About Brent
Brent Powell is an MS LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Mississippi with nine years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship strain, and family concerns. Brent also addresses issues such as attachment, commitment and control struggles, divorce and separation, and questions about life purpose.
He uses straightforward conversation to help people sort what matters most right now. Sessions focus on identifying patterns, clarifying values, and testing small changes that fit a person's everyday life. Brent draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow what clients say matters, and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Brent aims to make sessions practical. He helps clients break bigger problems into steps they can try between meetings. For relationship and family topics he listens for interaction patterns and helps individuals practice different ways of responding.
With issues like panic, social anxiety, or substance concerns, he works to build specific skills for managing symptoms and improving decision making. For people questioning their direction or purpose, he helps clarify priorities and options without pushing a single path.
Throughout his work he keeps language plain and goals concrete. People who want a clear, down-to-earth space to talk through what comes next often find his way of working fits their needs.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely to what the client says matters and shaping sessions around those priorities. This approach helps when someone is unsure what to tackle first or wants to explore values, relationships, or life purpose at a comfortable pace.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, panic, depression, and social fears because it gives clear tools to try between appointments.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. Brent treats the selection of methods as a collaborative decision based on a person's needs, goals, and preferences. He will discuss options and adjust strategies as work progresses so the plan reflects what actually helps.
Confirm the specific online session formats before booking since the profile does not list them. Online sessions can make it easier to fit work into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings, avoid being on camera, or choose a phone session when that better suits their needs.
