Professional statement

Brianda García is a mental health therapist specializing in anxiety, depression, and identity work. Immediately meeting her, you will notice a blend of empathy, investment, and genuine concern in her feedback. With her guidance, you will feel safe and comfortable during session, which will allow you to express yourself willingly in session. Rest assured, confidentiality covers our conversations in session to stay between us. So, speak to her in English, Spanish, or Spanglish, she is comfortable code-switching and has a Mexican-American background.

Brianda's counseling style primarily revolves around two modalities: person-centered and psychodynamic approaches. This means talk therapy with long-term goals, which are paused when emergent topics come up. Adding creative activities, journaling, and even games is what makes my counseling sessions different from others. Additionally, with permission, we explore a client’s upbringing to answer questions identifying triggers that can cause stress.

Start the counseling process and reach out to schedule a FREE phone consultation! Currently, Brianda offers both virtual session to Texas residents and in-person sessions in Austin, TX. Using the Zoom platform, online sessions are available Tuesday-Fridays afternoons/evenings and Saturday mornings. In-person sessions are held in an office located near Barton Creek Mall and are hosted Thursday and Friday afternoons/evenings and Saturday mornings. Brianda is an ally of the LGBTQ+ community and offers reduced rates to the BIPOC community.

Brianda’s clientele typically consists of clients as young as 13 years old and anyone who gravitates working with a youthful and patient counselor. If you choose to work with her, you will learn how to strengthen your boundaries, cultivate optimistic thinking, and establish coping skills to self-soothe your anxiety and/or depression. So be sure to reach out and ask about availability!

Message to clients

Hola!

I'm Brianda, a therapist who began honing her counseling skills early on by learning adaptability, cultural fluency, and transparency; these skills were essential when learning how to integrate both Mexican and American cultures. My specialties include anxiety, depression, and identity exploration. Additionally, I am well-versed on generational trauma, narcissism, anger management, and domestic violence.

My office is located in Austin, TX. I conduct virtual sessions (through Zoom) Tuesday to Saturdays and in-person sessions Thursday to Saturdays. My clients consist of young adults experiencing transitional phases and teenagers working on social skills, boundaries, and other aspects of development. Speak to me in English, Spanish, or Spanglish; I can easily code switch!

If you feel like you resonated with a part of my bio, reach out to me for a FREE phone consultation.
