Getting to know Brianna Cheringal

Hello, I’m Brianna! Thank you for taking the time to be here. It’s no small feat to start looking for a therapist and I want to honor the courage that takes. My approach is grounded in compassion, empathy, and acceptance. I know how important it is to feel truly seen, safe, and understood in the therapy room and that’s the kind of space I strive to create.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I specialize in supporting adults who are navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, anxiety, stress, and healing from trauma, including domestic and sexual violence. I have a special focus on women’s issues and the LGBTQIA+ community. I am trained in EMDR as one of the ways I support trauma recovery. My work is collaborative and individualized. I meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you explore your story, release what no longer serves you, and step into a place of greater self-worth, safety, and connection. I work from an inclusive, affirming lens and am deeply committed to providing therapy that is both welcoming and responsive to the diverse experiences people bring into the room.
