comfort level. Clinically I take a systemic approach and I incorporate solutions focused, DBT skills, wellness practices, and feedback informed interventions.

03 · How Brianna works

The 3 approaches Brianna lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Brianna lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Brianna's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Brianna runs a session.

Dialectical Behaviour TherapyDBT

A structured skills-led adaptation of CBT built around holding two things at once: accepting yourself as you are and working to change. Teaches concrete skills for distress tolerance, emotion regulation and relationships. Developed for people whose feelings arrive at overwhelming intensity, and strongest-evidenced there.

Solution-Focused Brief TherapySFBT

Starts from where you want to end up rather than from how you got here. Sessions look for the times the problem is already smaller and work out what is different about those, so the number of sessions tends to be short and the work concrete.

Trauma-Focused TherapyTF-CBT · trauma-informed

CBT adapted for people whose difficulty is rooted in a frightening or overwhelming event. Pacing is the point: safety and stabilisation come first, the memory itself is approached gradually and only when you are ready, and the aim is that recalling it stops hijacking the present.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Brianna practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Brianna's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Brianna at this point.

2. Naming Brianna specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Brianna is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Brianna.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

3 questions worth asking Brianna

Built from what Brianna actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Brianna's - Brianna has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

  Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Brianna's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Brianna. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
