Education —
Bri earned a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Naropa University, with a specialization in Somatic Counseling: Dance/Movement Therapy. She earned her degrees in Psychology and Dance & Choreography from Virginia Commonwealth University.
Experience —
Bri has worked with neurodivergent children and adolescents since 2010, where she first developed a passion for mental health, social justice, and movement as a healing modality. While completing her undergraduate degrees, Bri worked at the university’s Autism Center and simultaneously volunteered her time as the co-founder and President of a 501(c)3 non-profit philanthropic organization, providing access to meal nourishment, education, advocacy and medical care to children in need globally. While earning her Master’s degree, she completed practicum at a juvenile detention partial treatment program where she had the opportunity to further integrate a culturally-affirming approach with her passion for working with adolescents and adults navigating systemic and intergenerational traumas.
Bri completed her Master’s level internship at a Colorado community health facility, where she had the chance to work with adults impacted by HIV and navigate a wide array of mental health challenges, including: chronic illness and disability, addictions & substance use issues, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, and complex trauma of all kinds.
Following completion of her Master’s degree, Bri worked in a school setting, providing behavioral and emotional support to children under the age of five and their families, particularly the Latine community & native Spanish speakers. Over the last decade Bri has been grateful to work with individuals and groups of a diverse range of ages, backgrounds and cultures.
Therapeutic Style —
As a somatic and dance/movement therapist, Bri intentionally works with movement, noting feeling as a body-based experience first. She understands the importance of the narratives, words, and stories but finds that there is a need to also acknowledge the significance of the sensations, feelings, and movements. Healing is often first regarded as an unpleasant and serious process without also highlighting the importance of creativity, wonder, and play for healing to be possible!
Bri specializes in culturally-affirming, somatic, and social justice-oriented therapy, particularly relating to complex trauma resolution, multicultural identity, grief, boundaries, sexual expression, and sexuality. She will work to co-create a space with you where you feel supported to explore your goals, boundaries, growth, and needs imperfectly, together.
