About Brandi

Brandi Garner is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who uses mindfulness as a core part of sessions. She brings five years of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and intimacy-related concerns. Her manner is sex positive and grounded in practical support. Brandi helps people manage life transitions and work through relationship and family struggles. She also supports those coping with ADHD, addiction, caregiving strain, and career-related stress. Sessions focus on everyday steps clients can try between appointments. Her approach combines mindfulness with evidence-informed methods like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Attachment perspectives and client-centered listening shape how she responds to relationship and intimacy questions. Brandi aims to create a calm space for honest conversation and problem solving. She often helps with communication problems, codependency, commitment worries, and issues that come from family of origin patterns. Brandi also works with people dealing with loss, end-of-life concerns, and aging-related stress. Practical planning and emotional processing are both part of the work. People meet her to learn coping tools, reduce reactivity, and build routines that fit daily life. She emphasizes small, achievable changes rather than big overnight shifts. To start, she asks people about goals and current struggles so sessions can be tailored to real needs.

How mindfulness and evidence-based approaches work online

Mindfulness Therapy in Brandi's practice focuses on simple, present-moment skills. Clients learn short exercises to ground attention, reduce reactivity, and notice patterns that keep stress and anxiety active. These skills are useful for grief, caregiving strain, and everyday overwhelm. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small steps toward them. It emphasizes noticing difficult thoughts without letting those thoughts dictate action, which can help with avoidance, addiction, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns shape current trust and intimacy; this perspective is often used when communication or closeness feels stuck. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Brandi collaborates with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts practices over time based on what helps most. Please confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking, because formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. They also let people practice skills in the routines where they will use them most.
