Welcome! I have been working in the mental health field for over 15 years. I completed my Master's Degree in Social Work from Springfield College. I enjoy working with Women in varying stages of their life with a concentration in infertility and perinatal support.
As a licensed mental health clinician, I utilize a combination of evidence-based interventions and genuine compassion, empathy, and belief in growth through the therapy process. My background is in cognitive behavioral therapy, with training in dialectical behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. I have experience working with teenagers and adults of all ages in addressing struggles related to anxiety, depression, addiction, grief & loss, life transitions, and trauma.
I am a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing medication
management and therapy for children ages 5+, adolescents, and adults. I treat ADHD,
depression, anxiety, PTSD, insomnia, and related conditions. I also work with adults with autism
spectrum disorder and ADHD, providing diagnostic clarification and ongoing treatment within
general psychiatric care. I offer in-person and telehealth visits and focus on collaborative,
evidence-based, and individualized care.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who runs a private practice called Next Play Therapy. I work with adolescents, young adults, adults, and athletes. My background includes both school-based counseling and outpatient therapy, where I’ve helped clients manage anxiety, stress, depression, self-esteem challenges, and life transitions. I also have experience coaching high school athletics, which has shaped my passion for helping athletes build confidence and mental resilience. My goal is to create a supportive space where clients feel comfortable, understood, and empowered to move forward.
Maybe what aches most is not the change itself, but the fear that someone you love is slipping out of reach — even if that someone is you. Everything feels different, yet somehow the same. One minute you are putting on pajamas, and the next you are spiraling because it is the first moment of quiet you have had all day. There is this gut feeling that your heart can no longer be bound with band-aids, but soul-searching is a lot before the alarm goes off tomorrow. You do not have to make sense of it all alone at midnight — that is what I am here for.
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.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Northampton, MA
Searching for therapists in Northampton starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist may fit your needs. Therapists can support a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, stress, and life transitions. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, approach, and experience match what you want to work on. Provider bios can also help you understand whether a therapist uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma-informed care, or couples therapy.
In a smaller city like Northampton, local therapist availability may vary by schedule, specialty, and office location. Virtual therapy can expand your options while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Massachusetts. As you narrow your search, consider whether you prefer in-person or virtual sessions, how soon you want to start, and whether a therapist offers appointment times that fit your calendar. Reading therapist profiles before booking can show you how they describe their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Northampton can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care more affordable. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, check your insurance, see an estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
