Briana Perlson, LCSW
Preferred Name: Briana
About Me
I am a EMDRIA certified EMDR therapist and consultant. I specialize in working with Adults and Children who have experienced complex trauma, stress, anxiety, grief, etc. I help clients find their inner resilience and learn healthy coping skills and distress tolerance. I work from a trauma informed and somatic lens in order to address what is going within the body, brain, and spirit. I utilize EMDR and somatic practices such as trauma informed mindfulness, breath work, sound, yoga, and reiki. I offer EMDR intensives 3 hours or longer for those who don't have time to come to therapy weekly and/or want to work through their symptoms at a faster pace.
Education & Experience
As a trauma-informed yoga and breathwork teacher, I utilize somatic practices to work through the present symptoms and triggers as ways to ground and release emotional pain. EMDR works through trauma, grief, stress, anxiety, fear, etc at a much faster pace than traditional talk therapy. I have sessions available during after hours and weekends in order to make therapy accessible. I’ve been honored to hold healing space for clients and clinicians walking through many challenges for the last 8 years facing addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, etc. I invite you to contact me and look forward to working with you on your healing journey!
