She works with concerns ranging from grief and trauma to parenting strain and addictive behaviors. Brittney also supports people dealing with ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues. She focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about what matters to them.

Mindfulness strategies and motivational interviewing are woven in to support change and build motivation. With 11 years of experience and licensure as an LCSW, Brittney brings a steady, relatable approach to sessions. She aims to help people regain confidence, clarify life purpose, and rebuild connections after loss or betrayal.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy centers on each person's concerns and priorities. Brittney focuses on listening, reflecting what she hears, and helping clients steer sessions toward the issues they name. This approach supports work on relationships, self-esteem, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. Brittney uses CBT tools to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors that ease anxiety, depression, or work stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills. Those tools can be useful for strong emotions, relationship conflicts, and coping during big transitions. Finding the right approach is part of the process. Brittney will collaborate with each person to test ideas and decide what works best for their goals and daily life. She tailors techniques based on what the client prefers and how they respond over time. Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow check-ins during breaks at work. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where their challenges happen, with the therapist's guidance on how to apply tools between meetings.
