More about Breanna

  • 7 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC, LPCC

Hi, I’m Bre, preferred pronouns she/her. I am a licensed professional counselor in both Oregon and California, with over seven years of experience. I have worked with individuals of all ages, with different backgrounds, and across a wide variety of settings.

Within sessions, I take a humanistic psychological approach while remaining rooted in mindfulness. Through my variety of trainings, I have gained the insight and skills to show up fully for others in session. I remain an active participant in deepening my self-awareness through ongoing therapy, yoga, and meditation. These practices aid me in my own self-discovery of inherent compassion in order to guide others with humility and grace.

My Education and Additional Trainings:

• Naropa University, Master of Arts, Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology

• University of Missouri St. Louis, Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies, Art Therapy

• Adi Yogpeeth, 500 Hour Holistic Yoga Teacher Training (YTT), Yoga Therapy & Ayurveda Yoga

• Emotional Frequency Technique (EFT), Level I & II

• Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST)

Diversity and inclusion are crucial for me in my personal life, and in my career as a therapist. While working from a social justice lens, I invite conversation regarding bias, privilege, and power. Throughout my diverse experiences in the field, I have increased my competency as well as my confidence in being of service to others. Let's create a supportive and safe space together that is unique to your needs as an individual.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Reviewed March 2022

BetterHelp has been such a magnificent tool for me because of my social anxiety and my uncontrolled/unscheduled needs to communicate to my counselor. I can message Bre at any time and I know that she will respond as quickly as she can - always always within 24 hours which is amazing considering I am not her only client. She is kind, honest, and understanding. I’ve never felt so normal to have all of the struggles that I do but Bre makes it clear every single time I open up that I am doing great. She always offers the best techniques and advice for self love and working on the things that matter to me. She doesn’t avoid any topics I bring up even if they’re probably irrelevant. She is hands down the kindest and most efficient counselor I’ve met - and she is the first one I’ve worked with through BetterHelp. It’s amazing that it was such a great match the first time; but BetterHelp also can reconnect you with someone else if it isn’t such a great fit. I’m thankful that it took almost no time at all to find the counselor who fits the best with my needs. And I’m thankful for Bre for being the kind and patient person she is. She’s a fantastic counselor.
