Brandon Brissette, AMFT

We all face our own unique challenges in our everyday lives. These challenges can range from inspiring to overwhelming, from motivating to diminishing, and anything in between. Sometimes it can be relatively easy to get lost in the vast ocean of life, and we may not even realize anything is off until we are already lost at sea, adrift amongst the waves. Therapy can be the life boat we need when all that we see before us are rough waters. It can often be difficult to ask for help when feeling lost or stuck, and engaging in self-discovery can feel daunting, but even making an effort to search for a therapist is taking a step towards growth.
 

I primarily work with couples and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship distress, and loss of self. I also work with men on emotional tolerance, emotional expression, self-advocacy, and learning to be vulnerable. While I approach therapy from a psychodynamic lens, I also tailor my work with clients to fit their needs by incorporating aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and mindfulness-based modalities. When working with couples, I utilize an Imago Therapy framework, which focuses on our unconscious inclination to seek relationship partners as a means of addressing and healing our wounds from childhood. As a depth psychology therapist, I help clients navigate their experiences in a safe, open environment that focuses on curiosity, exploration, understanding, and growth. If you think that you might be up for doing some digging into your thoughts and experiences, please feel free to reach out and schedule a consultation with me. Be sure to bring your shovel.
