About Brian
Brian Krause is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 11 years of experience. He works with people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, low self-esteem, anxiety, and stress. He also supports concerns around codependency, attachment wounds, communication problems, grief, and parenting challenges.
He came to counseling after a personal turning point that changed how he relates to others. That experience led him into therapy work and a previous 15-year role as a pastor. He draws on those life experiences to understand how patterns get started and how they repeat in relationships.
In sessions he focuses on connection and clear conversation. He uses attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape expectations. He pairs that with client-centered dialogue to listen closely and with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools to notice and shift thinking and behavior.
He often addresses trust issues, post-infidelity pain, and recurring conflict. Practical work can include learning to name feelings, practicing boundary language, and noticing patterns that keep someone giving too much. He also uses emotion-focused techniques aimed at helping partners reconnect around core needs.
Clients describe the work as direct and relational. He aims for concrete steps that make daily life easier, such as small behavioral experiments, communication exercises, and strategies to reduce anxiety. Brian sees individual adults and couples in Florida and with international clients in English.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Brian uses attachment-based ideas to map how past relationships shape current reactions. That approach helps identify patterns that lead to distance, people-pleasing, or repeated conflict and supports work on connection and trust.He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person in the room. This means sessions often begin with open listening and then move to goals the client names, whether that is clearer boundaries or less reactivity.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. Those techniques are practical and can be practiced between sessions to build new habits around saying no, managing anxiety, or responding differently in tense moments.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. He helps people decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can shift over time as symptoms change and as progress is made.
The original biography does not specify which online session formats are offered. Confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday or evening, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. It can also let people try exercises and communication practices from where they live, then bring questions back to the next session.
