About Brittany

Brittany is a licensed independent social worker, LISW, practicing in Ohio. She stepped away from full-time social work to raise her children and has returned to practice after several years at home.
How Brittany works
That parenting experience shaped her perspective and informs how she approaches support and problem solving. Her work is straightforward and strengths-based. She listens first, then helps people set small, practical goals.
Sessions often include learning skills for anxiety, practicing new ways to handle conflict, and making step-by-step plans for change. Brittany uses client-centered techniques to focus on each person's values and goals. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, to help identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and to build healthier habits.
People who meet with Brittany can expect a warm, empathetic style and a focus on real-life solutions. She advocates for her clients and works to make therapy feel useful and achievable. If someone feels she might be a good fit, the next step is a brief matching process to arrange sessions.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead. In practice this means sessions focus on a person's values and goals, with the therapist reflecting concerns and helping clarify next steps. It is useful for people facing grief, parenting stress, or life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches concrete skills to manage anxiety and mood symptoms. Sessions involve identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing them, and trying new behaviors. CBT can help with panic attacks, ADHD-related routines, and managing bipolar symptoms alongside other supports.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods to try based on the person's goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as progress is made or new challenges arise.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for full conversations and visual cues, while phone sessions are useful when less bandwidth is available. Chat or messaging can fit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or in-between support and can make scheduling easier for busy parents and professionals.
