About Brianna

Brianna Owen is a licensed professional counselor who brings 20 years of experience to people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, life transitions, parenting concerns, and anger. She works with clients in Georgia and uses straightforward, skill-based tools to help them find steadier footing. Her manner is practical and warm, with room for faith when clients want that included.

She asks practical questions about what is and isn't working now.

Background and approach

Sessions often focus on learning specific skills to manage strong emotions and reduce anxiety. Skills come from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and problem-solving strategies come from Solution-Focused work. When trauma is part of the story, she uses Trauma-Focused Therapy methods to help people process upsetting events at a manageable pace.

She pays attention to patterns that start in family history or blended family situations and to how attachment affects day-to-day relationships. Her work also covers practical life challenges like career shifts, caregiving stress, pregnancy and childbirth concerns, and issues that arise in midlife or young adulthood. She helps clients break down big problems into smaller steps they can act on.

Brianna integrates wellness habits into therapy, including body and movement awareness and healthier relationships with food when relevant. She blends a systemic view with solution-focused planning so clients leave with clear next steps they can try between sessions.

Online approaches that teach skills and address trauma

Dialectical Behavior Therapy is a skills-based approach that helps people manage intense emotions with concrete strategies for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. It is useful when someone swings between extremes or feels overwhelmed by feelings.

Solution-Focused Therapy zeroes in on small, practical steps that move a person toward their goals. Sessions often identify what is already working and build brief action plans to create change without getting stuck on long histories.

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people process painful experiences in a paced way so those memories stop driving daily reactions. The approach aims to make difficult memories easier to live with while teaching coping tools for triggers and flashbacks.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit. Adjustments are made as therapy progresses so the plan matches what actually helps.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to get support. Video calls let people meet face to face; phone sessions can fit into busy days; live chat and text messaging work for check-ins and shorter conversations. These options make it easier to keep momentum and use skills between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Solution-Focused Therapy

Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Work that takes difficult past experience into account and moves at a pace you set, with attention to feeling steady before anything else. Being in your own space can make that easier for some people.
