She completed her post-doctoral training at Truman VA in Columbia, MO, where she specialized in the assessment and treatment of veterans with co-morbid TBI and PTSD.

Dr. Briggs believes in a client-centered treatment approach.

She is proficient in the provision of two evidence-based trauma-focused interventions: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) and Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE). She often incorporates mindfulness/meditation, skills building, and psychoeducation into treatment.
