About Brandy
Brandy Queijsen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 18 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and issues connected to parenting and family relationships. Her practice also addresses concerns such as self-esteem, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, and challenges tied to life transitions.
Brandy uses a mix of practical approaches rather than a single method. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication skills. Attachment-based ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy inform how she looks at relationships and values when working through conflict or loss.
Sessions focus on concrete skills and clear goals. Clients can expect to practice tools that help manage strong feelings, improve communication, and handle everyday parenting stress. Brandy pays attention to how attachment patterns and past disruptions influence current relationships and coping choices.
She has worked with a wide range of life stages and complex concerns, including adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, and dissociation. Brandy also helps people navigate relationship difficulties, intimacy-related problems, and commitment or control issues.
Her language of work is plain and direct. She asks questions, listens for patterns, and suggests hands-on strategies to try between sessions. The focus is on usable steps that fit into everyday family life rather than abstract theory.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used and how they translate online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with life transitions, depression, and chronic worry by shifting attention toward meaningful behavior.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches practical strategies to change them. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and low mood by giving clear tools to practice between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and effective communication. Those skills are useful when strong emotions or relationship conflicts get in the way of daily life.
Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She will suggest experiments and skill practice, then adjust the plan based on what helps most.
The original biography does not list specific session formats. Please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into family life, for example by avoiding travel time, allowing a shorter check-in when days are busy, or removing the need to be on camera for every meeting. Talk with the therapist during the first scheduling steps about how sessions can be arranged to suit your routine.
