Hi! I'm Brianna Rendin, LPC. I am glad you are here!
I approach the therapeutic process with my clients from a place of curiosity and compassion. I start the counseling experience with unconditional positive regard. My job is to learn about you and hear more about who you are and how you are looking to grow before I offer suggestions or invite in activities.
I work with individuals who are navigating concerns related to Anxiety, Social Anxiety, Post Partum Anxiety and Depression, Parenting, trauma, and other life stressors.
For parents, I can help by providing more information on child development and brainstorm ideas that feel authentic to you and your family.
I also provide play therapy services, and I have found this to be really helpful for kids ages 3 through 12 years old. Play therapy has been proven to help improve the social emotional functioning of children overall.
I am currently accepting clients for daytime hours between 9 am - 3 pm on T, Thur, Friday. I offer telehealth and in person services. I see clients in person on Fridays. If you are a mom, you are welcome to bring your baby to the counseling session as long as they are not talking yet.
Expressive counseling services means that I incorporate art, sand tray, and journaling when appropriate. I am not an art therapist but trained in many play based art activities that help provide clarity when it comes to difficult thoughts and feelings.
I received my master's in education and human development and post-master's in counseling at the George Washington University. I am currently a member of the Association for Play Therapy in the state of VA and under the supervision of Tanya Hull, LPC, RPT-S for my play therapy certification. I am licensed to practice in the state of VA.
