Brianna Clement, MS LMHCA

My approach to treatment is “transdiagnostic” which is just a fancy way of saying that we will be looking beneath the surface of your presenting symptoms or concerns for long-lasting change. From my viewpoint, most symptoms or problematic behaviors are the psyche’s way of communicating that something important has been avoided for too long. Throughout the unfolding process, we will carefully explore the multiplicity of parts that exist within you. This includes split-off or dissociated parts that often carry painful feelings, rigid behaviors, and the symptoms that propelled you to seek professional help. Somatic psychotherapy, emotion-focused therapy, and Jungian depth psychology guide my course of treatment. To access the emotional side of your brain more efficiently, I encourage expressive therapies during sessions such as mind-body connection exercises, active imagination, and compassionate awareness practices. If that doesn’t sound like your cup of tea, corrective emotional experience can also occur interpersonally within relationships, including the one between therapist and client. The time needed to develop trust and establish safety in our relationship will take as long as you need.

I provide individual counseling for adults. I am specifically interested in offering resilience-informed care for survivors of spiritual abuse, complex PTSD (such as childhood neglect/abuse), and intergenerational trauma. I am passionate about psychedelic integration through mind-body awareness and transpersonal therapy. While I welcome working alongside adults of all ages, I believe my approach may be best suited for adults entering mid-life transitions and/or experiencing a disruption in personal identity. Grounding in principles of equity and inclusion, I want your unique story to be respected, wholeheartedly received, and celebrated.
