About Me
Hi, I’m Bre, preferred pronouns she/her/hers. I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Oregon, with over six years of experience. I have worked with individuals of all ages, with majority of my focus presently on young adults.
Within sessions, I take the approaches of client-centered and strengths-based counseling while remaining rooted in mindfulness. I have gained the insight and skills to show up fully for myself and others in session. I have cultivated self-awareness through meditation classes and retreats that have aided my own self-discovery of inherent compassion in order to guide others with humility and grace.
Education and Additional Training:
• Naropa University, Master of Arts, Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology
• University of Missouri St. Louis, Bachelor of Interdisciplinary Studies, Art Therapy
• Emotional Frequency Technique (EFT), Level I & II
• 500 Hour Holistic Yoga Teacher Training (YTT)

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.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Breanna "Bre" Spehn. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Bre is very communicative
Bre is terrific. Very nice and easy to talk with!
Bre is understanding, kind and supportive. She knows exactly how to get to what is important and has given me many tools to help myself.
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.
I’ve only had a couple sessions with Breanna and she really has helped me. She’s patient and listens and is encouraging. I would recommend Breanna.
My sessions with Bre have been great. Bre is extremely easy to talk to and gives me the space to express whatever I may be feeling that day. Bre's input has always been kind and unbiased , allowing me to view things from a different perspective. I would highly recommend Bre to a friend or colleague.
I absolutely love her she gets me on so many levels
I love Bre so much, she really listens to me and understands the growth I'm needing help with
She's a really nice lady.
