Looking for help managing emotions? I am here to help. Finding the right counselor can be challenging. It is something that should be done in a safe, non-judgmental environment that is individualized to meet your needs to help you feel validated and understood. I aim to help provide you with tools to use in combination with your strengths to improve your mental state. When you reach out for help I will return every call or email.
As a licensed social worker for over 11 years, I specialize in helping individuals with anxiety, depression, OCD, phobias, relationship distress, and stress and time management issues in both English and Spanish. My experience has extended from community centers, in home therapy and integrative medical settings with underserved communities. I have also worked for many years with domestic violence victims and immigrants. A variety of types of therapy are utilized including Behavioral Activation, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Focused Treatment, and Problem-Solving techniques.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Brittanie was thoughtful and attentive to my concerns. She really makes you feel heard/listened to and offered valuable insight at each session. I would absolutely recommend brittanie
Brittanie is very attentive to my problems and needs, and is super proactive on coming up with ways of helping me see a clearer vision, cope better and navigate them with more understanding. She’s also always positive and keeps up that energy through the sessions, which makes me feel even that much more confident of her help

Very helpful
Been working with Brittanie for a couple weeks and she’s so caring and really takes the time to listen and understand your struggles. She’s kind and makes therapy feel like you’re taking to a best friend. Would recommend her to anyone.
Brittanie is truly wonderful. She passes no judgement, allows me to speak freely, & always seems to know exactly what I need from our sessions.
I have really enjoyed working with brittanie thus far and hope to continue to be able to attend therapy with her for as long as needed.
Love Brittanie! She’s very understanding and had helped me a ton.
Brittanie became my therapist when I really needed someone to listen and to help me through some twists and turns. She is supportive, kind, and understanding. I feel safe and heard.
10/10. Only our second session but I can tell Brittanie has hope for me and wants to see me be the best person I can be! Thank you Brittanie!!!
She is a great listener. Ask great questions to make me think and helpful tools which help me to reach my goals.
I have worked with therapists before with some success but once life events as well as current events occurred, I realized I needed to work with someone who might be better suited to help me. Brittanie has been an excellent listener, very patient when I am talking and really tries to understand my concerns. She has also equipped me with tools and "homework" that I can work on in-between our sessions together. It has been a very valuable and helpful experience for me working with Brittanie thus far.
Brittanie was extremely helpful for me. I had not tried therapy in decades, and was leery of trying it again. I liked her style, where she listened intently, but also gave me some helpful feedback. Highly recommend.
Brittanie is kind, knowledgeable, compassionate, and really takes the time to connect with her clients. I trust her with my issues. I am thoroughly impressed with her ability to help me reach my goals.
