Greetings! My name is Brandais and I have been working as a therapist for 11 years. I provide a practical, safe, and warm space for you to work through your problems. I enjoy helping clients to feel safe, empowered and to find solutions or heal from past traumas that plague them. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you soon.
Your first session with me will be relaxed and we will just get to know each other! I will listen to you and allow you to share whatever you feel comfortable sharing without judgement and with empathy. We will work together to come up with some tools or a plan to help you work through your problems and find solutions. I hope that after your first session you can leave feeling seen, heard and empowered.
I like to use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (change the way you think, change the way you act), person-centered therapy (you are the expert in your story), and mindfulness (being present and stress reduction) during sessions. I will always allow for you to dictate what feels comfortable and will try to work with you to find practical solutions.
My ideal client is someone trying to figure our life's challenges to create positive, lasting change. Whether you're experiencing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship concerns, life transitions, or simply feeling overwhelmed, I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where we can work together toward your goals. I believe therapy should be collaborative, personalized, and focused and most importantly practical! Let's work together to overcome your challenges.
I like using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) which basically means change what you think to change how you feel. I am a practical person and I enjoy being able to give you practical and helpful solutions for your life to help you work throught your problems.
I believe you are the expert in your experience and I want you to lead your treatment!
I like to use mindfulness techniques to help you remain present and be able to reduce anxiety and stress within your body.
