Meet Your Therapist

Hi, I’m Brandee Evans, M.A., LPC-Associate, supervised by Ana Collazo, LPC-S. I’m a therapist, wife, mother of three, and proud military mom to two sons who serve in the United States Air Force. My life experiences have given me a deep appreciation for family, resilience, transition, sacrifice, and the many roles we carry while trying to care for ourselves and the people we love.

I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can finally exhale. You don’t have to walk through the door with the perfect words, a clear goal, or everything figured out. You simply have to come as you are.

My therapeutic style is warm, authentic, compassionate, and gently challenging. I enjoy helping clients look beneath the surface and understand the “why” behind their emotions, behaviors, relationships, and patterns. Together, we can identify what may be keeping you stuck, strengthen the parts of you that have helped you survive, and create healthier ways of moving forward.

As an EMDR therapist, I have a special interest in helping clients work through trauma, painful experiences, triggers, and negative beliefs that continue to influence how they see themselves and navigate the world. I also integrate trauma-informed and holistic approaches tailored to each client rather than believing therapy should look the same for everyone.

Outside of the therapy room, I’m someone who values faith, family, laughter, music, cooking, and meaningful connection. I believe those human parts of who I am help shape the genuine and down-to-earth presence I bring into my work.

At Ember Haven Counseling & Wellness, PLLC, my hope is that you find more than a therapist—you find a space where you feel safe, seen, heard, and supported as you reconnect with yourself and discover what healing and growth can look like for you.

Come as you are. We’ll figure out the next steps together.
