I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the state of New York. I have 5 years of experience in the field, working primarily with teens and families in both community and in-patient settings.
I believe that therapy is an active partnership and because of that I do not work harder than my clients. I distribute my attention and support so that it is heavier in the beginning of the treatment process. My support will naturally and gradually wane as my clients learn, practice, and master new skills to support themselves. I hold my clients accountable to being an active part of the process—the more energy they invest, the more rewarding the outcome will be!
Seeking help can often be the hardest step to take-however, it can be the one of the best gifts!
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Briana Halloran. 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.
Briana is amazing. I truly enjoy and benefit greatly from our sessions.

Briana is attentive and empathetic. I'm not perfect. I have tried to listen and work on what we discuss in our sessions, and whenever I don't improve immediately, she meets me with patience and encouragement. I feel more confident in my ability to be introspective and act on what I see because of my sessions with Bri.

Briana is very kind and gentle and I don't feel judged in any way when talking to her. Thank you for the wonderful support!
