About Brianna
Brianna Sheridan is an LPCC - Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor practicing in California with seven years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, career challenges, and coping with life changes. Her work also covers ADHD, grief, parenting strain, and relationship and family issues including family of origin concerns.
Brianna approaches sessions with straightforward conversation and practical tools. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and builds on their existing strengths. Sessions typically include clear goal-setting, skill practice, and reflection on how past family patterns show up now.
She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Client-Centered Therapy principles guide how she listens and responds. When relevant, she draws on ideas from the Gottman Method for relationship communication and Existential Therapy to discuss purpose and meaning.
Brianna has experience helping people manage caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, and the effects of immigration and multicultural issues. She also addresses panic and mood concerns and supports people coping with natural or human-caused disasters.
Practical work in sessions can include setting small experiments, learning emotion regulation skills, and practicing clearer ways to say difficult things. Clients who want coaching around career choices or money concerns can expect direct conversations and step-by-step planning.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing new behaviors through small experiments. It is often used for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflection so the client can clarify goals and build confidence.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That choice can change over time as the work evolves and new priorities emerge.

Many people find that remote sessions let them balance therapy with work, caregiving, or other commitments while still doing focused skills practice and discussion.
