Briana Lyndon (She/her/hers) comes to B Balanced from San Francisco, California! Briana embodies a steadfast passion for mental health and works to support her clients on their mental health journeys. She appreciates that therapy is not a one-size-fits-all profession, so she enjoys finding the method and flow that works for each individual client, couple, and family. A Licensed Marriage & Family Therapy Associate, Briana earned her master’s degree in Integral Counseling Psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies located in the heart of San Francisco, where she lived for 8 years before relocating to Winston Salem in 2021.

Before moving to Winston Salem, Briana worked as a therapist at a Community Mental Health agency in Downtown San Francisco, serving a varied population. Through this work, Briana developed a deep appreciation for social justice, and she carries that into every aspect of her life. Her therapy framework is rooted in a feminist and liberation psychology perspective, which informs her work both with clients and in the world.
