About Brandy

Brandy Colson is a licensed clinical social worker with LCSW and CSW credentials and more than a decade of experience helping people navigate difficult life transitions.

Background and approach

Based in Florida, she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy to address stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, family conflicts, parenting concerns, and ADHD among other areas of focus. Her practice emphasizes practical strategies and collaborative problem-solving to build resilience and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily life.

Colson approaches counseling with respect for each person’s knowledge of their own experience, offering guidance that highlights strengths and actionable steps toward change. She also works with clients facing grief, relationship challenges, career questions, compassion fatigue, and a range of additional issues including substance-related concerns, communication and control problems, and end-of-life caregiving stress.

Her style blends structured evidence-based techniques with a solution-oriented mindset to help clients set goals and move forward at a sustainable pace.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Care

Brandy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused Therapy as central approaches in her online practice. CBT helps identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, offering concrete skills for anxiety, depression, stress, and self-esteem challenges. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on processing and reducing the impact of traumatic memories and symptoms, using targeted techniques to support recovery from abuse and other traumatic events.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to clarify goals, review options, and tailor methods to match individual needs and preferences. Over time the plan may be adjusted to emphasize skills training, trauma work, or solution-focused steps depending on progress and priorities.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or manage care from a distance. These options allow licensed professionals to deliver structured interventions, homework assignments, and ongoing support while offering flexibility in pace and communication style.
