Getting to know Brian Barnes

IMPORTANT: Thriveworks cannot provide services to clients with Medicaid coverage. If you have Medicaid, please contact your plan directly to find an in-network provider. For all other insurance plans, Thriveworks will verify your benefits after you book through Zocdoc. If verification isn't completed before your visit, you'll be charged our self-pay rate of $200 for that session. AFTER YOU BOOK: Complete these steps to avoid cancellation or being switched to self-pay. 1. Check your email for instructions to set up your Thriveworks account. Within your Thriveworks’ account, sign consent forms and add a valid credit card, which will be automatically charged for copays, fees, post-insurance balances, and self-pay amounts. 2. If using insurance, upload clear photos of the front and back of your insurance card. 3. Expect a confirmation call from our team to verify your information and answer questions. CANCELLATION POLICY: Provide 48 hours advance notice to avoid the $135 late cancellation fee. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 14 years of experience in the mental health field. I specialize in supporting individuals, couples, and families as they navigate the complexities-and often confusion associated with-anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, and other challenges. I work collaboratively with clients to clearly define goals and a supportive environment aimed at achieving sustainable change. I earned my master's degree in social work from Portland State University. My clinical approach is client-centered and often grounded in narrative therapy to identify and externalize problems. Through the use of motivational interviewing, stages of change, and cognitive-behavioral modalities, I help clients build a realistic plan to achieve goals. I understand what it's like to live with personal struggles and try to manage them on your own. Shame, stigma, and societal pressures often prevent people from accepting help.
