Welcome to Brianda Psychotherapy Services,
I believe that healing is a journey as unique as each individual who walks through my doors. As a highly regarded psychotherapist specializing in trauma therapy, I am dedicated to providing a safe, inclusive space where your personal growth and emotional well-being are prioritized. With advanced degrees and certifications in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic therapy, depth psychotherapy, and sand play, my multifaceted approach integrates the latest research with compassionate care.
What sets my therapeutic approach apart is my commitment to personalized, holistic treatment. I understand that trauma manifests differently in each person, and I tailor my methods to address the root of your experiences, not just the symptoms. By blending traditional talk therapy with expressive modalities like sand play, I invite clients to explore and communicate their emotions in creative ways. Additionally, my expertise in somatic therapy allows me to guide you in reconnecting with your body, recognizing that true healing encompasses both mind and spirit.
I also offer individual therapy and sex therapy, recognizing that our intimate relationships and personal identities are central to our overall well-being. My aim is to help you cultivate a sense of agency and empowerment in all aspects of your life, ensuring that therapy becomes a springboard for lasting change.
Mission Statement
My mission is to provide a compassionate and respectful therapeutic environment that fosters healing, growth, and self-discovery. Guided by evidence-based practices and a commitment to ethical standards, I strive to empower individuals to overcome their challenges, embrace their authenticity, and build fulfilling lives rooted in resilience and connection. Together, we will embark on a transformative journey toward healing and self-actualization.
Your journey is unique, and so are the solutions we will explore together. I look forward to being a part of your healing process.
