I work with individuals who are on a journey toward self-compassion and living more fully as their authentic selves. Many individuals I work with have experienced early life trauma, religious trauma, or are looking to work through relationship attachments, social anxiety, sensory overwhelm, and interpersonal challenges.
We can work together to find ways to create greater balance in your life, and care for all parts of yourself. I offer sessions both in-person in Knoxville, TN or via telehealth throughout Ohio, Tennessee and Virginia between 8am-2pm EST on weekdays.

Are you seeking a path of fulfillment personally and in your relationships? Engaging in a rich and meaningful life requires knowing ourselves deeply and acting on intentional choices guided by our core values, feelings, and desires. Our relationships can become more intimate as we develop clarity about our needs and courage to be vulnerable with those we trust to meet us on this level. When we have experienced trauma, pelvic pain, or challenging relationships, we need space to heal. I support clients in deepening their capacity for presence, emotional intimacy, and pleasure through mindfulness, self-compassion, and self-acceptance.

Hi there! My name is Briana and I am here to support you through various challenges and transitions. We can oftentimes feel frustrated, stuck, or anxious - whether this be as a spouse, parent, employee, or just feeling overwhelmed as a human in general. We can all experience getting to a place where we feel completely numb & just trying to survive. You might feel like a hamster running on its wheel, feeling completely stuck and going nowhere, unsure of what to do differently. Maybe you're trying to heal on your own from the things that you never talk about, and are in need of someone who can listen & validate your emotions.

I focus on a few areas of specialty including trauma, life transitions, and child/adolescent therapy. My clients are those who need a safe space to process who they are and what they’re going through. I love working with people from all walks of life and all ages and stages. I don’t judge, I’m here to listen to your needs and help you find a path forward.

Life’s transitions, challenges and traumas can affect our overall well-being and can affect how we view ourselves, others, and the world around us. This can bring about emotional, mental and physical stress, leading to feelings of depression, anxiety and stress. Are you seeking Peace of Mind, Body and Spirit? If so, I would be honored to support you on your healing journey.

If you’re stuck in cycles of poor sleep, burnout, or constantly “holding it together,” you’re not alone — and you’re not broken. Many of the clients I support are education professionals, college students, or people coming to therapy for the first time — often seeking help with sleep, stress, and feeling constantly “on.”
For the past 10 years, I’ve supported adults across Tennessee through virtual therapy,
with a special focus on sleep and rest recovery. I help clients who struggle with
insomnia, perfectionism, people-pleasing, imposter syndrome, and chronic stress learn
how to rest again — both physically and emotionally.

Accepting new clients. Email is the best way to reach me. Thank you for stopping by my page! As someone who has been on both sides of the therapy couch, I understand how scary it can be to open up to a stranger about your life situation. It is for this reason that I am here to help. I believe in therapy, and the changes that are possible with the right provider.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to manage everything on your own.
You may feel anxious, sad, emotionally drained, or unsure where to turn, even if you’re still showing up and functioning day to day. When stress, low mood, or constant worry start to interfere with your peace, it can be hard to know where to begin.
I help adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem concerns, mood changes, family dynamics, and major life transitions. Many of my clients describe feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from themselves, and are looking for a safe place to talk things through and feel better.

Therapy shouldn't feel like talking to a stranger in a quiet room. It's a space where you can feel seen, heard, and understood without pressure to be anything other than yourself. I'm here to learn your story, understand your perspective, and help you make sense of what you're experiencing in a way that feels supportive and human.

If you’re here, something inside you already knows it’s time. Time to stop carrying the weight of everyone else's emotions, time to stop overthinking everything, time to stop believing you're "too much." You might be the one who always shows up, gives more than you get, and worries that if you stop trying so hard, everything will fall apart. You don't have to keep earning love through overthinking, caretaking, and self-silencing. Therapy can be the place where you finally exhale and learn how to tune into your own feelings and needs.

I find myself working with individuals who are the helpers among their family or friends. They are the one everyone else comes to talk to or get advice from. They are the ones who are adept at critical thinking and understanding why others are experiencing distress. Maybe they understand themselves pretty well too. But they need someone in their life to focus on them; to understand how they are feeling and why; to help them navigate out of it.
I would love to be that person for you. As a helper myself, I know the toll it can take to always be there for everyone else when no one is there for you.

Have you ever been told your emotions are “too much”? Maybe you’ve felt like you’re stuck in a loop of self-doubt, hopelessness, or even thoughts of giving up. I see you. And I want you to know things can get better. For the past decade, I have helped thousands of people emerge from hopelessness, suicidal ideation and the burden of unbearable pain into a life that they love using Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Life is hard. I know it is. I went through DBT as a client before I became a DBT therapist. And it saved my life. I want you to be filled with hope that DBT really can help and I can show you how.
