Tree of Life Therapy

Meet Brandi

BOOK CONSULTATION

You want a therapist who gets you. One you can trust.

Opening up to someone new can be intimidating. I understand. I'm patient, and I trust the process. Everyone moves at a different pace.

I know that you aren't coming to therapy to be more stressed out, or worried that your therapist is judging you for your beliefs that might be different from theirs.

I'll spend some time really getting to know you and understanding your situation. I'll help you pinpoint your goals for therapy.

Our sessions will focus on exploration and growth. We'll assess progress to from time-to-time to make sure we're moving in the right direction.

More than anything, I want to be sure that the work we do is meaningful and valuable to you.

I understand that therapy is an investment--one that has the power to change your life. I respect you and your resources, so I strictly take-on clients that I believe I can help.

Brandi Adams, Licensed Psychotherapist

Background

I earned my Masters in Psychology from Nova Southeastern University. I've worked in hospitals, private treatment facilities, schools, and with agencies over the span of my career.  I have provided treatment for adults, children, adolescents, couples, and families struggling with a variety of issues from mild to severe.

I opened the doors to my private practice in 2015 and my physical office is located in Pompano Beach, Florida. I see clients virtually across the state of Florida, as well as in Virginia and Tennessee. I am licensed to practice therapy in all three states. I offer consulting and educational services to clients across the USA.

My practice is limited to a few areas where I believe that I can make the most impact. I love the work I do, and I strive to be a beacon of light in this sometimes murky profession.

Worth Noting

Sharing your vulnerabilities with someone you know nothing about can be intimidating. Fearing that you might be berated, or receive bad therapy because of your beliefs is enough to keep many from seeking the help that he or she needs.

For this reason, I offer transparency in my beliefs. I welcome those who feel that their beliefs don't always line up with what's being promoted by the majority of therapists in the field, and those who have been harmed by those practices. I also welcome those with different beliefs and viewpoints. My hope is that it's helpful to know where I stand.

A Few Core Beliefs and Viewpoints:

  • We are responsible for our own actions and behaviors.
  • Change is a choice that is driven by action.
  • We are who we surround ourselves with; and therefore, must choose wisely.
  • We become what we consume. This extends far beyond food.
  • We are not intended to live our lives indoors, in front of a screen, or in isolation.
  • There is no "your truth" and "my truth," only truth. Perspective does not equate with truth.
  • There are two sexes.
  • Family is the foundation of society.
  • Marriage is sacred and honorable.
  • Children are precious and must be shielded from indoctrination and exploitation.
  • We all have the right to medical freedom.
  • Discipline trumps motivation.
  • Merit promotes excellence.
  • A higher power exists. For me, this is God.

What's Next?

The next step is to request a consultation call with me.

We'll chat for about 15-20 minutes, and decide if it's a good fit to get started.
