Family therapy and counseling in Brookline, MA

I am a clinically trained psychotherapist practicing in NJ, NY, MA, and PA. I work with individuals, couples, and families across all ages—from children and teens to college students and busy professionals. I also have experience supporting married couples facing marital challenges.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or emotionally exhausted? Maybe anxiety has you constantly overthinking, past experiences still affect your daily life, or you're navigating grief, depression, burnout, or a major life transition. Whatever brought you here, you don't have to face it alone.

Hi, I'm Brianna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with a Doctorate in Health Science. I specialize in helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, grief, depression, burnout, and life transitions with compassion, practical support, and evidence-based care.

I believe therapy is most effective when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and accepted. My goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools to help you move forward with greater confidence and resilience.

Taking the first step isn't always easy, but you don't have to do it alone. I'd be honored to support you on your journey toward healing and growth.

I have worked in the field of psychology for over 25 years and hold two Master’s degrees as well as a PhD in Neuropsychology. I provide psychotherapy for individuals across the lifespan and specialize in the treatment of mood disorders, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

I also work with individuals who are navigating major life stressors such as divorce, career transitions, and other significant changes. In addition, I help clients address concerns related to anger management, chronic stress, and the psychological impact of health issues.

My goal is to support clients in developing effective coping strategies, gaining insight, and making meaningful changes that improve their overall well-being and quality of life.

I do Individual, Couples, Family, and Group Therapy. I currently facilitate a Bereavement Group which meets at my Brookline office every Saturday from 2-4pm. I also run groups for substance abuse, depression and anxiety. In addition, I have a lot of experience counseling children of all ages. I am a firm believer in strength-based psychotherapy.

I hold an MSW from Boston University and have been in practice for 30 years. I have trained in CBT, Gestalt, Humanistic, Motivational Interviewing and Person-Centered Therapy.
