About me

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have been in private practice for the past two years. However, my clinical experience goes far beyond that. I have worked in an inpatient setting, as well as along side of victims of domestic abuse. I love working with teen and women specifically. I have done a good bit of family therapy as well as crisis intervention in my previous clinical work. I feel passionate about empowering my clients and meeting them where they are in their journey toward meeting their own personal goals.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In the first session I gather a good bit of information as this will set the course for our work together in the coming weeks or months ahead. I also allow for time for the client to ask me questions so that they can feel more comfortable and engaged in the process.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Meeting the client where they are is critical and I believe I do this well which leads to good rapport with clients. I also view most clinical situations from a family systems perspective and utilize that as a tool for change in areas that the client has identified as a goal for improvement.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I love working with teenagers as they prepare to launch into the world whether through attending college or pursuing employment and independence outside of their home. I also love working with women in various stages of life.

My treatment methods

Christian Counseling

For clients that wish to incorporate their faith into counseling, I am happy to assist them. I find this to be a valuable asset to counseling and for the long term success of counseling.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

CBT is the primary framework I utilize with clients. There is significant impact of thought reframing and the in ack this impacts behavior. This helps clients to feel empowered to take control over their emotions and goals.

I felt very comfortable talking with Brandy. She seemed very knowledgable, yet I didn’t feel like it was an assessment. I felt like she genuinely was trying to get to know me.
