Meet Brittany

As someone who has experienced adversity and then, thankfully, healing, I understand and respect the courage it takes to begin the journey of personal growth and healing. My passion for counseling stems from my own therapeutic journey and the positive change that it brought about in my life. I’ll never forget how my counselors supported me during my most vulnerable moments, and my hope is to offer that same kind of presence to others. That’s what led me to continue my education in clinical mental health counseling.

I have always gravitated toward helping others and been drawn to understanding people’s stories. I hold a safe and accepting space, so everyone can feel supported to navigate life’s challenges. I work with individuals, children, and couples, and my goal is to create a supportive relationship built on compassion and understanding. I draw from person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral tools, and mindfulness practices to meet clients where they are and guide their own journey.

In my free time, I love to be in nature hiking, paddleboarding, or just sitting by the creek. I love spending quality time with my husband, two kids, and dogs.

I believe healing happens in relationships and in the context of our lived experiences, identities, and communities. My path to clinical work has been shaped by systems-level thinking and community-based support roles, which deepened my commitment to helping people feel seen, supported, and more confident navigating life’s challenges. 

In therapy, I aim to provide a calm, collaborative space to explore what feels stuck and to build practical tools for change. My approach is trauma informed and strengths based, grounded in curiosity and compassion. I draw from narrative-informed and mindfulness-based strategies, motivational interviewing, and relational work to support clients in deepening self-awareness, improving emotion regulation, and strengthening connection with self and others. 

I am especially passionate about affirming care for LGBTQIA+ clients and supporting people navigating anxiety, stress, shame, life transitions, identity exploration, and relationship concerns. Outside of sessions, I value community, time outdoors, and practices that support steadiness and intention in daily life. 

I have always been drawn to understanding people, their experiences, and the ways our relationships and environments shape who we are. My passion for mental health grew through my own personal experiences with therapy and through working with children, where I saw the importance of having a safe, supportive space to feel heard and understood. These experiences ultimately led me to pursue my Master of Social Work with a focus on clinical practice at the University of Denver.

I am especially passionate about working with children, adolescents, and young adults as they navigate life transitions, relationships, and emotional challenges. I believe that every person brings their own unique experiences and strengths into the therapeutic space, and I really value creating an environment that feels warm, welcoming, and free of judgment. As an intern, I am excited to continue developing my clinical skills while building meaningful and supportive relationships with clients!

Outside of my professional and academic life, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, reading, practicing yoga, hiking, and being outdoors. I also love spending time with animals and am always happy when there is a dog nearby.
