Hi! I'm Breanna Reed, a board-certified Art Therapist, Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and Clinical Supervisor. My work has grown into a deep passion for helping individuals heal from complex trauma, dissociation, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), chronic illness, anxiety, and spiritual wounds through an integrative approach that honors the whole person—mind, body, and spirit.
As a follower of Jesus, I believe healing is about more than reducing symptoms. It's about restoring connection—to ourselves, to others, and ultimately to God. For clients who desire it, I intentionally integrate Christian faith, prayer, Scripture, creative expression, and evidence-based trauma therapies into the counseling process. Watching God meet people in the deepest places of their stories has become one of the greatest privileges of my work.
I am honored to partner with Embers of Hope to support individuals navigating complex trauma and dissociation. Through this collaboration, I continue to deepen my training in trauma-informed care while walking alongside clients with compassion, curiosity, and hope.
While my Christian faith deeply shapes who I am as a therapist, I never impose my beliefs on those I serve. I welcome individuals from all backgrounds and spiritual perspectives and strive to create a safe, respectful, and judgment-free space where every client feels seen, heard, and valued.
In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a professor at Bethel University, where I teach both undergraduate and graduate counseling students. I am passionate about mentoring the next generation of therapists to practice with excellence, creativity, and compassion.
