(she/her)
Hello! My name is Briauna and I have a diverse clinical background spanning over 9 years. I have showcased my expertise in various domains, notably in critical care, which has lead to my decision to become a dedicated provider. I am both a family nurse practitioner and a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. Prior to Grow Therapy, I have provided invaluable assistance to patients in psychiatric crisis in both the emergency and urgent care settings. These experiences have given me profound insight into the intricate interplay between one’s mental health and physical well-being.
I utilize evidence-based practices tailored to foster healing and resilience among her clients. Our sessions will be aimed to empower individuals to achieve greater emotional balance and enhanced overall mental health. This approach is marked by empathy, respect, and a commitment to meet the unique needs of each individual, offering support that is both accessible and of the highest quality. I champion the idea that mental health is as vital as physical health, advocating for destigmatization and increased awareness to ensure that more people recognize the importance of seeking help.
My extensive exposure to different mental health environments has not only enriched my understanding but also honed my ability to adeptly respond to the distinctive needs of each group. My passion for mental health was ignited by a fascination with human behavior and the complexities of the mind, leading me to commit my career to understanding and treating mental health conditions with an emphasis on the criticality of early intervention.

She was very warm, comforting, and funny. I was anxious at first, but she made me feel so comfortable.

Already was sold with the first session! She's so sweet and actually listens to me and has the best attitude out of any of my psychiatrists!

Life changing. Briauna is the exact right person for me at a time when I really really needed help. I could not more highly recommend Briauna!
