About Brandi
Brandi Garner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges tied to addiction and life transitions.
She uses direct, practical conversation to help people sort out what matters to them. Sessions often focus on building clearer communication, managing overwhelming feelings, and developing small, doable changes that make daily life more manageable. Brandi describes herself as sex positive and addresses intimacy and kink-related concerns without judgment.
Her background includes work with grief, end-of-life questions, caregiving strain, and family-of-origin issues. She also helps people who are navigating ADHD, commitment or control struggles, and patterns of codependency that leave them putting others first. Brandi aims to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice new ways of responding.
Brandi draws from several approaches in session. She blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to clarify values, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to work on thinking and behavior, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at relational patterns. Practical skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and a client-centered stance shape conversations and exercises.
People meet her to address career stress, parenting strain, communication problems, and recovery from substance or relationship harm. She invites straightforward discussion about goals and next steps so therapy fits into daily routines.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. It can help with anxiety, grief, and decisions about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for stress, mood, and relapse prevention. Attachment-Based Therapy examines how early and current relationship patterns affect trust and closeness and can help with intimacy issues and codependent patterns.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, preferences, and daily life. That conversation usually happens in early sessions and can be adjusted over time.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commute time. They also let people use different exercises that work well over video or phone, such as behavioral experiments, in-the-moment skills practice, and values-based planning that you can try between sessions.
