There is a myriad of ways we humans suffer - anxiety, depression, loss and grief, hurtful relationships, trauma and its aftermath, intolerable feelings of shame, guilt, loneliness and sadness, parental challenges, addictions, panic attacks, confusion, disappointments, and on and on. And..., it takes courage to seek help. It would be my privilege to offer you a warm and safe space to freely speak and to be.

I love to help clients identify and break harmful patterns of behavior and work towards a healthier, more sustainable, balance that improves their lives. My style is compassionate, yet direct and transparent. I see problematic behaviors as coping mechanisms for underlying stressors/emotional experiences that need processing. I have extensive experience working with clients with eating disorders and addictions. As a former HS teacher, I enjoy working with young adults. I believe that relationships heal. In every case, I consider clients' contexts, which have great impact on their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Mindfulness practice is built-in to my approach.

I am a neurodivergent and queer therapist who enjoys working with motivated folks that are seeking to build satisfaction, authenticity, and fulfillment in their lives. Many of those that I have worked with have faced challenges related to life-transitions, neurodivergence, LGBTQIA+ identity, systemic oppression, interpersonal relationships, and trauma. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a collaboration between client and therapist; ultimately, that you, the client, are the expert in their own life.

I believe that we have all of the tools in us already to make the change we desire. Therapy can serve to identify and access those tools, offering a place to create a safe relationship to explore and strengthen sense of self and work through challenges.
In my relational approach to treatment, I strive to find a balance, reduce suffering, and work toward the change the individual desires. I work with general anxiety & health anxiety, grief & loss, and depression & stress — because it’s difficult to be human. I help people realize they can tolerate difficulty through empowering them to find a way through.

Hi, I’m Brittany. I support individuals navigating trauma and chronic nervous system dysregulation, including many who are neurodivergent. I approach neurodivergence as a natural and valuable expression of human diversity, while also recognizing that living in a world that is often misaligned, overwhelming, or invalidating can create layers of stress and trauma for neurodivergent people. My work is grounded in somatic- and trauma-informed treatment approaches, with additional training in ADHD- and neurodiversity-affirming care and a deep understanding of how neurodiversity, autism and trauma intersect.

I specialize in relationships, trauma and anxiety. I do individual psychotherapy and coaching work. My intention is to provide a safe, warm, nonjudgmental relationship in which people can change. I help people understand their feelings, needs, beliefs, perceptual frames and behavior to make significant and lasting change. Specific areas of expertise: Anxiety, Narcissistic abuse, ADHD, PTSD, NEVER feeing good enough, and those that have had difficult and less than nurturing relationships with parents and family members. I am a great fit for people who want a supportive, collaborative partner who will help them do the work.

You may be a young adult or adult feeling stuck in anxiety, depression, or relationship stress—or part of a couple struggling with communication, emotional distance, or recurring conflict. You want therapy that goes beyond surface solutions and helps you better understand yourself and your relationships.

My background includes extensive work with children and families, including conduct disorder and ODD, which informs a strong understanding of attachment and family dynamics.

Welcome! I work with adults of all ages feeling motivated to change their lives through a willingness to explore their inner worlds. I help people navigate problems like chronic pain, chronic illness, relationship challenges, anxiety, grief and loss, and life transitions. Regardless of the specifics of what brings you to therapy, it’s often the hardest-to-shake habits—like perfectionism, self-criticism, “going along to get along,” or not prioritizing yourself in your life—that we focus on in therapy. My overarching goal is always to help my clients reconnect to and reclaim the power in their vulnerability.
