About Brandy
Brandy Stevens is an Alaska licensed professional counselor with ten years in the counseling field. She began practicing in 2017 and earned full licensure as an LPC in 2021. Brandy has experience supporting people with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, and struggles with self-esteem and stress.
Her background includes creating and growing a residential treatment program into three locations, which gave her hands-on experience in program development and agency leadership. That work involved supporting people with complex needs, including co-occurring disorders and addiction. She has practical experience navigating systems such as probation, parole, and the Office of Children’s Services.
More recently Brandy shifted toward one-on-one work to offer more direct, individualized care. She emphasizes that clients know their stories best and brings a collaborative stance to sessions. Her focus areas include attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, dissociation, and related life challenges.
In sessions she aims to support and encourage clients as they work toward the changes they want to make. Brandy helps people identify strengths, set practical goals, and take steps that fit their lives. Those looking for support with addiction, trauma, or mood concerns will find a clinician with experience in both agency and individual settings.
Brandy provides services in English and accepts international clients. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to start, then schedule according to her availability.
How therapeutic methods translate to online care
Brandy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes working with addiction and co-occurring issues by building concrete coping skills and relapse prevention strategies to manage cravings and triggers. Another approach centers on trauma-informed care, helping people process difficult events at a pace that feels manageable while developing grounding tools for anxiety and dissociation.Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Brandy will work with each person to identify which techniques match their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adapts the plan as progress is made.
