Background and approach

Sessions often include goal-setting, skills practice, and checking what’s working between appointments. Clients come for many concerns including depression, low self-esteem, parenting stress, grief, and help managing anger or life transitions. Brittany also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, postpartum depression, ADHD-related struggles, and career or purpose questions.

She pays attention to how symptoms affect daily routines and relationships. Her methods draw on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused plans. That mix helps people notice thoughts and habits that get in the way and then test small changes.

Motivational interviewing and dialectical behavior ideas are used when someone needs help shifting motivation or managing intense emotions. Brittany aims to make therapy a collaborative process. She listens, highlights strengths, and builds simple, realistic steps clients can use between sessions.

How her approaches work online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on a person’s strengths. The therapist follows the client's lead, asks open questions, and helps clarify what matters most so goals feel meaningful and realistic.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches simple tools to test unhelpful thoughts and change small behaviors that reduce anxiety or depression symptoms. That makes it useful for stress, anxiety, and low mood.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, brings skills for regulating intense emotions and improving distress tolerance. It offers concrete practices for managing crises and improving everyday coping. These skills can be blended into shorter work when someone needs practical emotion regulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try techniques that fit the person’s needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The work is collaborative and paced to match readiness and priorities.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone meetings, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skills coaching, phone can fit into a busy day or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can support quick check-ins or ongoing encouragement. These options make it easier to maintain consistency and build skills between appointments.
