She is a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist Supervisor and provides supervision for LMFT-A’s in addition to maintaining an active client caseload. She received her Bachelors in Experimental Psychology from the University of South Carolina and her Masters in Marriage, Family and Child Counseling from Webster University. Brandy specializes in trauma related disorders and is on the Project Best roster for Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and is a Basic Certified Accelerated Resolution Therapist (ART). She primarily utilizes the CBT, ART, Client Centered, and Solution Focused models of therapy. Brandy enjoys working with adolescents, college students, and adults with various counseling needs, including but not limited to: depression and other mood disorders, anxiety disorders, phase of life issues, school/work stress, and those individuals with trauma history. Brandy believes in the power of the therapeutic relationship and strives to meet each client where they are in their healing journey. Prior to co-founding Healing Solutions in 2015, she worked in public mental health for 10 years and private practice for 3 years.

Outside of Healing Solutions, Brandy loves spending time with her daughter and 3 dogs, working on DIY home improvement projects, trying new restaurants, volunteering at her daughter’s school, sweating at a local fitness studio, and seeing musicals/Broadway shows with her girlfriends. She can never have enough coffee, or have enough time reading, gardening, being by the pool, or spending time on Edisto Island. Brandy hopes to continue to grow as a therapist, travel more often, and one day meet Reba McEntire in person!
