Brae Vlaj, Therapist

Brae enjoys working with children, adolescents, and young adults with a variety of mental health and behavioral concerns. She has experience in working with clients with ADHD, ASD, attachment issues, anxiety, self-esteem related issues, and a history of trauma. Brae uses a client-centered approach to counseling, so she believes that you are the expert of your own life, and she is here as a guide to help you along the way. Brae will tailor her approach to fit your unique needs and preferences, as she recognizes that you are one of a kind with unique strengths and challenges. Brae also uses play-based strategies, including art and games, to help younger clients communicate their feelings and practice new skills. She finds this approach is a fun and effective way to engage in counseling while also allowing for a collaborative and comfortable space where they feel safe and free to express themselves. It is important that children, adolescents, and parents feel empowered, understood, and respected. Your child and family’s mental health is important to Brae, and you deserve a safe and non-judgmental environment to help you grow and learn new ways to enjoy life.

Outside of work, Brae enjoys spending time with her husband, her fluffy dog, and her rabbit. She also enjoys baking, crocheting, gardening, and family board game nights.
