Hello! I'm Dr. Brian Freidenberg. In therapy, I place the therapeutic relationship above all else. The relationship is the vehicle for change. I believe that a good therapist listens well; is empathic; and provides a safe, empowering, and judgement-free environment.

My primary areas of expertise are ADDICTIONS (e.g., substances, sex, video games, phone, social media), ANXIETY, CHILDHOOD and ADOLESCENCE, COLLEGE students, VETERANS, RELATIONSHIPS, TRAUMA, GROUPS, PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS, and COGNITIVE BEHAVIORAL THERAPY.

I am a Teletherapy/Videocounseling services provider in Florida and accept insurance and private payments. However, outside Florida, I only accept private payments. Taking the step to seek counseling is a brave and patient choice that can help you develop coping skills and improve your life. I have assisted clients dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship issues in the past. You can purchase a set of 64 Therapy Cards in English, French, and Spanish on Amazon. These cards motivate you on your journey to improved mental health.

The goal is to get good at life, not get good at going to therapy. Build a toolbox of specific skills that help with your mental health. I help people with depression, anxiety, trauma, OCD, and many other areas of struggle. The goal is to assess and give interventions that gain control of life and heal.

I work with people who are part of the LGBTQIA+ communities and allies. My work is rooted in gender-affirming therapy for those seeking exploration and support around their gender identities. I also work with those who are living with addiction and recovery. I work with clients who live, work and play under a cloak of secrecy; the outside world sees them as goal-driven professionals who have stable relationships and a host of family and friends. My clients hide their struggles with Depression, Anxiety, Low Self Esteem, and Substance Use. My clients want to live and love authentically.
