Hello! My name is Brianna Zurawka. I am a Licensed Independent Social Worker based in Ohio. I have a Master’s Degree in Social Work and a Bachelor’s Degree in Family Studies, both from Miami University in Ohio. I have practiced in a variety of settings for over 8 years, including schools, hospitals, virtually, and community mental health agencies.
Working with children and families has always been a passion of mine. I am an enthusiastic advocate for child and family health and bringing high quality prevention and trauma-informed services and solutions to some of the most pressing issues facing vulnerable children, families, and communities.
My experience includes working with children as young as 18 months old, adolescents, families, and adults. I specialize in treating a wide range of mental health concerns including Autism Spectrum Disorder, trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, parenting issues, and relationship struggles. I am trained as a PLAY Project Consultant, have Youth Mental Health First Aid training, and am an Accredited Provider for Triple P: Positive Parenting Program.
The foundation of my therapeutic philosophy is my commitment to practicing with positive unconditional regard. I strive to always create a safe and welcoming environment where clients feel like they can be themselves. My approach is holistic, addressing not only the immediate symptoms, but also the underlying issues that contribute to your struggles. I also have a client-centered approach and tailor my approach to meet you where you are. I utilize a variety of techniques and skills drawn from recognized therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused, Psychoeducation, Mindfulness and Relaxation.
