Brandy Queijsen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who brings 18 years of professional experience to her practice. She works with people across the lifespan, from children as young as four to older adults, and addresses a broad range of interpersonal and life challenges.

She integrates elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other modalities as appropriate to a client s situation. That flexibility allows her to address concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, addictions, eating and sleeping concerns, and a variety of attachment and abandonment-related challenges.

Brandy frames therapy as a collaborative journey and recognizes that reaching out for support can feel difficult or uncertain.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Brandy Queijsen integrates several evidence-informed approaches to help people navigate emotional and relational challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines mindfulness and values-focused work to help individuals accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful actions - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust, offering a way to address abandonment, attachment issues, and intimacy concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) centers on skills training for mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship conflicts, and impulse-related challenges.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Brandy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, preferences, and needs. She adapts techniques over time so the plan evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy with Brandy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, accommodate caregiving or mobility constraints, and maintain continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these modalities to deliver effective, coordinated treatment tailored to each person.
