Counseling Style

Brittany is a licensed mental health counselor, who is skilled in providing therapy to individual’s ages 3-18 years old. She believes in a child-centered approach, and creating a safe therapeutic space that is most successful when a strong relationship is formed. She embraces and accepts each child’s individual differences, which helps to bond with clients in a unique way.

Working with youth and the neurodivergent population, Brittany understands the importance of advocating for her clients, even when they are unable to do so for themselves. Brittany also recognizes that it is essential to work with parents/caregivers in order to create and implement treatment goals of the individuals she works with.
