SILA RISING

Nice to meet you!

Hi, I’m Brandi — a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Fort Worth, Texas.I help people navigate challenges and move toward the life they want. If you’ve still got even a shred of hope, that’s enough to start. I’m here to walk with you through the tough stuff — and help you find healing, growth, and direction along the way.Why "Sila Rising"?
The name Sila Rising reflects what I believe therapy is truly about — a space where you can rise above what's holding you back and step into your own strength. "Sila" (see-luh) means empowered, and through our work together, my goal is to help you feel more confident, self-aware, and in control of your journey.

Therapy with me

As a Solution-Focused Therapist, I empower you to discover practical, forward-moving solutions to whatever you’re facing.Whether you’re dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, or the emotional weight of life transitions, I’m here to support you.In our first session, we’ll explore what brought you to therapy, clarify your goals, and outline how we’ll work together to achieve them. From there, we’ll build a path forward — one that supports your mental health, growth, and overall well-being.You’re not alone.
