Background and approach
Phobias are one of the concerns she lists among her practice areas. In sessions she listens closely and uses validation to create a nonjudgmental space. She helps clients set goals and learn skills to manage emotions and reduce symptoms.
Conversations focus on concrete steps a person can use between sessions. Brittany has experience supporting people with legal system involvement and related challenges. She pays attention to how practical issues and emotions interact, and works to make improvements feel realistic and doable.
Her approach includes collaboration on a treatment plan tailored to each person. She encourages small, achievable goals and regular check-ins on progress. The aim is a better day-to-day experience and greater control over challenging feelings.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and respected. It focuses on the client's own goals and feelings and helps people gain insight and confidence to make changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical techniques to shift unhelpful patterns, especially for anxiety, depression, and phobias.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Brittany will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods that fit. Together they decide whether to try skill practice from CBT, a supportive Client-Centered stance, or a mix of approaches based on how things progress.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text messaging support quick check-ins, shorter updates, or ongoing skill reminders between longer sessions. These options make scheduling easier and let people choose what works best for their routine and comfort.
