How Brandi works
Brandi draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses narrative and psychodynamic perspectives to look at life stories and past influences. Solution-focused and motivational approaches help set clear goals and build momentum toward them.
In a typical session she will collaborate on goals, try concrete strategies, and check what feels useful. She supports people working through caregiver stress, body image and family of origin issues, loneliness, money worries, commitment and communication problems, and mood concerns. Brandi has seven years of therapy experience as an LCSW.
Her practice offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Getting started involves selecting the Start Therapy button and completing a short matching questionnaire to schedule sessions.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Brandi uses cognitive-behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that cause stress or anxiety. This approach is practical and often includes homework like trying new coping skills between sessions.She also draws on motivational interviewing to help people clarify their reasons for change and find internal motivation. That method is conversational and works well when someone feels ambivalent about next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss goals and preferences and adapt techniques that fit a person's needs. The process is collaborative and adjustments are made based on what proves most helpful.
Online therapy with Brandi uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer flexibility. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging works well for brief check-ins or ongoing support. These options help people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules and make consistent contact more practical.
