Briana
Living is more than just surviving and getting by. Therapy is empowerment!
Welcome!
My name is Briana and I’m a therapist from New York.
New York made me, but Barcelona healed me.
Done with ‘ticking all the boxes’ in New York, I decided I needed to reconnect with myself.
Stepping outside my comfort zone and travelling completely shifted my life priorities and brought love into my life.
After returning to New York for a year I knew the Mediterranean lifestyle was the one for me!

Early experiences sparked my desire to understand human behaviour and how to work through challenges.

The values of kindness, compassion, and empathy inherited from my Grandma are values I now bring to sessions.
I am passionate about providing others with the support to manage emotions and life obstacles with confidence.
How did I realise my calling in life was psychology?

details about me as a person
I love using my hands to create something by drawing, doodling, painting, or punch needling.
I’m a thrill seeker! Where there is a zip line or amusement park you will find me yelling from the top of my lungs.
I love to connect with nature on the beach, paddle boarding and hiking.
In my clients own words - therapy with me
Briana creates a very open and relaxed environment, I feel listened to and understood during our sessions.
The waitlist process was well managed and I feel that the overall communication is very good. I'm glad I waited because I think Briana is the perfect fit for me.
I like that the sessions are directional and that the goal is to not need therapy anymore.
I really like that Bri listens carefully, without judgement, and provides feedback that allows me to see the situation from another perspective. She allows me to take action with her feedback and implements effective activities in our sessions. Even though we have only had 3-4 sessions I find them extremely helpful already.
Definitely felt heard, understood, and respected during the session. Liked how Briana set the tone with breathing exercises to just fully be in the moment with her.
Everything was wonderful, we all felt heard. It was a great first session.
Love Bri’s calm nature and the focus on the personal goal.
