Welcome to our practice Brianna Douglas, LCSW-A, LCAS-A!

My ideal client is someone who may be feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or stuck—but is open to exploring their emotions and experiences in a safe and supportive space. They might be navigating anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, or difficulty with emotional regulation and communication. Whether they are a child learning how to express big feelings, or an adult trying to reconnect with themselves, they come to therapy because they want relief, clarity, and change.
I help by creating a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences at their own pace. My approach is rooted in a strength-based perspective—focusing on the resilience and capabilities each client already has, even when they might not see it themselves.
I know how overwhelming it can feel to take the first step toward therapy—especially when life feels heavy, confusing, or uncertain. Whether you're a parent seeking support for your child, a teen trying to find your voice, or an adult navigating life’s challenges, you deserve a space where you feel seen, heard, and understood. I'm here when you're ready!
