About Brandy

Brandy Queijsen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who supports people facing trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, addictions, parenting challenges, relationship and intimacy concerns, and a range of other life struggles. She speaks directly and kindly, helping clients take practical steps toward more balanced days. Brandy works from Florida and brings 18 years of practice to each conversation.

Her style is adaptable and straightforward. She listens first and then builds a plan that reflects each person’s situation and goals.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, clearer communication, and manageable ways to cope when things feel overwhelming. Brandy draws from several well-established approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She blends techniques to match what people need, such as emotion regulation skills, values-based action, or improving patterns of connection.

She has extensive experience addressing complicated issues like abandonment, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment problems, blended family challenges, eating and body-image struggles, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and trauma-related difficulties. Brandy emphasizes practical tools, steady support, and clear communication as part of the work.

People who choose to meet with her can expect a calm, direct presence and a focus on everyday solutions. The work is collaborative, paced to personal readiness, and aimed at creating small, lasting changes that make daily life easier.

Online approaches that match your needs

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, even when feelings or fear get in the way. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to manage strong emotions and improve relationships.

Choosing the right method is part of the work. The therapist partners with each person to decide which approaches fit their goals and preferences. That process is collaborative and can shift over time as needs change.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options let people fit sessions into busy schedules, check in between meetings, and maintain continuity of care when life is unpredictable. Licensed professionals can use these formats to teach skills, practice conversations, and track progress over time.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
