Briana Colton, MA, LPCC, ATR-BC

As a Board-Certified Art Therapist and Anchor Relational (formerly AIR Network) trained therapist, and I incorporate Developmental, Intersectional, and Trauma-focused lens into my practice. I believe safety, trust, honesty, creativity, and humor are essential elements in a therapeutic relationship. I utilize a client-centered and relational approach to therapy, weaving psychoeducation with introspection and self-reflection. I incorporate art therapy interventions, mindfulness techniques, and somatic and sensorimotor experiences within sessions.

I work primarily in a private practice setting, addressing individual, relational, and family trauma; anxiety/depression; grief and loss; life transitions; personal identity work; self-esteem/self-confidence; and families impacted by addiction. Treatment focuses on regulation/coping strategies, self-esteem/self-identity, changes in family structure/family conflict, adjustment disorders, stress management and caregiver wellbeing. I am Strengths-Based, Client-Centered, and informed by Adlerian psychotherapy, CBT, and narrative therapy.
