About Brian

Brian Krause, LMHC, helps people repair connection when relationships feel strained. He works with individuals and couples facing conflict, trust wounds, anxiety, and issues around intimacy and sexuality. He draws on years of counseling experience and his background as a pastor to offer calm, steady support.

He combines Narrative ideas with attachment-based thinking to look at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. Sessions include client-centered conversation where the person leads, and practical steps to reduce stress and anxious reactivity.

Background and approach

Brian often blends these conversations with body-focused techniques learned through his clinical work. Clients come for help after betrayal, during parenting stress, or when communication keeps breaking down. He also supports those dealing with grief, career pressure, shame, or struggles around sexuality and identity.

He aims to help people notice patterns and try new ways of relating. His pastoral background shaped his listening style. That experience informs how he holds emotional material and how he talks about meaning, values, and responsibility.

He has worked as a therapist for 11 years and uses that practical experience to guide sessions. Brian emphasizes collaboration. He invites people to name goals, try small experiments between sessions, and reflect on what changes feel useful.

Therapy is paced to each person, focusing on tangible changes in how they communicate and connect. He practices in Florida and offers work that blends narrative reflection, attachment awareness, and straightforward coaching to help people move toward healthier relationships.

How Brian’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Brian uses Narrative Therapy to help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach helps surface recurring themes like shame, abandonment, or unhelpful labels so clients can try different ways of seeing their lives.

He also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to spot patterns of closeness and distance in relationships. That work focuses on how nervous-system responses show up during conflict and on learning calmer ways to connect. Client-Centered Therapy is woven through sessions to keep the person’s own goals and perspective front and center, with the therapist following the pace the client sets.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Brian will listen to what matters most, try methods that match those goals, and adjust as progress or new concerns appear. He frames therapy as a joint effort where experiments and feedback guide the path forward.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video works well for in-depth conversations and reading nonverbal signals. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, on-the-go reflection, or when someone prefers writing their thoughts over speaking. These options make it easier to match session style to life circumstances and to keep momentum between appointments.
