Brynn Huyssen, Psy.D.

At Brookside Behavioral Wellness, we create a safe, non-judgmental space where we will work collaboratively towards your goals. Beginning therapy can be a challenging decision, but it can provide relief from painful thoughts and feelings, foster a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships, and lead to a greater sense of fulfillment from your life. INDIVIDUAL THERAPY: Therapy can help you navigate anxiety, depression, life challenges and transitions, heal from emotional pain and manage stress. We will tailor each session to your individual goals and together we will uncover patterns, develop practical coping strategies, and help you reconnect with your inner-resilience. Individual therapy empowers you to make meaningful changes and live a more balanced, fulfilling life. TEEN THERAPY: The teen years are filled with emotional shifts, identity development, academic pressure and social dynamics - all of which can feel overwhelming. We work closely with teens to build trust and offer guidance through challenges like school transitions, family changes, and mental health struggles, while building confidence and learning the tools needed to navigate these difficult years. COUPLES THERAPY: Whether you are navigating conflict, communication breakdowns, life changes, or just want to grow closer, couples therapy offers a structured and compassionate space to explore your relationship. We work with couples of all backgrounds, orientations and stages - from long-term partnerships to those newly navigating commitment. TRAUMA INFORMED CONSULTING: We offer specialized trauma informed consulting services for hospitals, clinics, practicing medical providers, and providers in training. Our services are designed to to educate and supoort healthcare teams in becoming more trauma-informed in their policies and care delivery.
