Dr. Briana Schiff, PsyD, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist #148536

If you have ever felt abandoned, alienated, angry, or helpless, you know those feelings can be excruciating. It might feel like you have no choice over your reactions and that you’re doomed to be anxious forever. Or, it can feel like your only choice is to run into the woods where you can’t hurt anyone and no one can affect you. My work is rooted in the belief that distress is a signal and that all emotions have purpose. Using Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) I help clients sort out internal messages so they can have the space to choose and learn who they truly are.

A little bit about me – I’m one part goofball, one part intellectual, and a whole lot of nurturing. I believe wholeheartedly that softness and emotional expression do not equate to weakness, and that trauma can be painful but can also be the path to empowerment and fierce resilience.

I want you to find the therapist that fits you best. If my words resonate with you, or if you are looking for a therapist who specializes in childhood, parental, or sexual trauma, body or food shame, or kink/BDSM, please contact me. Together, we will go spelunking into the depths of your inner world, and emerge with renewed peace and confidence.
