About me
Do you find yourself struggling with navigating the challenges of life with the need to escape? Addiction and avoidance are two very common mechanisms used in today’s world to deal with the crushing weight of life. Trust me, I get it. I have walked my own journey out of addiction into sobriety. It is a lifelong process that I embrace. It’s not just about breaking free from substances, but also achieving emotional sobriety. Time is a luxury many of us don’t feel that we have and we are constantly looking for the “quick fix,” but life has other plans. If you are looking beyond a “band aid solution” to living a better life today you’ve come to the right place. I’ve been there. I may be a therapist, but I’m a human first. A person just like you. Would you like to accept the invitation to enter into this journey of healing together? To go from surviving to learning how to thrive? To learn to unapologetically love yourself again, or maybe for the first time ever? You’re worth it. It’s your time to make yourself a priority.
I love working with people that are sick and tired of being sick and tired. The people that are ready to come in and take the mask off to embrace the healing process. Empowering people to be the best version of themselves is my primary focus. I may be the professional in the therapeutic relationship, but you are the expert. This is your life; it’s time to start living.

A refreshing approach filtered through biblical views. Briana is very easy to talk to and she really gets me. Dosen't say what you want to hear but what you need to hear, able to have the hard conversations without feeling bad or sad.

I’m working through issues that I’ve been avoiding for months and didn’t know where to turn next, until I joined BetterHelp, I am thankful for this experience and I’ve only had two visits so far!
