She treats sessions as a collaborative effort where the client is seen as the expert on their own life.
How Britt works
Britt looks for strengths and small wins to build momentum. Conversations focus on realistic skills and clear next steps rather than jargon or long lectures. In sessions she addresses concerns such as ADHD-related focus challenges, grief, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue.
She also helps people with relationship and family problems, parenting strain, and life transitions. Additional areas of attention include attachment issues, body image, isolation, and finding life purpose. Britt’s approach is practical and grounded.
She supports people working through guilt, shame, emptiness, and social anxiety with straightforward tools they can try between sessions. She also assists caregivers and those managing intellectual disability issues in their networks by focusing on coping strategies and realistic problem solving. Her practice is based in Minnesota and she works in English.
Britt encourages small, steady steps and offers a calm, direct style aimed at making daily life feel more manageable.

Practical therapeutic approaches and online care
Many clients benefit from evidence-based approaches that focus on skills and problem solving. One common approach emphasizes building concrete coping strategies to manage anxiety and depression, breaking down overwhelming problems into smaller steps and teaching breathing, grounding, and activity planning techniques to reduce distress.Another helpful method centers on improving attention and daily routines for people with focus or ADHD-related struggles. This approach uses structure, short goal-setting, and simple organization tools to strengthen concentration and motivate follow-through on tasks.
Choosing the best way to work together is collaborative. The therapist will review concerns, goals, and preferences with each person and suggest approaches to try. Clients and the therapist adjust methods over time based on what proves most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and more natural conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and live chat or text messaging are useful for brief check-ins or when writing helps process thoughts. These options make it easier to maintain regular sessions and try strategies in real time.
