About Brianna

Brianna Sheridan is a California licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with seven years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions. She aims to make the first steps less overwhelming and supports clients who are trying to move forward during hard moments.

Brianna frames sessions around what each person brings to the room. She treats clients as the expert on their own lives and helps them notice strengths they already have. Conversations are practical and goal-focused, with space for emotions and meaning as they come up.

Her work often includes clear tools for managing worry and improving motivation. She draws on methods that help people change unhelpful thinking and take value-driven action. She also uses approaches that emphasize acceptance and exploring personal meaning when decisions feel heavy.

Clients who want to address relationships, career stress, parenting strain, grief, or caregiver fatigue will find her style direct and empathetic. Brianna also supports those facing multicultural or immigration-related concerns and people coping after traumatic events or disasters.

She tailors plans to practical life needs like work schedules and day-to-day responsibilities. The therapist invites clients to set the pace and goals, then checks progress along the way. If you want to begin, the profile explains how to match and schedule a first session.

Approaches that translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are hard. It can be useful for anxiety, life changes, and motivation issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and homework to reduce symptoms like panic or low mood. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes listening, empathy, and the client's own pace, making space for personal meaning and decision making.

Figuring out the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt methods to fit the client's needs. Sessions are collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins around work or caregiving duties. Different approaches also shape session work - some weeks may focus on skills practice, while others explore values or relationship patterns - and that variety can fit into remote sessions as well.
