About Briana
Briana Cunningham is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arkansas with two decades of clinical experience. She works with adults facing a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, addiction, and challenges related to self-esteem and intimacy.
Background and approach
Her practice also addresses issues such as eating struggles, anger management, compassion fatigue, ADHD, and the stresses of life transitions. Her approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques with motivational interviewing and systems-informed thinking to tailor interventions to each person's situation.
She emphasizes respect, empathy, and compassion as the foundation for change and uses practical strategies to help clients build coping skills, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and move toward goals. Briana frames the therapeutic process as collaborative and works at a pace that suits each client's readiness to change.
Clients seeking support can expect a therapist who values clarity and real-world tools alongside thoughtful emotional care. She invites those ready to begin work on healing and growth to reach out and take the next step toward improved well-being.
Practical therapeutic approaches for online care
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. It often involves learning concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and day-to-day stressors, as well as developing alternative ways of responding to difficult situations.
Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative conversational style that helps clarify personal values and increase readiness for change. It can be useful when someone feels uncertain about changing behaviors related to addictions, health habits, or other life adjustments.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and this therapist works with clients to determine what methods best match their goals, preferences, and current challenges. Treatment is collaborative, with techniques adapted over time based on progress and client feedback.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity when life changes. These options allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support and practical tools in formats that suit different communication styles and needs.
