I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a proud Texan with 10 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session, I will provide every client an introduction to include the following; an introduction of who I am, what they can expect from therapy with me as their therapist, best practices for using the platform, and review the informed consent and confidentiality policies. I will also answer any questions to ensure the client feels at ease with starting therapy. Once the session begins, I will ask the client where they would like to start. I will complete an intake while getting to know about what brought the client to therapy.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I believe my client say it best: Per client reviews: "Compassion Empathy Kindness and Understanding don’t even begin to explain how good Brandy has been to me and my mental health. She’s helped me find reasons to keep going and I’ll be forever thankful to her." "Brandy had been the first therapist who not only has fully understood what I am going through, but helped guide me in a proper way to learn and grow. She has always given me so much to think about, so much to consider, and every session I feel more in tune with who I am as a person, and what I can do to move forward in so many better ways. I have highly appreciated her kindness and patience as I work through things, and I always look forward to my sessions with her." "She has great listening skills and provides personal tools to continue to improve self." "I treasure every session I have with Brandy. She’s non judgmental and I feel completely at ease to share all my concerns with her. Just the way she reframes my own thoughts is so helpful."

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

It is important to help clients understand thought patterns that might cause them increased amounts of stress and anxiety. In CBT, clients learn to identify and challenge their negative or distorted thought patterns, known as cognitive distortions. I help clients recognize these patterns and replace them with more realistic and balanced thoughts by teaching clients how to put their thoughts on trial.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution-focused therapy involves a strengths-based, goal-oriented approach that empowers clients to build on their existing resources and create positive change in their lives, often in a relatively short period of time. I encourage every client to celebrate their daily victories and to identify their strengths.
