I’m Brii (she/her/ella), a bilingual & trauma-informed clinical therapist, art therapist, certified yoga teacher, and multidisciplinary artist practicing in Austin, TX.

I am also a first-generation, queer, bicultural Latina, mother, and lifelong student.

My passion for healing has included working with both English and Spanish-speaking children, young adults, and adults in community mental health care and residential care in both inpatient and outpatient treatment settings.

My goal as a therapist is to collaborate with you on your journey. I approach clinical work from a trauma-informed, healing-centered perspective and I believe in the power of healing through storytelling and creative expression. I am passionate about the intersections of mental health, advocacy, and the process of creating to explore the relationship with the self and others. Particular care and attention is given to intersectionality; the interconnectedness of our social identities (age, race, ethnicity, gender, language, class, disability, and religion, among others) is at the core of everyday experience, life stories, and bodies and that it informs our movement, relationships, and place in the world. I strive to practice from an anti-oppressive framework that affirms and celebrates all of my clients’ identities. But, most importantly, I am here to meet you exactly where you are and to help you explore the power you hold within.

I’m an advocate of using art as a medium for nurturing the soul, healing the inner self, and for deep self-care. I am an active member of professional associations, including the American Art Therapy Association and the South Texas Art Therapy Association. I have also been actively making art on my own time and have exhibited my work in San Francisco, Chicago, and Austin.

In my personal life, you can find me spending time with my family, exploring spring-fed swimming holes, hiking and running, practicing yoga, and making art (which you can check out more here!).

I’m so happy you are here.
