Welcome! I’m Brittaneyrose, a licensed therapist serving clients in the Michigan and DMV area. My approach to therapy is collaborative, where the real transformation happens both inside and outside our sessions. I encourage self-work (homework) to empower you, because the growth is yours to claim. My role is to help you make sense of your journey and bring clarity to what you’re experiencing. I specialize in supporting women ages 21-65 who are navigating life post-breakup or divorce. I also work with married couples looking to repair and strengthen their relationships through the transformative process of Marriage Therapy.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by the challenges in your life? If so, you're not alone, and you're in the right place. I work with individuals just like you who are ready to take the first step toward healing, even if it feels a little scary. You might be navigating the effects of past trauma or abuse, struggling with depression or anxiety, or feeling uncertain during a big life transition. Maybe you're carrying self-doubt, feeling disconnected from the people you care about, or unsure how to move forward. Whatever you're going through, you don’t have to face it alone.

Usually, when we're facing challenges that feel overwhelming, we crave understanding and acceptance...someone who will listen, provide support and stand side by side with us as we navigate our way through murky waters. We also long for relief from whatever is causing us pain - from harmful behaviors or confusing situations to emotions or thoughts that feel out of control. We want to feel better and to be free - free to take pleasure in the joys and triumphs of our lives and free to live our lives with the confidence that we have the tools and resources to cope with whatever pain may appear.

Are you in an unhealthy relationship? Is it hard for you to set boundaries with significant others? Do you have difficulty making decisions? Doubting yourself or feeling like an imposter can make tough times (and difficult decisions) even tougher. I can help you explore and develop a greater understanding and appreciation of your authentic self. Our bodies do keep the score, so it’s vital to connect mind and body. Unprocessed trauma can block that connection. Once our nervous system is regulated, everything seems to fall into place: Anxiety decreases, as does pain perception, while cognitive and creative capabilities increase.

For the past 20 years, I've helped women and teen girls unlock trauma in their bodies. I understand you are always so strong and support everyone you know. Sometimes, it is you that is needing support and a listening ear, but where are all the people for you? The aftermath of a traumatic experience can leave you feeling out of control, withdrawn, uncertain about the world and people around you. The depression may have you feeling as though you are not thinking straight or so down that you just can’t get dressed nor be productive. The anxiety may have you so overwhelmed that you feel stuck and unable to complete your daily tasks.

Infidelity? Porn addiction? Sex addiction? Love Addiction? Trauma? I have specialized training so that you're not wasting your time and money. Not just talk, talk, talk that gets you nowhere. I used evidence-based treatments so that you're feeling better soon. As a Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), a Certified Partner Trauma Therapist (CPTT), and a Certified Multiple Addiction Therapist (CMAT), I'm trained in many addictions and compulsive behavior, as well as substance addictions. Most therapists aren't trained in all these issues. I offer EMDR trauma therapy, as well. There is hope.
