About Bri-Anna
Bri-Anna Bostic is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, relationship concerns, and ADHD. Bri-Anna writes plainly and keeps sessions grounded in practical steps that fit everyday life.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen closely and follow what matters most to the person in front of her. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to map thoughts and behaviors and develop concrete coping skills. Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach when people are weighing big changes or need help finding motivation to act.
Her background includes work in school and community settings where she supported people during major transitions and stressful periods. That experience informs a straightforward style that focuses on what the client wants to change and how to get there in small steps. Sessions often cover skill building for stress and anxiety, communication strategies for relationship issues, and practical planning around life changes.
Clients can expect conversations that move from understanding to action. Bri-Anna pays attention to patterns that cause repeated problems and helps create experiments to try different approaches. She also talks through coping tools for mood, focus, and self-worth concerns.
If someone is unsure how to begin, she asks concrete questions about current struggles, daily routines, and short-term goals. That information guides clear next steps and a simple plan for follow-up.
BHow sessions work
How Bri-Anna uses CBT and Motivational Interviewing online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening first and following what matters most to the client. The therapist reflects concerns, clarifies priorities, and helps people decide what to work on next. This approach is useful for sorting feelings and setting practical goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, maps how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Sessions use simple exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, shift unhelpful thinking, and build coping skills for depression and stress. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck about making a change; it uses guided questions to uncover personal reasons to act and to plan manageable next steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Bri-Anna will discuss what fits the client's goals and try different methods as needed. The decision about what to focus on is collaborative and adjusts over time based on what helps most.
