About Briana

Briana Henry is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 20 years of experience. She offers focused, goal-oriented work for adults who want practical help with stress, anxiety, anger, relationships, parenting, and life changes.

She keeps sessions short-term when that fits the client's goals. That approach suits people who want to address specific problems, strengthen coping skills, or work through transitions like postpartum adjustment. Briana commonly helps with self-esteem, career pressures, mood concerns, and workplace issues.

Briana uses straightforward, collaborative methods in her work. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to the client. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that fuel worry or anger.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills are part of her toolkit for managing intense emotions and improving moment-to-moment coping. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear, achievable steps when clients want fast, practical progress. These methods are used together depending on the issue and the person's goals.

Her telehealth practice emphasizes written live chat and messaging sessions. This format can fit into busy schedules and allows ongoing written check-ins. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session to see if the approach fits their needs.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Briana uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Client-Centered Therapy means she listens closely and helps clients clarify what matters most, useful for relationship and parenting concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that contribute to anger, anxiety, or low mood and then practicing concrete changes.

She treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. Together the client and she will consider goals, preferences, and which methods feel most useful. That allows sessions to be adjusted over time as progress or needs change.

Her practice currently offers live chat and messaging sessions for individuals. These written formats can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow short check-ins, and give time to reflect on responses. Since session options can change, confirm the current formats before booking so they fit your routine.
