Meet the Therapist

Briona Richardson, TLMFT

Hi, I’m Briona

Whether you are navigating life’s challenges or juggling life’s blessings, if life is imbalanced, both can feel overwhelming. It's important to declutter our lives to make room for growth and what matters most. Between the expectations we put on ourselves and those put on us, deciphering between the two can be challenging. This often leads to our feeling anxious, depressed or stuck. Achieving balance may look like mapping out future goals, setting boundaries, mending relationships or simply needing a sounding board. Let me help you build a life where you make choices that align with your values, needs, and goals. Imagine, waking daily to a life where you get to decide. It is the most liberating and balanced of all.

With a unique blend of therapeutic skills and a deep understanding of the human body, as a former dancer, I provide a somatic approach to therapy; integrating body awareness and movement. Together, we’ll work to unlock the body’s wisdom, promoting healing, resilience, and a fuller sense of well-being.

In a safe and supportive environment, I provide a direct, multi-cultural, no nonsense approach. Whether you are seeking short or long term support, insight from your past or sunglasses for your bright future, call me today.

FAQs

  • How many sessions until I see results?

    Typically, clients begin to notice meaningful changes within 3 to 5 sessions. However, the pace of progress depends on a few factors, including your level of commitment to the process. The more actively you engage with the work—both in our sessions and through reflection and practice outside of them—the more likely you are to experience positive shifts. Every individual’s journey is unique, so we'll work together to ensure that your progress aligns with your goals and needs.

  • How do I get the most of of therapy?

    The number one determining factor for best results from therapy is the client's belief in the process and in their ability to change. When you enter therapy with an open mind and a willingness to embrace growth, you're much more likely to see positive outcomes. Trusting in the process—along with active engagement and commitment—creates a strong foundation for meaningful, lasting change.
