Hi, I'm Bre (she/they), a licensed professional counselor serving clients in California and Oregon. I live in Joshua Tree, within the Mojave Desert, alongside my pup, Stella Blue. With over eight years of clinical experience—much of it in crisis settings—I specialize in supporting survivors of abuse, first responders, and anyone navigating the effects of trauma, chronic stress, or life's most challenging transitions. My therapeutic approach is grounded in humanistic principles and informed by somatic awareness, mindfulness, and deep presence. I believe healing begins within a safe, authentic relationship where you feel seen, heard, and accepted just as you are. Together, we'll explore your experiences with curiosity and compassion while working toward meaningful, lasting change. My training includes a Master of Arts in Contemplative Psychotherapy and Buddhist Psychology from Naropa University, as well as a 500-hour Holistic Yoga Teacher Training completed in India. These experiences have shaped the way I hold space for others by integrating mind, body, and heart into the therapeutic process. I also believe that being an effective therapist requires an ongoing commitment to my own growth. Through personal therapy, yoga, meditation, and continued learning, I strive to deepen my self-awareness and embody the compassion, humility, presence, and occasional humor that I hope to bring into our work together. Creating an inclusive and affirming space is central to my practice. I work from a social justice lens and welcome conversations about identity, culture, privilege, power, and the systems that shape our lived experiences. My goal is to cultivate a therapeutic relationship where every part of you feels respected, supported, and empowered. Whether you're seeking healing from trauma, greater self-understanding, or support through a difficult season of life, I'd be honored to walk alongside you. Together, we'll create a therapeutic space that is aligned with your unique needs as an individual.

Find a therapist near you in Fields Landing, California
Finding a therapist near you in Fields Landing, California starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. California is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you.
The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In California, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across California, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.
Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.
Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in California
Online therapy and in-person therapy both connect you with a licensed professional, and the main difference is how you meet. In California, online therapy through BetterHelp lets you have sessions by phone, video, or in-app messaging, so you can meet from home or on a schedule that fits your life. In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows. Online therapy may be more accessible for people with busy schedules, limited transportation, or a preference for a more discreet setting. Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
Finding a therapist that accepts insurance in California
BetterHelp accepts insurance through many major insurance plans. Insurance availability and coverage may vary by state, plan, provider network, and therapist availability, and deductible status. Eligible members' average copay is $23 per session.
You can check your in-network status on the BetterHelp site through the sign up flow. If you prefer to pay without insurance, BetterHelp subscriptions range from $70 to $100 per week, billed as an alternative way to access the same care, and you can use HSA and FSA funds toward the cost. For a full breakdown of how BetterHelp works with insurance plans, see BetterHelp insurance coverage.
