I use visual aids and unique illustrations of topics discussed, so if you fear that you may have trouble talking at first, don't worry; it will be easier than you think!

Are you feeling overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood, struggling to balance who you are with who you're expected to be, or navigating the aftermath of trauma or life changes? You're not alone, and you don't have to do this by yourself. I help moms, adolescents, and survivors of trauma build resilience, confidence, and clarity so they can show up more fully in their lives. A client once told me therapy with me feels like "chisme with a purpose" and I've claimed it. I'm a social worker with over a decade of experience, including the other side of the couch-offering a space that's safe, where you don't have to explain or perform.

Hello, I'm Brearley, (Rhymes with Dearly!) I have over 20 years experience working in the mental health field. I moved to Austin from Los Angeles in 2015 to work as the counselor at St. Andrew's Episcopal School. Prior to my Texas move, I worked with youth and adults in Los Angeles and San Francisco in private practice, inpatient, nonprofit, and school settings. I strive to provide a space for all people to feel safe, respected, and heard. I work with both individual clients and their families, and have limited spaces for sliding scale appointments for those who are not able to afford my fee.

I specialize in working with codependent women and men. Codependency is not always related to addiction, it is often referred to as a self-love deficit disorder because most codependent clients have a difficult time identifying and focusing on their own needs. They often spend a lifetime being people-pleasers, but eventually feel anger and resentment for neglecting themselves and not receiving the appreciation/love they desire from others. Breaking free from codependency requires individuals to step away from their denial, to honor themselves, and to set boundaries. Then they can love and nurture others in a healthy manner.

Trauma hurts. It can be sudden, life-altering and overwhelming, or chronic, subtle and nearly unnoticeable, but either way it can change the way we think about others, the world, and unfortunately, ourselves. Dealing with the aftermath—changes in our relationships, lashing out toward self or others, feeling nothing and/or everything all at once—is sometimes as hard as the initial event, especially when society, friends and family and our own minds tell us to “just get over it.”
