My Approach
Need an experienced caring professional to support you through life's challenges? My name is Brittany and I want to work with you in achieving your goal to make life better. I work with diverse clients including children, teens and adults. I specialize in working with anxiety, depression, ADHD, family and relationship dynamics and navigating through life transitions. Therapy sessions are collaborative, meaning I work with clients to figure out helpful and practical strategies that are tailored to their goals. My goal is to work with you to build on your current strengths and resilience to help you navigate life's challenges.
​
It is important that you find a therapist that is the right fit for you. What you can expect in the therapeutic relationship with me is an emphasis on empathy, building connection and trust so that I can come alongside and support you in achieving your goal.
For my own mental health practice, I believe in utilizing communication and expression through talk therapy, creative arts including music, art and physical movement to experience calming and self-soothing through nature. I integrate these methods into my work with clients to provide a holistic approach to experiencing therapy and improving mental, emotional and physical well-being.
