Spotlight on our Intern Brianna Herrera. Brianna is a Clinical Mental Health Counseling student at Liberty University.

Brianna's counseling approach is person-centered and integrative. She believes every person has a unique story, and counseling should be shaped around their individual needs, goals, and pace. Brianna views therapy as a collaborative process where clients can feel supported as they explore their experiences, gain insight, and work toward healing and personal growth. Her goal is to create a warm, safe, and welcoming space where you can feel heard, understood, and valued, and to feel comfortable being yourself and sharing only when you are ready. Brianna would be honored to walk alongside you as you work toward greater hope, healing, and well-being.

Please welcome Lauren Bates to the team!

Lauren is an art therapy intern who will be staying on with us once she graduates! Lauren understands that sometimes traditional talk therapy can be daunting. Healing is a creative, and often messy, process, and art therapy offers the option to use art as a supplementary medium to help make processing a bit easier to navigate, whether that’s by working on a drawing that helps ground you to the moment, or by externalizing emotions to access a part of your subconscious you hadn’t yet considered.

In sessions, Lauren draws from a blend of humanistic and transpersonal-based approaches, incorporating creative expression with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Gestalt, and Internal Family Systems (parts work) to provide q***r- and gender-affirming mental health care. Lauren says "Sometimes, life gets messy. Let’s put the mess on the canvas where it belongs."
