Meet Brandi Barnett

Licensed Professional Counselor

# 80522

Hi there, I’m Brandi Barnett. My journey into the counseling world is a story of calling, compassion, and transformation. It wasn’t a straight path, but every step brought me closer to the meaningful work I do today.


With a background in theology and nonprofit management, I originally set out to serve communities in leadership and service-oriented roles. But life has a way of redirecting us toward our true purpose. While supporting people through crisis interventions and navigating systems designed to help those in need, I saw firsthand the impact trauma has on individuals—and the beauty that comes from healing and resilience.


That’s when I knew counseling was where I was meant to be. I earned a Master of Arts in Counseling and pursued specialized training in trauma-informed care, EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy, among others. My work has spanned supporting survivors of violent crimes, guiding those navigating grief, and fostering recovery for individuals affected by human trafficking and other intense life struggles.



I’ve also had the privilege of working with high-profile clients, including professionals navigating careers in the public eye. I understand the unique challenges this presents—from maintaining privacy to managing the pressures of performance and success. I genuinely enjoy walking alongside these clients, offering a confidential space where they can explore their challenges, develop tools for well-being, and reconnect with their personal values.


What lights me up is helping people uncover their strength in the face of life’s challenges. Whether I’m leading therapy intensives, collaborating with school districts to support trauma-informed practices, or speaking on mental health topics, my goal is always the same: to create spaces where healing is possible, transformation is celebrated, and hope can thrive.


I believe that out of struggle, beauty emerges—and I count it as a privilege to walk alongside others as they step into that beauty.
