Background and approach
Sessions are practical and paced to match what a client needs in the moment rather than following a strict script. Brittany uses a mix of approaches to suit different needs. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to the person in front of her.
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts. She also incorporates skills from dialectical behavior therapy and mindfulness to teach emotion regulation and present-moment coping. Her background includes five years of professional experience in clinical settings.
Brittany holds an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor credential - LCPC - and has worked with people dealing with trauma, parenting strain, chronic illness stress, and attachment-related concerns. She welcomes clients who want a collaborative, steady therapist presence. People often come to her looking for clearer coping steps and steadier daily routines.
She focuses on simple, usable strategies so progress can show up between sessions.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-centered therapy puts the person’s priorities at the center of each session. The therapist listens closely, follows what matters most, and helps people use their existing strengths to tackle fears and daily stress. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches specific tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. These methods often help with anxiety, phobias, insomnia, and mood shifts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will help people try different techniques and choose what fits best with their goals, needs, and personal style. Sessions are collaborative and adapt as progress and priorities change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill teaching. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer quick check-ins, short coaching, and extra support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum during life changes.
