Brianne believes it is essential for individuals to feel witnessed, encouraged, and valued on their journey of survival and growth. She offers a safe, supportive space where clients can freely express themselves, working collaboratively to help them reconnect with their innate ability to guide their own path in a positive and meaningful way.

Currently pursuing her master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling (CMHC) at the University of Phoenix, Brianne’s therapeutic approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), incorporating techniques from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). She operates from a trauma-informed perspective and has experience with Motivational Interviewing (MI). Brianne is passionate about providing clients with practical tools, resources, and education in a warm, client-centered manner, tailored to meet each individual’s unique needs. She strives to be culturally aware and values understanding each person’s relationship with their own cultural background.

Brianne has worked with diverse populations, including families involved with the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) and individuals in permanent supportive housing facing serious mental illness (SMI), homelessness, and addiction. Her most recent experience was in a behavioral health hospital, supporting teenage males working through trauma and behavioral challenges. She enjoys working with clients of various ages and backgrounds, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, childhood trauma, boundary-setting, and more.

Outside of her professional life, Brianne loves spending time with her husband and their four cats. She believes in the power of laughter and often incorporates humor into her life—sometimes, it’s the best medicine for the moment.

Meet Shauna WolfertsCSW, EMDR

She believes that individuals possess an incredible ability to heal and build resilience from painful challenges and trauma. However, many times, individuals are uncertain about the starting point of their healing journey, leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, and even a paralyzing sense of hopelessness. Unaddressed trauma can cloud daily experiences, depriving individuals of the joy and contentment they seek in life. She sees therapy as a beacon, offering direction and knowledge, enabling individuals to discover and harness their innate healing and resilience.

In partnership with her clients, she emphasizes forming a therapeutic bond rooted in a client-centric, strengths-based approach. She aims to compassionately equip her clients with evidence-backed tools and strategies, drawing from CBT, TF-CBT, ACT, and Motivational Interviewing, facilitating their journey towards the healing and life they aspire to.
