Brianna Shuman, LCMFT, CCTP-II, CMNCS – Couples Therapy with Depth and Diversity

If you and your partner are navigating intimacy concerns, exploring non-traditional relationship structures, or working through the impact of trauma, Brianna offers a supportive and non-judgmental space to help you reconnect and heal. Her approach is ideal for couples seeking therapy that acknowledges identity, sexuality, life transitions, and the deeper emotional layers that shape their connection.

Brianna is particularly helpful for couples who:

  • Are experiencing challenges with intimacy, desire, sexual communication, or rebuilding closeness

  • Are exploring consensual non-monogamy, kink, or other non-traditional relationship structures

  • Have trauma histories — individual or shared — that influence the relational dynamic

  • Want a therapist who integrates mind–body awareness, emotional wellbeing, and relational systems

  • Prefer a sex-positive, kink-affirming, and LGBTQ+ affirming environment that honors identity and diversity

What sessions with Brianna look like:
Your work together will focus on clarifying your relational goals — intimacy, communication, emotional connection — and exploring the barriers that make those goals feel out of reach, such as trauma, shame, identity stress, or life transitions. Brianna offers structured guidance through communication strategies, intimacy exercises, and relational nourishment practices tailored to your unique relationship identity and needs.
