Breanna Cox
Entering therapy can feel challenging, but with Breanna, clients will find a safe, welcoming space to come as they are. She specializes in supporting individuals with anxiety, neurodivergence, and those navigating overlapping roles in life.
Breanna takes a trauma-informed, strength-based approach, often incorporating somatic experiencing and expressive therapies. She believes creativity—through art and other expressive methods—can be a powerful bridge to exploring the places where clients feel “stuck,” helping them reconnect with themselves, even if they don’t consider themselves artists.
For Breanna, healing is a journey of returning to one’s authentic self. She provides a compassionate, intuitive, and empathetic space where clients can feel safe to grow, transform, and build a deeper connection to their lived experiences. Those ready to explore their story and strengthen their relationship with themselves are warmly encouraged to connect with her.
