About Brianna
Brianna Sheridan is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, LPCC, practicing in California with seven years of professional experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career uncertainty, and the strain that comes with parenting and family problems. Her work also addresses grief, anger, depression, and challenges like ADHD and compassion fatigue.
Brianna guides adults who want straightforward, practical support. She treats motivation and confidence concerns by listening first, then helping people try small steps that fit their life. Sessions focus on what is happening now and what can change next.
Her approach draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build workable habits. She also uses client-centered ideas to keep the conversation grounded in each person’s goals. The Gottman Method informs her thinking about communication and relationship patterns when those issues come up.
Clients can expect clear, down-to-earth conversation about real problems. Work may include tracking patterns, trying behavioral experiments, and practicing different ways of speaking with others. She pays attention to cultural and practical factors that affect daily life.
Brianna asks clients to identify short-term goals and then checks progress each session. Her style is collaborative and action-oriented. People who want help sorting through family stress, parenting strain, or life transitions often find this approach helpful.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and feeling stuck during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms and build new routines. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and mood difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Brianna will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will recommend which methods to emphasize. This is a collaborative process where methods may shift as needs change.

Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also supports practicing communication skills and behavioral experiments between sessions, which many people find useful when addressing family stress, parenting concerns, or coping with life transitions.
