Welcome, Brielle!

Bristlecone Therapy is happy to announce that Brielle Smith has joined our team as a clinical associate!

In her years as a marriage and family therapist, Brielle has served clients both domestically and internationally, most recently having spent time in Budapest to receive advanced training in Emotionally Focused Therapy and work with Hungarian couples in need. Brielle is also a PREPARE/ENRICH facilitator, having received certification to counsel couples who are contemplating taking the plunge into marriage.

As a BCT clinical associate, Brielle specializes in working with the following clientele:

• Couples struggling to connect

• Women with histories of trauma

• Teens launching into adulthood

Brielle's approach to therapy involves making use of an Internal Family Systems perspective along with body-based awareness exercises derived from Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. As a person of faith, Brielle is also curious to explore with clients how their religious/spiritual beliefs and practices help or hinder their growth and healing.

If Brielle sounds like she could be a good fit for your needs, feel free to reach out to her today at 630-492-1388 x702 or brielle@bristleconetherapy.com.
