Our Care Team

I work with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking deeper connection, healing, and emotional growth. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in empathy, with a focus on creating a safe and supportive space where you can explore emotions, gain insight, and build skills for lasting change.

I specialize in Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Music Therapy, integrating emotional and creative expression to support clients navigating relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and past trauma. I’m especially passionate about the connection between music and emotion, and I use music as a powerful tool to help express feelings that can be difficult to put into words.

I’m honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward greater well-being and meaningful connection.

Brittany Stephen

MA, LPC, MT-BC

I am a Graduate Counseling Intern currently pursuing my Master of Science in Clinical Counseling at Brenau University. I work with children, teens, and adults, and I’m passionate about supporting clients as they navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions.

My approach is warm, supportive, and culturally sensitive. I aim to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel seen, heard, and valued, and where we can collaboratively explore challenges and develop healthy coping skills for growth and resilience.

As an intern, I receive ongoing supervision from Shakeia Brodie, LPC, CPCS, ensuring that you benefit from a collaborative team approach to your care. I’m honored to walk alongside you on your journey toward healing and well-being.

Christie Tran

Graduate Counseling Intern

I work with older adolescents and adults, offering a warm, laid-back space where comfort and authenticity are encouraged. I understand that starting therapy can feel intimidating, and I strive to create a safe, welcoming environment where you can explore both current challenges and past experiences at your own pace.

My therapeutic approach integrates psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral (CBT) techniques. Together, we’ll explore how past experiences shape current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and identify practical steps to support balance and more fulfilling relationships.
