Hi! I am Mira Brady, a National Board Certified Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been a high school counselor for 9 years, and a Licensed Counselor . I am a graduate of Prairie View A & M University, and I earned my Masters in Counseling and a Masters in Educational Administration. I have experience working with individuals and adolescents. I have worked with clients dealing with anxiety, depression, family dysfunction, mental health issues, and so much more. Everyone deserves the right to a happy and healthy quality of life. As an educator for over 20 years, I possess a deep understanding of human behavior and emotional dynamics, coupled with strong communication and empathy skills, making me well-equipped to provide effective therapy and support to individuals in need.

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

In our first session, we will talk about what your goals for therapy and what you wish to take from it. Your goals will become our GPS destination. We will also discuss some of your current challenges, mental health history, and what being happy looks like for you. We will work together to navigate to a healthier "you". Understanding your desire will assist me in creating a personalized approach at you achieving your target.

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

My strength as a therapist includes utilizing evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. CBT works to "retrain" your brain by identifying negative thinking patterns and finding ways to have more positive thoughts. I also implement Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach my clients mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal skills. Implementing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy allows my clients to accept their thoughts and emptions as opposed to trying to deny or avoid them. Then, the committed action includes taking steps that will algin with your values and lead to positive change. I also have clients that benefit from Solution Focused Based. I have clients that want to achieve specific goals and they need help attaining them and need a support system for accountability.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a type of therapy that can help my clients identify and challenge negative thought patterns. It can help my clients think in a more positive manner and develop strategies to improve the quality of life.

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

I use ACT to help individuals become more aware of their thoughts and feelings in addition to understanding how the thoughts influence their behavior. It really increases self-awareness, improves relationships, and reduces suffering. ACT is a powerful approach and allows you to accept what you cannot change.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is type of therapy that helps my clients manage their emotions, cope with challenges, and improve relationships. It helps with mindfulness, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and emotional regulation. My clients are able to identify and put a name to their emotions to increase their awareness of why you feel the way they do. We also work to identify triggers and reduce stress around those triggers by using healthy coping strategies.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution Focused Brief Therapy is useful for my clients experiencing depression, anxiety, and self-esteem issues. It is also great for my clients that have a specific goal in mind and need assistance meeting it. It can decrease marital issues, marital burnout, and reduce internalizing behavioral problems.
