Brian Brosnan, LCSW — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Brian!

Life brings us challenges, decisions, and transitions where we need some guidance, perspective, and support. I have shared many people's journeys through relationships, substance use disorders, family dynamics, and mental health challenges. This means you are in good hands.

My focus

I endeavor, in every client relationship, to de-mystify the daunting prospect of change, empowering personal choice in difficult circumstances through guided self-exploration.

My approach

Together, we will create a fun, yet straightforward and solution-based environment for managing life's challenges and thriving while overcoming them.

My communication style

My communication style promotes creative engagement through experiential learning and assists individuals, couples, and families in gaining a fresh perspective through focused work that brings lasting results.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have remained in the helping professions by using my core beliefs of hope and that everyone can change. My clients reaffirm this every day.

My goals for you

Building a therapeutic relationship is the key to success with any approach. During our initial sessions, we will delve deeply into the challenges at hand and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back.

Our first session

Provide clients with advanced and effective treatment options for relationship, mental health, and substance use disorders. I am adept at assessing and diagnosing complex psychiatric, social, and/or emotional conditions and collaborating with you, the client, toward solutions that are achievable and measurable.
