Areas of Focus
-
I am deeply committed to providing LGBTQ+ affirming therapy.
Whether you identify as LGBTQ+, questioning, or are simply exploring who you are, how you understand yourself, and where you belong. This is a space to untangle identity without pressure to arrive anywhere specific.
-
For minds that don’t ever really turn off. Together, we slow the spiral, explore what your thoughts are trying to protect you from, and build a more compassionate relationship with your inner world.
-
For those whose emotions feel intense, overwhelming, or suffocating. We focus on nervous system awareness, grounding, and learning how to stay with big feelings without drowning.
-
For those with quiet, heavy beliefs that you are “too much,” “not enough,” or fundamentally broken. We gently examine where shame took root and work toward self-understanding that’s kinder, truer, and less punishing.
-
When worth feels tied to achievement, productivity, or keeping others happy. We’ll work on interrupting those patterns, reconnecting with your own needs, and practicing showing up without needing to earn your place.
-
Grief doesn’t follow a timeline and it doesn’t always look the way people expect (nope, not even the popular “5 stages of grief” are linear) . This space holds both obvious losses and the quieter ones, honoring what’s been lost while supporting you as life continues to move.
-
Whether you’re here for individual or relationship counseling, we can explore patterns in communication, conflict, attachment, boundaries, and repair. We’ll pay attention to how you show up in relationship and what becomes possible when safety and honesty grow.
-
Maybe you’re starting school, a new job, or a new relationship. Or maybe you’re moving in with someone new, becoming a parent for the first time, or creating a blended family. No matter what is starting, ending, or changing, therapy offers space to orient yourself, make meaning, and move through change with more steadiness and self-trust.
Let’s take the next step, togetherHi there, I’m Breanna!
Meet Breanna
I’m a thoughtful, down-to-earth therapist who values authenticity, curiosity, and honest connection.
I bring warmth, curiosity, and care into the room, and I believe therapy works best when you feel seen as a whole human and not a problem to be fixed.
Creating a space where you don’t have to perform or have it all figured out matters a great deal to me.
I take this work seriously, without taking myself too seriously.
I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
