About me

Hi, my name is Brandie Wesley. Currently, I am a Licensed Mental Health Practitioner in the state of Nebraska and North Carolina.

I have been in the mental health field for 20 years in a variety of settings. My experience ranges from working in a juvenile detention center, drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers, community mental health centers, psychiatric residential treatment facilities, and outpatient counseling centers. My primary focus in the past 8 years has been with children and adolescents (more specifically adolescents).

I am an eclectic therapist meaning one size does not fit all. We will work together to develop your therapeutic goals. While we all know, life tends to show up whether we are ready or not, and I specialize in helping individuals, families, and groups process and deal with those issues. I understand the importance of building a strong therapeutic relationship that is genuine and promotes growth. While I have a direct approach, I am also warm and caring. I want to ensure that my clients become the best version of themselves.

Brandie is great. I’ve been with her for almost 2 years now and she always has a lot of helpful advice and is a great listener. She knows me very well at this point and I’ve come a long way.

I had a wonderful experience with Brandie. She is absolutely professional and yet it feels like you're talking to a good friend. I can sincerely say that this was the first therapy experience I've ever had that I could confidently recommend to someone. Brandie listened, offered clarity when I needed it, and helped me see how I can take care of myself (even after the therapy experience was over). She is also incredibly funny and genuine! Thank you so much, Brandie.

I had initial trepidations about a counselling session, but thought I would give it a try as my methods were not producing desirable results. It very easy to communicate with Brandie. Prior to our first video session, she communicated with me and expeditiously, responded to my questions. The face to face session was wonderful! After introductions, her professional yet warm and friendly demeanor, made it easy to open up and talk. I liked the opening questions as well that allow the session and the sharing to be facilitated. I did talk and shared without hesitation, without a feeling of being precipitously judged. Her guidance helped me to consider options and techniques I may have overlooked. Thank you Brandi, thank you teencounseling.com!
i think she made me feel so at ease, it was like talking with an old friend.
I would definitely recommend her to any person who needs a listening ear and a any cannot believe I just openly shared things with her as though even prior to our first video conferencing sessions. . From the introductions to the beginning questions to get conversation going, it was seemless for me and truly, I am not really a person

Brandie is awesome, she listens and gives me feedback. Other counselors I have seen and met was met with silence after I state what my issues for the week were. I have confidence in Brandie and the role she will play as my counselor.

We only had three sessions so far but I found them very helpful. Brandie is professional but approachable, pays attention to client needs, and is clearly invested in the success of her clients. I was worried at first whether an American counsellor would be able to relate to my UK-related issues but that was not a problem at all.
