Bria Derrenger, Practicum Student
Supervised by Francisco Peralta, M.Ed., LPC-S, NBCC
I am a second-year graduate student in the Counseling Education program at The University of Texas at Austin and currently completing my practicum at Parkway Counseling Center. I am passionate about supporting clients through a holistic approach that thoughtfully integrates psychological principles with faith.
Originally from the DFW metroplex area, I value meaningful connection and community, both personally and professionally. I am married to my husband, Justin, and outside of the counseling room I enjoy painting, writing, hosting gatherings, and training my Goldendoodle, Iris. I also serve as the Team Leader of the Wellness Team within my church’s young adults ministry, which continues to shape my heart for emotional, spiritual, and relational well-being.
