Background and approach

In that role she worked with more than 15,000 patients and their families, gaining experience with complex care needs and system navigation. Earlier work included early childhood interventions for families affected by trauma and chronic stress. Those roles focused on practical skills for caregivers and children to build safety and routine after disruptive events.

This shaped a practice that pays attention to how stress affects daily life and parenting. Her approach is grounded in a strengths-based, client-centered view. That means sessions are guided by the person's goals and real-life challenges.

She mixes structured techniques with flexible conversation to match what each person needs. Brittney combines clinical knowledge with creative problem solving. She offers short-term strategies and longer-term support depending on the situation.

People can expect a practical, compassionate style focused on clear steps and real change.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in the room. The therapist listens closely and follows the client’s goals, helping them build on strengths and practical resources. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches specific skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people understand and shift patterns in close relationships by naming feelings and rebuilding connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they choose methods and adjust the plan as needs change, so care stays practical and collaborative.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer brief check-ins, homework support, or a way to stay connected between longer sessions. These options increase flexibility and help people keep therapy consistent around work, family, and travel.
