About Brian

Dr. Brian Green brings an evidence-based approach to therapy, drawing on years of clinical practice to help people manage stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression.

Background and approach

He emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care while shaping conversations and treatment plans around each client’s unique needs. Dr.

Green frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at supporting growth, improving functioning, and building coping skills for life’s changes. Licensed as an LCSW in California (CA LCSW 29891), he has focused work addressing compassion fatigue, addictions, grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleep difficulties, career challenges, and ADHD among other areas.

Additional interests include adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, attachment and communication problems, family-of-origin dynamics, and issues such as hoarding, impulsivity, and isolation. With five years of documented experience, he invites clients to take the first step toward greater wellbeing and offers tailored guidance throughout the therapeutic journey.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care



Dr. Green uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical skills and symptom relief. One common approach is skill-building therapy that teaches concrete coping strategies for anxiety, stress, and attention challenges - helping clients manage daily tasks and emotional reactions. Another is trauma-informed work that prioritizes safety, pacing, and processing of difficult experiences in ways that reduce distress and improve functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; he collaborates with each client to identify which methods best match their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns. That collaborative stance allows techniques to be adapted over time so treatment remains aligned with progress and changing needs.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats can make it easier to attend sessions from home or work, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent support when managing symptoms like sleep disruption, anxiety, or challenges related to ADHD.
