About Brittany

She uses straightforward listening, validation, and empathy to help people manage strong emotions and regain control. Brittany has 11 years of experience and works from Missouri as an LCSW.
Brittany helps people set clear goals and learn skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability. She guides conversations about what brought someone to therapy and creates a plan tuned to that person’s needs.
How Brittany works
Sessions aim to teach tools for emotional regulation, coping with grief, and addressing substance use or legal involvement when relevant. Her approach centers on respectful, nonjudgmental work. Brittany offers active listening and feedback so people feel heard and understood.
She draws on client-centered methods to let each person’s priorities lead the plan. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when emotional regulation and impulsivity are a concern.
Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people clarify goals and take small, practical steps forward. People who choose Brittany can expect collaborative planning and concrete skill practice. She supports work on sleep problems, low self-esteem, family conflict, anger, and coping with major life changes.
The aim is to leave sessions with usable strategies and clearer next steps.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Brittany uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to guide online sessions. Client-centered work means the conversation centers on the person’s goals and priorities, with the therapist listening and reflecting to help clarify what matters most. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills for emotional regulation and impulsivity when needed. That approach teaches concrete coping skills such as distress tolerance and emotion regulation strategies that can be practiced between sessions. Together, these methods help people build clear steps and measurable goals in a collaborative way. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Brittany will discuss options and tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. The process is collaborative so the plan can change as progress is made or goals shift. Online therapy offers practical flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations, phone sessions need less bandwidth, and live chat or text messaging can support shorter check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit consistent work into daily life and keep momentum on skill practice.Start online instead of waiting
