I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Louisiana. I received my Master of Social Work at the University of Washington in Seattle in 2001. I worked for the Veteran's Administration Hospital in Seattle in inpatient psychiatry for two years before returning to my home state of Louisiana to be near family. Since 2003, I have worked in Child Welfare, Community Mental Health, and private hospital. For the last 13 years, I've been the Clinical Director for an Intensive Outpatient Program, providing group and individual psychotherapy. My therapy style draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, and Self-Compassion Therapy. I tend to center around body-mind based therapies which utilize healing the brain to heal the mind and increasing body awareness. My clients tend to describe me as safe and warm. We will work together to clarify your goals for therapy and to develop an individualized plan of care. My passion is to see individuals grow and heal. I'm excited about being a part of your healing journey. There are many life issues that cause us pain and it is a brave step to begin counseling. Ready to begin!

Thank you very much for checking here: I hope to be of service to you. My 17+ years of experience includes many years of counseling and listening, across various cultures, ages and personal client needs, with a few years as adjunct professor at Louisiana State University, Shreveport, LA: 3 years of work as a patient counselor in a hospital psychiatric unit, and 3 years of practice in a pediatric clinic. My current solo practice is empathetic, accepting and non-judgmental, having also practiced as an EAP (employee counselor) in a very large hospital and city system, in which I was required to see anyone for any situation or issue they may bring to counseling. This unique opportunity provided me with insights and understanding of people beyond my own personal scope of experience. I believe this has made me more sensitive to the needs, hurts and stress of the various clients I serve. I am generally available 6 days a week for appointments, because I really do enjoy my practice and my clients. I am licensed in Louisiana, Oregon and Florida and serve clients in those states, as well as in overseas countries. I am old enough to enjoy my 6 children, 14 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchild, together with my wife in a delightful sharing relationship. This creates a relaxed, accepting and strong relationship and family foundation for your counseling needs. My personal strengths hopefully convey to you a caring and positive mindset as we work together. My hobbies are sailing, backpacking, snow skiing and cooking (especially apple pies:) (p.s. In fairness to potential Oregon clients, I want to let you know that I am in the Eastern Time Zone, and regretfully, I can only be available to West Coast clients from 6:00/ am until 1:00 pm :( If this is not workable hours for you, you may wish to find another therapist who may have better hours for your schedule. I felt it was only fair to let you know this in advance.) Also..I can open more hours than what shows on the schedule, so if you need a day/time that is not shown, please message me. Hope to hear from you soon!

Hi, I’m Brandy. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I work with adults who are carrying a lot — often quietly and on their own. You might look “put together” on the outside — showing up for work, family, and responsibilities — but inside feel overwhelmed, anxious, drained, or unsure of yourself. Maybe you’re carrying stress that no one else really sees. You might be navigating anxiety, depression, substance use, relationship strain, or a major life shift. You’re functioning… but it feels heavier than it should. I work with adults who want things to feel different. You may be ready for change but unsure where to start. That’s okay — we figure that out together. My approach is warm, supportive, and honest. I want therapy to feel safe enough for you to be real, and structured enough that you leave with clarity and tools you can actually use. We’ll gently explore patterns that may be keeping you stuck, build practical coping skills, strengthen boundaries, and work toward emotional steadiness and confidence in managing stress. I’ve worked in high-stress and crisis settings, so I’m comfortable walking with clients through difficult seasons. At the same time, I care deeply about helping you build long-term stability — not just getting through the moment, but growing beyond it. You don’t have to have the right words or a clear plan before starting. We’ll take it one step at a time. If you’re ready to feel more steady, clear, and supported, I would truly be honored to walk alongside you. I look forward to hearing your story and walking alongside you. Brandy Brodnax
