About Brandi

Brandi Garner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado who uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people facing stress and life changes. She focuses on anxiety, grief, intimacy-related concerns, relationship and family problems, and struggles with addiction and ADHD. Brandi aims to create a respectful, sex-positive space where clients can talk frankly about hard topics and begin to make changes that feel manageable.

She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and build values-driven action. Brandi also draws on attachment-based work to understand how early relationships affect current patterns. Sessions are straightforward and focused on skills people can use between meetings.

Brandi has five years of professional experience working with a range of concerns including caregiving stress, communication breakdowns, end-of-life topics, and compassion fatigue. She helps people weigh options, set goals, and practice new approaches to recurring problems. Conversations are direct and supportive, aimed at reducing overwhelm and improving daily functioning.

Therapy is offered in English and delivered remotely through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Brandi works with each person to choose formats and strategies that fit their routine and needs. The goal is steady progress, not overnight fixes.

How CBT, ACT, and Attachment Work Online

Brandi often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients spot unhelpful thoughts and try different reactions. CBT focuses on practical tools like thought records and small behavior experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood.

She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes noticing difficult feelings without getting stuck and taking actions based on personal values. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns shape current intimacy and communication, and it helps people build clearer expectations and boundaries.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods match a person’s goals, preferences, and daily life. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches to address specific problems and real-world challenges.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skills practice, while phone calls can fit a quick check-in or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text messaging can support short updates, homework check-ins, or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to get help around work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
