About Brittany

If you believe in science we will get along!

My work has mostly been focused on high-intensity needs patients throughout my career. On the average day I am helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, trauma, and addiction, as well as family dynamics issues.

I specialize in supporting people dealing with communication difficulties, social anxiety, panic disorder, depression, OCD, and posttraumatic stress. I also work with clients facing major life transitions; divorce, midlife changes, and other disruptive events.

Many previous patients have benefited from interventions focused on addressing workplace stress, caregiver burnout, and other chronic stress concerns.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based practice and tailored to each client’s unique needs. I’m committed to creating a nonjudgmental, affirming space where you feel heard and supported. I work with young adults, women navigating life’s complexities, LGBTQ+ individuals, first responders, and families navigating blended family dynamics, adoption, and foster care experiences.

I believe therapy is a collaborative journey, and I’m honored to walk alongside you as you work toward greater clarity, resilience, and well-being.
