About Brittany
Dr. Brittany Collins uses a client-centered and skills-based approach to help people manage fear, anxiety, and life transitions. She keeps sessions straightforward and focused on practical steps.
She speaks plainly and helps clients name problems and try new ways of coping. Dr. Collins holds LPC and LPCC credentials and brings ten years of clinical work to her practice.
She blends cognitive behavioral techniques with emotion-focused conversations to help people change unhelpful thoughts and strengthen important relationships.
Background and approach
That often means practicing new skills between sessions and checking what works. She also draws on dialectical behavior ideas when emotions feel overwhelming, teaching grounding and distress-tolerance strategies. Her background includes working with adults who face stress, grief, depression, identity concerns, and trauma and abuse.
She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, blended family challenges, body image worries, and problems tied to family of origin or relationship patterns. Dr. Collins favors short, clear goals and regular progress checks.
Sessions aim to build skills that fit daily life, like communication techniques and emotion regulation tools. People who are unsure which approach will help are invited to try different methods and decide what fits best. Work with her often includes video, phone, or messaging and can be paced around school, work, and caregiving demands.
The overall goal is better functioning day to day and more confidence managing fears and stressful situations.
Approach-driven care online and by phone
Dr. Collins often combines client-centered work with cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on a person's own goals, helping them feel heard and involved in decisions. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems like anxiety and phobias going, and teaches practical skills to change those patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy provides tools for managing intense feelings and staying steady during distressing moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust the plan based on what helps. That means you can test different techniques and keep what supports progress for you.
Online work is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit your life. Video calls let you talk face to face when schedules align. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or a good option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging allow brief updates, between-session coaching, or flexible check-ins when it's hard to arrange a call. These options aim to make consistent therapy more practical for busy days and varied routines.
