About Bree
Bree May is a licensed mental health counselor with two decades of experience helping people make practical changes. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques while keeping conversations person-centered and focused on real goals. Bree is based in Washington and works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem struggles, and life transitions.
She offers straightforward, outcome-oriented support for people who want tools they can use right away. Sessions can focus on changing unhelpful behaviors, improving communication, or building coping skills for panic and mood symptoms.
Background and approach
Bree also brings a broader, values-based perspective for people who want to explore deeper meaning and purpose. Common concerns she addresses include family-related stress, problems with attachment or abandonment, managing impulsivity, and issues around control, guilt, or forgiveness. She also supports people dealing with caregiver strain, isolation, and the fallout of divorce or separation.
With a practical approach, Bree helps clients develop stepped plans and small experiments to test what works. She will talk through strategies for calming intense emotions, managing anger, and reducing anxiety in daily life. The work tends to be collaborative and tailored to each person’s personality and history.
Clients can expect clear goals, regular check-ins, and flexible ways to communicate between sessions when needed. Bree encourages people to take the first step toward change and offers guidance that balances immediate coping skills with longer-term growth.

Evidence-based approaches and online flexibility
Two of the approaches Bree uses are behavioral strategies and values-focused work. Behavioral strategies break problems into small actions, teach practical skills, and help people test what changes their reactions and behavior. This is useful for managing anger, impulsivity, panic attacks, and day-to-day anxiety. Values-focused work helps people clarify what matters most and make choices that match those priorities, which can reduce guilt, shame, and aimlessness.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Bree will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their style and life. She adjusts plans as progress is made so therapy stays practical and relevant to individual needs.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more convenient. Video works well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions are a good option when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging allow brief check-ins and ongoing support between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep steady progress over time.
