Background and approach

Sessions are aimed at building skills that can be used between meetings. Her work has included time in early childhood settings and internships at an LGBTQ+ center, which inform her sensitivity to different life situations. She draws on experience with a wide range of concerns from grief and parenting stress to body image and career questions.

Brittany also supports people facing trauma, attachment issues, and co-occurring conditions. She often uses approaches that focus on changing unhelpful thinking and addressing the impact of trauma. In-session work can include talking through problems, practicing coping skills, and planning small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning.

People who prefer clear, goal-focused guidance tend to do well with her style. Her manner is straightforward but compassionate, and she encourages practical steps that fit each person’s life.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It helps when anxiety, low mood, or patterns like avoidance get in the way of daily life. Sessions often include practice tasks and simple exercises between meetings to build new habits.

Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on addressing the effects of traumatic events and their emotional impact. Work in this approach typically involves safe, paced processing of difficult memories and learning coping tools to reduce reactivity and improve day-to-day functioning.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Brittany will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She explains options and adjusts plans as therapy progresses so the work stays practical and focused.

Online formats include video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skills practice, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can be useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options aim to make it simpler to get consistent support without long commutes.
