Briana is a dedicated Licensed Mental Health Counselor who grew up in the Bronx. She was drawn to the field by her own family experiences, which motivated her to become a therapist and assist others with their healing journeys. Briana finds her work rewarding because it allows her to deeply connect with her clients to discover their true selves, feel heard, and experience desired change. It is important to her to provide a non-judgmental, safe space, which allows her clients to present as their authentic self. Briana’s combined approach of cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) encourages her clients to deal with intense emotions and restructure negative thoughts. The main goals of DBT are to teach people to live in the moment, develop healthy ways to cope with stress, regulate their emotions, and improve their relationships with others. When she isn’t working, Briana enjoys trying new restaurants with her friends, traveling, collecting sneakers, and attending NBA games.
