Brian Sprayue, LMHC

For the last five years Brian has been providing therapeutic treatment to teen girls and their families, in a long term residential setting, helping guide restoration in relationships, family structure and overall mental health functioning. Brian is a generalist but does specialize in working with clients suffering from depression, anxiety, attachment issues, trauma related concerns, personality disorders, and other lifestyle issues such as LGBTQ+, gender, marriage and ENM lifestyles. Brian is accepting of and works closely with alternative lifestyle choices such as kink, poly and multi-partner dynamics.

Brian's experience with teen girls affords him skills in family relational problems, grief and loss, self-harm and suicidal ideation.

Brian practices using an emotion focused psychodynamic approach, relying heavily on the therapeutic alliance to provide experiential learning in relation to changing the core beliefs one has about themselves that lead to dysfunction, poor relationships, ineffective emotion management and poor self-image.
