About Brittany
Brittany Bargiel is a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps people dealing with stress and anxiety. She meets individuals where they are and focuses on practical steps to reduce worry and build stronger relationships. Her tone is caring and straightforward, aimed at people looking for realistic change.
Brittany draws from several therapeutic approaches and builds a plan with each person. She uses tools from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach coping skills for intense emotions.
Background and approach
She also uses elements of the Gottman Method to address communication struggles and improve how partners interact. Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help people slow down and notice thoughts without getting swept up by them. Solution-Focused Therapy helps keep conversations goal-directed and focused on small, achievable steps.
These methods are adapted to the person rather than applied in a fixed way. Brittany emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion in her work. She pays attention to what matters most to each person and adjusts her approach accordingly.
Expect a collaborative atmosphere where the therapist and client set goals together. With five years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania as an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - she supports people working through family conflict, low self-esteem, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
The first steps include a short questionnaire and scheduling a session to see if the fit feels right.
Practical approaches for online therapy and skill building
Dialectical Behavior Therapy focuses on teaching skills to manage intense emotions and reduce reactivity. Online sessions can cover breathing, distress tolerance, and emotion regulation exercises that people can practice between meetings. The Gottman Method concentrates on improving communication patterns and reducing conflict. In remote sessions, couples or individuals work on turn-taking, repair attempts, and concrete habits that change how conversations unfold. Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without immediately reacting. Simple mindfulness practices can be guided over video or audio and used to lower daily stress and increase present-moment awareness. Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then pick techniques that fit those needs. Plans are adjusted as progress is made so the approach stays relevant and useful. Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and practice skills in real time. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or fit short updates into a workday. These options support consistent progress while offering scheduling flexibility.Questions people ask
