We have a wonderful team of care providers and therapists at BRIA. All of our health care providers are licensed, vetted experts in women’s mental health care. After you do a MINI Assessment, your Care Coordinator will have an idea about your needs and will connect you with the right type of therapy and match you with a suitable therapist. One of the key factors to successful therapy is the relationship between a patient and their provider. If you feel that your therapist is not able to meet your needs, please reconnect with one of your BRIA Care Coordinator and she can discuss changing your plan with you.

Sometimes parents have trouble sleeping because their children are not sleeping well. Whether you prefer a gentle or more assertive approach, the BRIA sleep consultant will listen to your needs and help you learn to regulate babies’ and toddlers’ sleep patterns. This will help your child and will help you get the sleep you need to feel better.
Even though telehealth and virtual therapy only became popular and widely available during the COVID pandemic, they have been around for many years. Medical research has shown that virtual care for mental health issues is as effective as in-person care in many situations, including for the treatment of anxiety and depression, and other mental health concerns. The data show that people who use virtual care feel connected to their online therapists and that they actually get better at the same rates as they would if they saw their therapist in person. For many, the use of virtual care reduces some of the burdens associated with in-person care, such as scheduling time off work or arranging childcare, and the cost and time required for travel. The increased availability of online therapists and telepsychiatry also allow people to connect with expert care providers without the same geographical limitations.
If you are in an acute crisis situation, feeling suicidal, or are unable to keep yourself safe, you will need to seek immediate care. In these circumstances, an in-person assessment in a local hospital Emergency Department is usually necessary. Your BRIA care provider will talk to you about the limitations of online therapy or telepsychiatry for your particular circumstances, as well as when to seek in-person care if online therapy is not suitable.
