Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Brittany commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns, try different behaviors, and track what changes in daily life. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and some stress-related problems.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy for people whose past experiences affect their current functioning. This approach helps process difficult memories and reduce their impact on mood, relationships, and daily routines. Work is paced to each person's needs and comfort level.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Brittany will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then choose or combine methods that fit. That collaboration helps tailor sessions to what the person wants to accomplish.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for deeper exchanges, while phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging support ongoing contact, brief reflections, and short check-ins between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and keep continuity when schedules change.
