Testimonials

  • Denita M Jones, LMSW

    My experience with Briana was via supervisor at a private practice. Briana was my mentor, supervisor, and colleague. Briana is one of the most caring, honest, and straight-forward persons I have ever had the experience to work under and with. She provided me with such clear insight in the field. Whenever I was up against tough situations, she was very supportive, responsive, and an asset. She is highly intelligent, very knowledgeable of this work, practice, and field. I highly recommend Briana to others that are looking for a great supervisor and mentor.

  • Raven T, LCSW

    I would 10/10 recommend Briana. She was my colleague during my first year as a CMH therapist and gave me great insight and guidance during that time. There are tips that she gave me then that I still use 5 years into my practice. She is an excellent resource and is extremely supportive and knowledgeable.

  • DeAnna F, LCSW

    Briana provided incredible support and consultation for me. I always felt heard and respected in my conversations with her. She was always very responsive and provided great insight and clinical guidance. I highly recommend her as a clinical supervisor!
