Welcome! It's a big step to seek out counseling, and I want to share about my experience so you can decide whether I might be a good match for your counseling needs. I am available for counseling by text, chat, video, and phone. At this time I am offering live sessions on weekend mornings (until 12pm Eastern time) and messaging at anytime. I have a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Seattle, following a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Florida, with a minor in Women's Studies and Gender Issues. I have been working in the field since 2003 in a variety of settings -- ranging from inpatient, mobile crisis, and triage to community-based counseling, home-based counseling, residential, and telehealth; with children, adolescents, adults, and families. My passion lies in working with clients to uncover their true identity -- who they really are and who they can become once the severity of depression, anxiety, and trauma have been processed and alleviated. I approach therapy from a strengths-based, client-centered perspective, offering every client unconditional positive regard, respect, encouragement, and hope. Some of the tools I use include CBT, Trauma-Focused CBT, knowledge of family systems and intergenerational trauma, communication skills, and mindfulness. Also, I believe that humor in therapy is seriously underrated... We are a team, and my goal is to help you achieve your goals. My hope is for you to bring your whole self to therapy so that we can work together to help you be as whole as you can be. Let's do this.

Hi, I’m Bre, preferred pronouns she/they. I am a licensed professional counselor in California and Oregon, with over eight years of experience. I have worked with individuals of all ages, with different backgrounds, and across a wide variety of settings. Within sessions, I take a humanistic approach while remaining rooted in mindfulness. From receiving a Master of Arts in Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology from Naropa University, to completing a 500 Hour Holistic Yoga Teacher Training with Adi Yogpeeth, I have gained a variety of skills in order to show up fully for others. I remain an active participant in deepening my self-awareness through ongoing therapy, yoga, and meditation as these practices aid in my self-discovery of inherent compassion so that I'm able to guide others with humility and grace. Diversity and inclusion are crucial for me in my personal life, and in my career as a therapist. While working from a social justice lens, I invite conversation regarding bias, privilege, and power. Throughout my diverse experiences in the field, I have increased my competency as well as my confidence in being of service to others. Let's create a supportive and safe space together that is unique to your needs as an individual.

Thank you for choosing to work with me. I know you have being working with these issues and complications for some time and have done your best to find a suitable solution. Seeking more resources to build on the work you have been doing is wise not weak. What I have to offer is a wealth of research education and years of experience helping others with similar problems. I can provide you with ideas, resources and encouragement that have been helpful to others in your situation. The work is still yours because you have to live your life yourself. Together we will examine whaat has not been helpful so far and where to go from there. Therapy does not happen in 30 or 45 minutes a week, it works when you work with it in your own experiences, with classes, journal and worksheets provided on the Better Help platform. You can also discuss issues, events, unexpected disruptions and similar by TXT at any time between sessions and when you return finished worksheets. I respond via TXT usually within 48 hours (except weekends and holidays) If you have any questions about using the Better Help platform, go to the help menu on the top right of your screen for client support (I hope, they do not show us the client screen) I do know it is some where on your main BetterHelp screen. Betterhelp does not give therapist any business details in general or regarding any particular client. We therapists are licensed independent contractors. The work you and I do together is not shared with Betterhelp or anyone else (exceptions explained in the consent you have signed or need to sign for us to work together.
